Nice Si, you appear to have given the RS its first wash since you bought it! I can say the brakes are pretty good and the exhaust is a bit anti-social to say the least.

I'd like to know what DV that is too. Lovely bit of chatter you had going on when it was only slightly boosting. Sounds amazing on boost!

Turbosmart V dump valve.
Could be the fact that the turbo has a 85mm comp wheel.

Well if its dry the R888 grip in all gears apart from 1st. In the clip the road is wet so slight slip in third. It does supprise you just how much grip it does get. Johnys voice also sugests that he too is supprised.

Been away from my post for some while, thought I better update it.
So signed up for this years Time Attack championship. Scored some points in the first round but not too many as stock engine mounts failed, but did score some non the less.
Second round Knockhill.
Which I won my class.
Still not that fast, but when you consider that the car weights 1480kg with me in and I turned the power down to 455bhp giving a power to weight ratio of 307bhp/ton, my best lap was 60.4 sec of Knockhill.
Plan is to totally strip the car, work on the cooling package to allow me to turn up the power.
So loose 90kg then turn up the egine to 500bhp that will give 360bhp/ton.
Some random pics.
