• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    RT Cruise Control Problem.

    Thanks for the answers.. I had a look at all your cleaning suggestions and all was well... I was cruising on the motorway here in England at 75 UK mph and it set twice out of around 10 attempts so I reckon it could be a switch problem.. Its no big deal but if something is on my spyder I like it...
