Driving experience tomorrow

by mr2tubbyben, 21-10-2019, 08:00 AM

Mum gave me a voucher for my birthday in October, i chose the aston/atom experience.
3 laps driving the aston
3 laps passenger in the ariel atom

looking forward to it has anyone else been in the atom? i've always wanted to get into one of these beasts, and would rather be the passenger with a good driver behind the wheel, as 3 laps wouldnt be enough to have the balls to push it!

must see....stupid americans.......and a few others

Carbon skinning anyone?

by el_bandido, 18-10-2019, 04:56 PM

I've just bought myself a starter kit for carbon skinning, has anyone got any experience of this? If it turns out well, I'll have a go at making some carbon fibre parts so watch this space!

If anyone's done this before, give me a shout!

More internet issues

by parthiban, 15-10-2019, 06:31 PM

Just when it seemed I finally sorted out all my internet issues a while back with a new router after the great advice on here, my modem has started playing up - it's about 10 years old so not a huge surprise. Called up VM who agreed to send me a new one, which arrived a few days ago. The problem is it's one of their new "hubs" which is a combined modem and wireless router. Haven't plugged it in yet as I'm not sure whether I can use this, reading about it on the net (Netgear VMDG280) the general consensus is that it's not very good.

What I've been trying to work out is if I can use this as just a modem and still continue to use my cisco router? Apparently VM were supposed to be altering the firmware to allow use as just a modem but this hasn't arrived yet, and then I read all sorts of stuff about double NATs and DMZs that I have no clue about :tongue_smilie:

Does anyone know about these and whether I will be able to use my existing router? If it's not possible I might have to try and hassle VM into sending me a standalone modem but I've been reading that they don't send these out any more so that may not be an option.
