As I wrote my reply I thought: Actually it probably was the scuttle tray which I hadn't checked... I'd just noticed the seal between the door and the rear window had split all the way down. It's also just happened on my current 197, those seals don't last long.

I had the same problem in my old 197. Seals on my windows had gone, so I think water may have been coming in from there. But same result, water under passenger seat caused hazards to turn on by themselves.

Does look a bit slow in the straights to be fair. Would help to see on-board footage. Did you get any lap times?

lol yeah dropped you a few laps back didnt I ;)

lovely car Big Boy, very fast yes.

haha I'm pretty sure nothing fell off... By all accounts they're exactly the same. I find them a little soft for the track, but if you're using it on the road it's probably a good balance. I went out in @R27WTF's car which is on AST's and solid as a rock, made mine feel like a boat :(

Thanks man, hopefully see you at Anglesey in August :thumb:

Bit of footage from Donington Park on Monday Eve. There were a few 197's there, nice liquid yellow one, racing blue and a couple of caged ones which looks pretty serious. Great track, perfect for the clio, by far my favourite track.

Ha! Noise cancelling headphones, cuts out the drone of the exhaust. Only use on long motorway journeys.. Next question?

I think mine's great for the road, i see it essentially as a sport button, the increase in throttle response makes the car feel alert and faster. For the road it's an absolute no-brainer. On track however i'm 50/50. At Snetterton the other week I found it's very difficult to feather the...

Had a few twitches at Blanchimont 2 because I had to lift. Glad i brought spare pants. Christ, I was 115 through blanchimont but entry to pouhon was max 60, just no grip through there for me

Blanchimont flat in 5th and hold onto your nuts! (Don't suppose you were recording when i was infront were you?) I'm so excited for a dry track day.. I reckon you're gonna see a good improvement with your springs. Tyres will probably hold you back though, 20 minute stints then cool down...
