I enjoy watching my passengers stick their hands out when I late brake into a curve.

We have an excellent time this weekend. Many thanks to Phil for organizing the event.

Good information. It looks like R1R is a good compromise street/track tire for 16 inch wheels.

Where is the roll bar?

I assume this luxury version has power steering, heated seats, and tilted wheel. I see it still has the manual turn signal switch.

I used a dry absorbed glass mat battery by Extreme from Battery Plus. It is about half the size of the Caterham original battery and cheaper than the Odessey. There is no acid to spill and you can mount it in any position.

Brad, they all do that, sir. Both of my Caterham are a little balky getting into first sometimes.

Ken and I attended the Texas Supra/GTR track day at Grandsport Speedway to play with the horsepower boys. http://www.netviper.com/gs318/

The Hankook Rs2 205/45-16 with treadwear of 200 works on my SV. I have been thinking go to 195/50-16. The Yoko factory rep told me that their tires are oversized.

The VW van is my hero. Embarrassed all the fancy supercars with alphabet begins with "F", "L", and "P". It is the ultimate nerd car.

At our last track day, the lightest car is Ken's Fireblade Caterham at 900 pounds and the heaviest car is a Nissan GTR at 3,800 pounds.

The three Seven you saw at the last meet were Ken and me. The lime green Caterham is my wife's car. I have a silver Caterham with yellow nose.

Welcome. Ken and I are in west Houston. Come to Uptown Coffee and Car next Saturday. We should be bringing our Caterham if the weather cooperates.

The GPS from the sporting good stores or installed in an automobile should get you within 100 to 300 yards. I used them in my work but the surveying grade GPS with an accuracy of 5 mm accuracy cost between $ 22,000 to $ 28,000. GPS was originally developed by Department of Defense to launch missiles and rockets. Therefore pinpoint accuracy is not that critical. In recent years, DOD has turned off the scrambling codes allowing civilans to receive signals without purchasing expense hardware and software unless one needs surveying grade accuracy. This is reason the price of GPS has dropped down to the hundred dollars range. But one needs to remember that the little handheld device is only good for general navigation.

Send the low lifes to Haiti to go insdie the buildings to retrieve the bodies.

One advice is to know where the VIN number is located and take several pictures. This way you can point it to the inspector so he/she does not waste time searching for the VIN.

Skip: picture of the Brooklands on your SV??

Wow, travel with real comfort.

All participants have a smiling face from the wonderful friendship and great driving roads. Many thanks to Phil for organizing the event.

I checked both Caterham. The "his" car with the regular Zetec and the "her" car with the SVT have the identical curve pipe with "S" hose.
