Re: NC500 Bad Press
Looks more like Glenshee than NC500.

Re: NC500 Bad Press
Yep, I'd say the same. Is the Exige soft, or is it just the splitter that's really low (or indeed, down to the speed...)
If that's where I think it is, my little S1 doesn't bottom out there, even with some daylight showing...

Re: NC500 Bad Press
Coming back home from The Twentys Plenty run - I drove through Pitlochry to fuel up.
i was cruising at 20mph & this woman ran onto the road and started waving her hand up & down at me.
i felt like stopping the car & saying i was doing 20mph (Albeit i was in 2nd gear & the exhaust was burbling away
)
I think they must all be getting pissed off with the noise of the cars too - never mind the speed.
Also happened on Saturday when we fuelled up - an old man who live across from the petrol station was waving his arms in the arm as some of the cars left the petrol station ....... obviously doesn't appreciate a 2bular exhaust

Two negatives make a positive but only in Scotland do two positives make a negative - 'Aye right.'

Bloody cyclist was waving the slow-down signal at me & Duggie as we left Kincraig on old A9 on the Sunday.
I was exasperated at the default attitude.
Then I saw the cop car and breakdown he’d just passed, which we were now approaching
Nice fella ...

Re: NC500 Bad Press
My initial thoughts were the same too.
Just goes to show, you should never jump to conclusions

Re: NC500 Bad Press
That'll be the same cops that followed me all the way from Aviemore! They stopped for a sheep on the road before Kingussie. I was going to help but then realised it was my chance to not have them sitting right behind be down the road!
