My W203 has only done 84,000 miles yet all of the above have gone. First on the offside and looks like now on the drivers. Is this normal or another example of Mercedes poor build quality?

These ingenious Yanks have come up with a new motorsport television first called Draft Track. Claims to allow visualization of a cars slipstream. http://www.espnmediazone.com/press_releases/2007_07_jul/20070724_DraftTrackTechnology.htm Wonder if it will make it to Formula 1? Could be...

Hi Gang, Have you ever had any GTG's at a track or airfield. I did this with the Lotus forum and it was a great day out. We had a few driving instructors and a course set out - No real racing with each other more time trials and car control lessons. Does anyone know how to get one of these...

Vauxhall's running track days at well known tracks around the UK (not airfields), for a very reasonable £95 - to say you've driven on Brands Hatch must be worth that at least!! Some of you may know I'm a big Vauxhall fan, and the forthcoming VXR8 (replacing the Monaro) is a tempting...

Got a nice suprise today. The AMG track day on the 14thApril, (was going to go but thought it was a bit pricy.) I have been invited to attend for free this afternoon so am pleased, it was going to cost £400. Just a thought though, has anybody else been contacted and offered the day for...

Hi, Has anyone modified a 350z for track use (while still being able to use on the road). I was thinking about things like uprated brakes, suspension etc. Also, does anyone know of a company that specialises in modifying these cars? Many thanks DB1

Pics provided coutesy of www.midlandperformancegroup.com Some good cars there and a mental go kart with a Honda CBR1000 Engine strapped to it :D The track was better suited to smaller cars with only one main straight and lots of tight turns. I held my own again the Subaru Imprezas so was...

Hi, I am considering investing in a (relatively) inexpensive car mostly for track day use. It won't be used much on the road, but will be required to drive to and from the track, so a track-only car isn't on the list. Also, I wanted a car that wasn't too highly powered so as to allow me to...

This is a preliminary post to see how many people on the forum would be interested in doing a track day I'm not sure how many track day regulars and track day virgins use this forum, but what I had in mind was a day oriented towards Mercedes drivers and towards track day virgins and...

I'm very tempted to buy what seems like a very nice W210 Elegance Estate, registered June 2002. Its a one owner car, FMBSH, 7 seats, cloth interior, 6CD, etc, done about 50K miles and has the 2.6 V6 petrol engine (I'm still confused as to why its called a 240 and yet has the 2.6 engine)...

I'm lucky enough to be going to Silverstone this Saturday for a Lotus Elise track experience thingy, was wondering if you use the full grand prix circuit or the club circuit? Anyone done a similar thing at Silverstone?

Hello, I've spent a fair bit of time and effort sorting out a mk1 16V that i was going to use for trackdays, hillclimbs, sprints and as a fun on the road car. However i'm now having second thoughts and am thinking about selling it, basically i'm now trying to work out how big the market is for...
