Autumn Issue of REDLINE Magazine is a Nürburgring  Special.
Feature article on MA55 VXR.
Guess we have to wait another month before the November issue featuring Aussie`s car hits local newstands.

I too picked up this copy of Redline too on Saturday. Interesting read about Mandy car in there.

Indeed !
Really like those BBS wheels 

+1 they look good on the Arden Blue. Being BBS Motorsport rims i would say they are $$$$$$

[kabel]

Indeed again !
Interesting comments about the approach to modifications if they had their time over again.
Start with chassis and LSD prior to adding any power.

[HSV-VXR]

Yeah i found that interesting too. Have you fitted your LSD ?
As for the free lap of the ring i would LOVE to go do that. Maybe We could convince Stu Harris @ Vauxhall to lend us a VXR8 and take it down to give it a run lol..

LSD is fitted,just crave a bit more power now !
Undecided about which remap to use.

Hey Kabel, re tune and power (just re-wrote this from last night)
I would probably go the EDS map based on my short time with Rory and his car..felt really good to drive, produced a good power curve on the dyno...but Rory would be able to tell you what its like to live with.

Just an afterthought - If your considering TMS - I will be there in december with my car, so if you not doing it right now might be worth waiting so you can have a drive of mine...Even though they all drive different, it might help decide if you actually want to add the power or not.

Yeah, i'm really happy with my map, although seems to be a little possible boost issue at the moment, but that just could be because I haven't adjusted the actuator to hold the correct boost.

I thought Tims map was pretty good too, once that little glitch is worked out I think the TMS map would be fine. Well worth going for a spin with him when he's over there.
