    Bathroom Extraction - Inline out of roof

    Looking at the vent picture, that is the exact same vent cover I use, but I cut two of them into the roof of our bathroom. I actually modified the vent covers, removing every other ring, which changed the pitch of the airflow noise a lot. Not as visually appealing of course, what happens to the...

    Sim racers - what are you running?

    Well, I think I might just about have this assembled by Christmas at this rate - :D No idea when I am going to find the time to getting around to finishing the build, but I like my "Wall O' Pegboard" at least! :D

    Sim racers - what are you running?

    I have to say, on the main occasion where I had to call them to check on an order, I got a guy on the phone at TR who was extremely helpful, patient and professional. He swapped out a couple of parts for me, confirmed lead times etc. quickly and I was very happy. However, there were occasions...

    Sim racers - what are you running?

    I was fairly lucky with Trak Racer and stock when getting my setup, but did phone them to check on a couple of bits and swap out parts I ordered when the lead times were too long. Regarding Fanatec, I couldn't bring myself to go into their ecosphere, too much negative/meh talk out there about...

    YouTube Premium

    I too had to do a monthly Youtube Prem sub via Ukraine today after my annual sub via India expired and they cottoned on to doing it that way. Annoying having to do it monthly now, but found that I had £50 on my Starling Bank card that I had no memory of, so that will at least be put to good use :D

    Car at bodyshop, workers decided to take for jolly up

    I had this happen with my first RS6 (non-standard, pretty well modded at that time) when she was left at a bodyshop for a very small repair. Friends phoned me to ask if the car had been stolen as they had seen her being totally thrashed around local country lanes and strangers behind the wheel...

    Sim racers - what are you running?

    "Universal Dual-Lock Seat Slider Kit × 1" on the order receipt and on the product page - " What's Included - Dual Locking Seat Slider" :) If you follow the instructions to the letter, the spacings when bolting the mounting rails down are gapped for the TR seats, not the Sparco spacing. I had to...

    Beautiful. I considered one of these before I played it all sensible and got my 3rd RS6....

    Sim racers - what are you running?

    It was a little bit of a fiddle, but I was able to fit the R333 seat to the rig with the included "TR80-SLIDER2" part.

    Sim racers - what are you running?

    Here's the start of my efforts. So much stuff is out of stock currently, no idea when it will be complete. I have a small outbuilding office, gutted the rear desk/project area and slapped a Trak Racer TR160 Mk4 frame in there, with a Sparco R333 seat. Due to space, I will be most likely going...

    Having the gearbox/Torque Convertor finally say enough just before/around the start of Covid was really poor timing. It was almost impossible for me to get the specialist I wanted to get the work done throughout 2020, then I was looking at uprated turbos etc. etc while the engine was out. A hell...

    Does anyone have a favourite airline?

    I always try to get a window pod with BA and wifey gets stuck on the isle pod. The last time I went, I had mum on a middle aisle pod, wifey on the other middle pod and I kept my darling daughter under control in the two middle pods :D. Agreed on all your observations for the BA and Virgin seating.

    Cheers but I am not worried. I work mostly at home and there are multiple motion-tracking CCTV cameras watching the cars at home and that exact spot I parked in at work. Barrier etc. too in a different part of the office car park where I usually park :).

    Lets talk cruises

    I didn't say it was 100% true at all, but it sure made me chuckle! :cry:

    I finally came to terms with parting with her after owning her for the last 12 years, and put up one solitary ad on my specialist forums when the new girl arrived. I haven't advertised her anywhere else as we still love her to bits, our favourite car hands down. My work and family life nowadays...
