In my experience, to judge the revs, they can go as much by ear as tacho. They've heard many cars before obviously.

Big moment for the Clio, ironically the guy in the Clio supplied the ceramic brakes for the Yeti.. Nicely put together Chris, the Scooby made quite the impression, flames went down well. :D

Bit of man maths.. Cheeky bid on a set of TD 1.2’s clothed in a good set of NS2R’s.. save the cost of refurbing current alloys which will make good winter wheels, along with half the tyre wear. Everyone’s a winner :lol: :lol:
