The 01E isn't a fantastic box but probably the only one up to the job. It feels like trying to stir a box of watermelons with a crowbar.
Is that a diesel box?
If anyone is after a diesel box, one of our MK regulars has a 2001 C5 A6 2.5 TDI quattro 6 speed manual parked on the drive, owned for many years. I vaguely recall the car needs a full set of front suspension arms, mot expired a while ago now, car runs and drives, its looking tatty hence I think hes going to move the car on rather than do the work. Location near Buckingham.

Bam don't worry, if a gantry camera went off, it would by as bright as lightning. And even if if went off, as I know, it doen't mean to say you'll get done. Fcuk em you had a good laugh.

Nope, I came off the M6 to M42 juction up the hill at 6:30am doing 120 in the summer on my way to work in Derby and there's a gantry camera half way up. It was daylight and it went off like boom! No ticket nothing.

Probably the sad sap in the Clio next to you got it.

Yep I agree. I’ve seen those things going off during the afternoon. They light everything up even in daylight, if a cam did go off you’d definitely know it did. They are blinding from the opposite carriageway.

I wasn't really focused on anything else, I cannot remember a speedcam flash. It will still be in the back of mind for the next couple of weeks.

But that comes under the Midlands area, where most of the cameras were turned off some time ago !
It's NOT the gantry cameras over your head you need to watch on the M42, its the ones at the SIDE of the gantry, on the gantry upright/support leg

Now a while back I had a BMW M2 in front of me. It was an early one so 360bhp from memory. So about 170bhp less than me but a whole hell of a lot lighter than the old barge! I assume he saw me behind him and I heard him drop a gear mid-roundabout so I did the same and we both planted it on the exit of the roundabout. I had to lift off before running into the back of him. I was so shocked how slow it was. He eventually moved over once past the old dear in the inside lane and I planted it again and sailed past and off into the distance. I really thought it would at least be close to if not as quick as the RS6 but seemingly not! Although I have no doubt it would be much quicker in the twisties....

Your avater has me pissing myself everytime i see it :lol: :lol:

What kinda power are you running then Bam? Do you still have the other RS6?

I had my first supercar play last week, McLaren 720S i think it was, just an easy play with a bit of gunning it, traffic was ropey, but he wasnt pulling away that fast from me, gave a flash of the oranges so he was respecting the hearse anyway :rocker:
