Just had a read of that, throughly enjoyable stuff. I'd love to get into racing when I'm a bit older and have some spare cash (hopefully!) Me and a few friends are thinking of doing one of those banger rallies around Europe next Summer. I know it's not quite the same but slightly cheaper I'd imagine.

Are you looking at joining that BMW championship Miles?

Based on some of the videos and the people down there (have a look at the vid in the videos section), hell yeah! The RX7 stalling on the grid then overtaking most of the field... !Removed! hell.

There's plenty of stuff you can do now if you do some research Andrew, all needing a bit of cash but it's got to be worth saving a few beer tokens for a bit of karting or towards your license  

My wife has a 05 reg Fiesta Zetec 1.4 TDCi with a relatively low mileage (40k).
We had wheel wobble issues when braking that started last year.
Took car to local independent to have discs and pads replaced in Oct 09, problem resolved.
Problem recurred in Jan 10 so took car back and got discs and pads replaced FOC.
Problem back again now but only when braking from between 30 and 50 mph.  High and low speed braking seems OK.
It can't be right to go thorugh discs and pads so quickly so is there some other problem?
Also, major steering wobble at 60  to 70 mph but that may be a separate balancing issue.
Any advice welcome......

Check wheel balancing maybe? My tracking is out after hitting all the potholes in East Anglia, which means my tyres have worn un-evenly, which means I get steering wheel vibrations. It is also noticable breaking heavily.

Interesting... anyone else had experience with this?

He did, don't you worry

I'll point him in the direction of this thread as he's too lazy to check the forums, he keeps up with the goss via me  

Thank you all! And yes Mike I did make Flic work a bit for a change today

Micheal I'm instructed to ask you not to be mean to Flic
