I'll reserve comment for the time i can actually see & drive the thing but as it's designed by the Renault sports division i'm quite sure it will have a more than capable chassis.

especially, as a sometime total cock, Nottm can't drive his atm because the DBW throttle is ... well ... throttled

As a Narf*ck dweller, the city scum and self styled gentry of Nore-wich, I avoid as much as possible.

The 350 has a DBW throttle. Still nerfed in 1st/2nd but since I put a switch in to turn off the IMU, it's hilarious. It's gotten that bad I'm drifting into parking spaces now because I can.

The pic below was all afternoon because the Marshall said he was bored when we were at lunch

Yep, tyres are still good. I'm running Federal RSR595s and have done 4k miles on them now. £75 a go for a 245/40/18 which is great. They are hopeless on the cold/wet though

Were you running Avon ACB10s on the Seven?
