Tyre size question for Falkens.
I have Falkens on the back of mine, I went up to 275/40/17. They look much more in proportion from the side view too. Have a look at a site called "the tyre bible" it will explain everything about tyres.

Bulb mod
Ellow you lot, My headlight bulb blew so I ordered some uprated H3B's, they have 2 connectors on the bottom that fit to a block connector. I reciever H3's, these have 1 wire coming from it, but the base will fit the light unit. Can I just earth the bulb to the body, or make up a wire back to the connentor block to make it work? Cheers peeps

90 miles to half a tank. 35 quid
I get about 60-70 miles to half a tank from full around town. On a run down the M4 I'm getting 140ish to the same half tank from full. I'm sure I was getting more before I had it serviced.

Track Days - Pre Checks
Make sure you do not run out of fuel on track, that's a heavy fine. Make sure the tow eyes are indicated and accessable. Change the brake/clutch fluid to DOT5 or better. Anything in the car that aint bolted in, take it out. Check all other fluid levels every time you go back to the pits. Take a small pump for a few extra psi in the tyres. And the most important of all, put your hat on and have some fun.

Time for a service

Wife is so unhappy WTF can I do?
Don't let her deal with it on her own, sound like she needs your support big time. As soon as she can see that you are there for her, things will start to get better. All the best.
