Can I bring my own bike?


Don't think it would be fare on the drivers though as steves passenger this year, I know I would feel bad having him peddle me round

You reckon we'd get the bike in the scoob with all of the other gear that'll be in it?

There's got to be space for the return journey for beer supplies too

Could well be up for that... Would love to take my bike but not sure the rack on the back would help the fuel economy on a 600 mile round trip!!

Golf too small for extra set of wheels, what with a boot that has shrunk because of 4wd, a rear brace and chunky seats that take up most of the interior.

Feels slow after the Scoob as well now, even with 290bhp. Guess my cams will have to be changed soon, possibly evena turbo conversion.

They're completely fine in damp conditions unless there's a lot of standing water. Then they're not..

Bah, GP version not available for Android yet. Might get the middle version as I want the video overlays

I assume its accurate on the overlays? Looking at here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ys.laptimerpro



The vid screenshot says Schwedenkreuz when the car is at Breidscheid - only about 4 miles out!

my BT data is a little slow but GPS is relatively accurate.. you can plug an external GPS device in via Blutooth/Wifi etc. I think that has 1HZ refresh rate.

Examples on my Youtube channel.. for acuracy of corners etc, (look at SPA) you can of course scew the overlay manually as well.

It will still do some nice overlays, just missing a bit of engine data, the ram mount is ace!.. I might try an external mic this time..
