Yeti 2.5tfsi The Twins. (And Yeti RS)

[Ally_bassman]

But I wont... Because it's a really annoying meme of Michael Jackson eating popcorn at the movies!

Annoying? MJ is shocked!

No Doubt in my mind that Richard knows how to throw a car around a track.

Not as good as me though.... ;-p

Silly me, keep forgetting that it is not allowed to question BossFox on Briskoda.

 

As for the HowFast times you seem to be so hung up upon it looks like you forgotten (seem to remember my burning brakes though) that no matter how hard you tried ( you took all seats out half way through the session and you almost rolled it exiting the last turn!) in your red mapped Yeti on RS-R's, lowered and with DS2500 pads you were still slower than me in my few months old completely standard vRS on factory useless rubber LOL.

 

But enough of that, I am not welcome here so I will leave you to your fun club, enjoy platitudes

 

You seem to have forgotten that I have only taken my remapped diesel Yeti there on factory supplied road tyres.  Which you just called factory useless.  And it's not lowered.

The red diesel Yeti has never been tracked on anything other than it's OEM road rubber.

Bit of a news flash there.  Diesel Yeti 1,500kg+ without the driver not as quick as DSG Fabia VRS in the dry.  Skoda will be relieved.

 

You also seem to have forgotten our conversation about that last turn when the car decided to activate the ESP as it doesn't like a little slip angle at 70mph+.

Claiming "almost rolled" does make it sound far more interesting though.

 

But glad you have found something to affirm your racing driver status.

Maybe now you are secure in your expert status you can go and spam other people's threads and leave mine alone.

 

Once you have contacted the TT shop and EVO of course to set them straight.

Why am I reading this with a stupid grin on my face. Everyone is looking at me....

"Just read a funny email" Is what I told my colleagues!

 

Gotta' love Brisky on a Friday.

[Jonny5ive]

It'll be a new page soon.

New Page = New Pics

It's almost Law!!

[Wardy]

I remember when this was a build thread....

Good to hear progress continues Richard; look forward to seeing this in the flesh at some point.

[nbJubilee]

Be nice to each other Guys. You all know my 60ps Citigo can beat you all (in my mind anyway) AND my fellow OAP's in their electric buggies!

Admins could edit out some of these comments, or mine.

Nah, I reckon my 68hp Felicia pickup will destroy you in a race

One way to settle it. Same car, same track, same conditions.

Equal opportunities that way.

One person sets a lap time. Then the 2nd.

FGF 1.4 16v anyone?

[32KOFDATA]

There is nothing to settle... Who wants one?  :beer:

[ickleginge]

I'm also look forward to the videos Mr Fox, just a shame I can't make it there on the day.

[kilted]

Wishing I was closer to see and hear the beast in action.

 

Will have to settle for watching the videos I guess.

Yes.

Test drive verdict is that it goes well and nothing odd going on.

Off for mapping next week.

So in seven days we should be all done!

WooHoo!!!

[Brimma]

WooHoo!!!

Or several months if you get a 'proper' map

[Dark_Hero]

Someone been in the sun too long this afternoon?

I check in to see fantastic news about the mechanicals being completed and a google whacking f1 tech brings on the hate.

Not cool!

Really looking forward to this now, so close to completion

[sdenny]

That's great news - you must be itching to get it back

[nbJubilee]

I think I should help bed the engine in before she goes for mapping. Shall I offer to put a few hundred miles on to run the motor in? You are too busy and would welcome help. Maybe?

 I beat Jabo in the same car, standard as it left the dealer, so moving on now.    http://www.howfast.co.uk/leaderboard.aspx

 

 Can't wait to see the Yeti in action at CC.

[Damo]

Right. Had enough of this now. Seems my earlier warning was ignored.

 

Keep it on topic or posts will just get deleted.

 

Hate to have to intervene like this, but it is getting out of hand now.

 

No more I'm faster than you blah blah blah

 

Thanks

To be honest it's the most excited I've been about a car in ages.

It's taken me far too long to get to sleep the last two nights.

[Dark_Hero]

Not surprised, the prospect of a super car beating SUV is exciting enough for anyone to lose sleep over

Have you taken it out as it is?

Thank you for the offer but it's got 40k miles on it already.

[TeflonTom]

Right, enough of the potty talk, friendly warnings have been given by other mods already here, so stop ruining up this project topic with pointless drivel. Thanks.

[r1chardh]

Great to hear this is nearly done - it seems to have happened impressively quickly, which seems appropriate! Best of luck with the last bits and bobs.

[Skoda_Saint]

Well it was quick enough last time... let alone now. I can't wait to see the finished product on the track and road.... just not in my rear view mirror coming up behind me at Coombe, but that I'm sure will happen... I hope to be just quick enough not to be lapped multiple times.
