bout time you showed your ride off properly ;)

i can personally say to anyone wanting a Leon, THIS CAR is the 1 to want!!

maybe a little bit of jealousy showing through, but hey, this is one hell of a car!!

i've seen it many times, and a few on track.
One track experience spring's to mind, where Tris was moaning that the LCR's were "so much quicker"!!!

Bearing in mind, i watched all that was going on, yes, the LCR's may have pulled away in a straight line, but the consistency and deliverance from tris was outstanding against cupra R's.

in an endurance session, i would not hesitate to put money on this car beating other stuff with a lot more power!!


Hats off to Tris, this is a fine example and if i ever buy a Leon, THIS IS THE ONE I WANT!!!!!!!!!

imho,

this is a car that hasn't suffered from "money-no-object-thrown-at-it"
but a more of a careful plan and built up experiences on track of "what-needs-to-be-done-to-improve-handling/speed"

all takes time, and some things will be on a trial and error basis, even the big teams get set-ups wrong sometimes, but hay, if they didn't get it wrong, we would and then it becomes expensive :lol:
much cheaper to learn by other's mistakes and spend that beloved cash on something proven to improve :)

If I had not have got the trackday bug it would have stopped at a re map (well maybe)
Once the Forge FMIC gets here and gets fitted the TIP can go on then back to Jabba for the map to be sorted as that will be the engine mods finished as i am not interested in big turbo
