I just used to take it easy for few miles then drive normally.
Then when I fitted my AP's I was advised by them to follow there procedure (just building up stops gradually) Because it acts as an on Car heat treatment. Worked a treat until I forgot one night but think I got away with it... Admittedly that is for two piece discs so for a oner you'll be fine

Meh I'm not a wheel man I'm an engines man.
If PS3 are anything like PS2, then worth a go. I have ps2's on the front of the audi and they're mega!
I've had avons but generally the tyre sidewall seemed by soft to me always
Toyo were just plane crap in the rain!

Had a typo in my post, the bolts aren't designed to take the the loading they are just a clamp

Does anyone know how essential hubcentric spacers are over normal ones?
I fitted a set of hubcentric spacers to the front of my car, ended up grinding the lip off the driveflange to get it to fit.
The lip on the rear is even bigger than the front aswell
Massively, the bolts are simply to calm not take the torque of braking. It won't be pretty when a bolt sheers off...

Ds2500's are not soft...
Use Dragons Breath by ValetPro.
Insane stuff, spray it on, wipe it with a cloth, wash it off. Perfect wheels.
When I said soft I meant makes a hell of alpt of dust!
It's the wiping I don't want to bother with, multi spoke fail. Anyone got experience of wheel cleaning brushes?

Wheel cleaning... Talk to me goose.
Car currently has THE softest pads on in the world. I am pretty sure they are DS2500... The result is after a couple of days of light use the wheels need a clean! Changing to AP discs and Pagid RS4-2 pads shortly but what's peoples generally recommendations for wheel cleaning?
I currently basically have to take the wheels off and use wonder wheels to looses the grime and a sponge and water to wipe it all off. FAFF

182 looks good Dan. I hope Jake gets on well with the Ibiza too
I've made a tarty style annotated video of near fails from my trackday on Monday, for those who can't be arsed to watch 15 minutes of the same thing
I am watching this without sound, and that looks fast

Nick the sound of your voice made me panic listening to that! Glad your ok, this will only make you a more rounded individual

"Apparently" anit-stall kicked in which gives 50% throttle in 1st gear. Shows in-experience but still tragic. All the best for her for sure.

True but unlikely to be 50% throttle as that is good for some limiter action

Or maybe they should drive better.
I understand a fair amount of it is down to the cars, but without that sort of domination motorsport wouldn't evolve at the rate it does.
A fair amount? 95% of it is the car, put Vettel in Ferrari and he'd be 4th. Put Alonso in the RB7 and he'd be first.

Looking forward to this, bit gutted I have to duck out at about 5.30 though!

Making it worth your while
Just for me? Im honoured haha

That kicker looks wicked, wish i could have gone just for that!!!
