No worries, I have booked Oulton Park for November and I might go to Castle Combe, although this is a big might as my car is not a Skoda..... Jason might not notice :nerd:

I've got some old Skoda badges somewhere :)

Stick an octavia badge on the boot and no one will notice :)

Great pics Charlie and a very nippy car. I always knew me pushing you round Combe would be short lived!!

Thanks again for the help changing wheels in the dark and the loan of compressor etc.

I'm planning to keep 1.2 badges on mine :):notme:

I got them second hand from Josh H for £35. These are 20mm bolt on spacers.

You can get them from £60 or so from sites like dpm performance

In the meantime I have prepared a replacement

Smoke was under control ;)

Smoke was under control ;)

Good to see you too mate. Your beard is pretty Impressive :)

The drive home was fantastic :) I was giggling like a child most of the way :D

The extra power is brilliant. It really puts the diff to the test.

Your car was looking good. How did it do after I left?

I'll add some of the videos and pics tomorrow. But first of all sleep is needed! Been up 22 hours and had under 4 hours sleep.

Lmao, cant beat a wispy beard :D

 

We had a few runs to get a some test files for karl. Only really went down to get things checked over but as you witnessed, they like to keep improving things lol.

I got a video or two of your car, send me your mobile number via pm if you want them mate. Sent them to Dean so he may have forwarded them on to you.

 

We be good to see how you compete at castle combe now ;)

I'd really recommend the lads at dirty torque, they've done a fantastic job. Dean is very enthusiastic and Karl is very thorough when it comes to the mapping.

I was happy after map number 2 but Karl kept revising it and after number 5 he was happy. I'm absolutely blown away by how it drives.

Added 17bhp and almost 70lbs ft torque

So you're running roughly 220bhp and 370lb/ft? Or have I miscalculated? :)

Hope it drives as well and with no more smoke.
