During training I used to deliberately steer clear of 'biker' roads - usually full of other bikers, many RLAT, often a high police presence too. Plenty of other great roads. For similar reasons I avoid the Evo triangle. I also don't like sharing the location of /my/ roads on other forums, lest they...

Dont particularly like the C&F too may vehicles exceeding the competence of the user. Many think its a badge of honor to have traveled along it. There are some bits that can catch out anyone not actually paying attention, especially if they are already exceeding their ability to read the road a...

Are the roads really the problem, or the road users?

I loathe the prospect of ISA - but if it operated only in red ring limits, and allowed me to set a percentage leeway then instead of loathing it I might actually welcome it Why on earth would it only operate in red rings and allow some leeway? It's the limit, not a guide :nono: :roll: Unless the sc...

Yes, as GTR says, it's dumbing down. Sadly, the 'intelligent' approach you would prefer isn't going to happen, is it? No, it isn't. Doesn't mean I'm wrong :P My approach would also lead to massively reduced congestion (as I'd remove all the drivers from the roads who don't want to pay attention to ...

Although . . . if I were to suggest that drink drivers, drivers using the phone, drugged drivers, etc. were all to be forced to drive slower, wouldn't that be a benefit? ;) As a matter of interest, which speed limits do you want to be allowed to exceed? "The device can be disabled at the touch...

MX5? In which case StressedDave is probably the person to ask. My other thought is that most of my comments apply to RWD cars. I've had two moderately powerful FWD cars (Clio 197, M100 Elan), neither of which had an LSD and neither of which had problems with torque steer. But the Lotus had a very cl...

I've an MX5 (1.6 110bhp) with no LSD and I recently drove another with LSD. I think my, less powerful but unadulterated car, is much sharper and more pure. The lack of such things as ABS/ESC etc keep you a bit more sharp as well, because you feel more vulnerable. I'm not sure that's got much to do ...

Really?

Looks like a 70mph dual carriageway to me.

Edit ... and the sign agrees.

Gah. Good point. Long day
