Thanks Jim.
Never had a post deleted before, but if you took mine off, then you need to take off Simon's comments about Richard's car being "vile", full of "tasteless crap", and "fairylights"

Humblest apologies if I'm mistaken, but I did post and it has gone.
Sorry.

Roughly 2 pages of posts have gone, as I alluded to in my last post. I'm not usually a fan of such things but in this instance there was a lot of very off-topic discussion in a sticky thread for posting car pics so I'd say it was fair enough for that reason only.

Probably worth a further clean-up in fact.

I commend you for having the guts to do what YOU want to YOUR own car. I actually think it looks pretty aggressive and should make a good trackday weapon.

To the poster who said the car is vile:

I'm afraid there is no place for that sort of insult on here. This is not pistonheads, and until very recently has been a really easy going forum with no protracted arguments about turbos etc. Please respect others as you would want to be respected yourself.

Looks very nice indeed Paul

Didn't I read once that your car was a 911&PW feature?

Cracking pictures, and not just of the car.
How did you take them? Particularly the action shots.

Yes, they are some of the pics from a huge CD that the magazine photographer gave me. I like to drip feed them bit by bit to forums when I feel starved of the 'look at me' attention :lol: :lol: :lol:

The pro snapper took them and it was really quite interesting to watch. The two moving pics from the front were taken by me driving at about 30mph while the camera car was on the wong side of the road with the photographer hanging out the back passenger window pointing back at me.

The corner shot was one of about 20 where I just kept driving back and forth round that corner until he reckoned he had a good one.

The moving shot from the rear was really quite impressive. The car is actually rolling backwards at less than walking pace. The camera is attached to the left side of my rear number plate with a huge suction mount tripod that holds the camera about 6 foot behind the car and about a foot off the ground. A fairly long exposure makes it look like the car is going 100 miles an hour forwards! Very clever stuff
