MOT Time, now I know I hadn't used the car apart from going to work a couple of times and filling it up with fuel so wasn't sure how it was going to go, I didn't even have chance to check the wipers and lights which I would usually do. So sent the old man off in the car, 2 hours later get a...

I looked into this a while ago and spoke with Kam Racing who produce the Grams springs and...
I'd go with rear discs with the bearings already in place, so much easier than trying to press a bearing in etc. Fronts and rears I would go with Brembo which are a decent brand and good value, if you go too cheap on the rear the bearings will be rubbish. Just remember to put the spacer/washer...

Took my Cup to do an event at Silverstone (VSCC Pomeroy Trophy) basically a few auto tests in the morning then a 40 minute high speed trial in the afternoon, all going well until I thought I would just double check the tightness of the wheel bolts got to the last wheel....then snap! Bolt broke...
