thanks
You have got a nice car there and quick to boot. We were "even stevens" all day at castle combe. I'll dig out some video footage for you.

Judging by the clarity - especially the roof - I assume you machine polish your car?
If so, how do you navigate round the roof rails???
I've just invested in a G220 and practiced on the other halfs old corsa so I'm raring to go on mine but unsure how to get around certain bits :?

Actually it was all by handm using plush microfibre towels. I looked like Popeye afterwards, and must have sweated at least a pint full!

Will see what I've got tonight.
Alternatively, you'll see it on Saturday, tearing up the tarmac... And hopefully not ending up in the verge somewhere!

10mm currently, but also have a set of 15's which I might put on at some point.

Desperate to get the new wheels, but finances and Xmas looming probably means they'll have to wait until next year. So, will console myself with refurbing and painting the OEM ones instead, along with either some Ultrac Sessantas or some R888's...

Not really, just interested to see how it handles with the spacers.

Phew... Thought you were gonna say something like, the additional stresses involved will induce some fatal cracking somewhere, or something equally as daft!

I tracked it at Lydden a few weeks ago with the spacers, and felt fine..?
