That's pretty impressive, but think that is an 1/8mile track not a full quarter - if it was a 6sec quarter mile time then the speed would be much higher than 110mph... :smile:
Always wanted a Caterham or similar myself - should've brought one back from the UK with me...
You guys would love it down here in Australia, especially in Victoria.
At least those vans are white with reflective markings and pics of cameras on them. Here they are unmarked camera cars - as in regular SUV or estate. About the only visual clue you get is that they are usually parked on...
Apologies for the thread hijack but thought I might post this here as sounds very similar.
I had a flashing EML today for about 5secs or so and then went off by itself, but when I checked for a fault code with RSTuner there were no codes listed. I did the self diagnostic trick and it showed a...
Never had a problem with standard wheel bolts coming loose on trackdays, always torqued to 105Nm as well.
I find these things make changing/mounting wheels a bit easier though...
Fit Bilstein B14s and either set them to a height that doesn't compromise the rollcentres or set them lower and fit a rollcentre correction kit. A set of decent tyres and you're done.
Actually, just found this website where you can get a set of 4 caps for about 6 quid each:

Unfortunately postage to Oz is about the same cost again... :(
I recently picked up a set of TD 1.2s with semis on them but most of the caps are busted. Keen to also know if you can get replacement caps at a reasonable price, from Team Dynamics or elsewhere...
I think anything below 400CCA is a bit low, iirc they came with batteries rated at around 500CCA from factory- or at least they did here in Australia.
450CCA would definitely be better than 380CCA though!
Perhaps before you buy another battery though, give the TDC sensor a bit of a clean and...
Usually the trip resetting is a sign that the battery is on it's way out, these cars seem pretty sensitive to a battery that is starting to go.
Am I reading that right, the battery rating is 380CCA? If so that seems a bit low to me...
Might sound silly but worth giving the throttle pedal connector a good clean and plug/unplug it a few times as well to ensure clean contact. I had symptoms similar to yours and doing this has solved them.
If it doesn't work it hasn't cost you anything and it is one thing you can rule out before...
Check that the bearing circlip hasn't popped and allowed the rotor to move. I had this happen to me when I had a bearing replaced and the circlip wasn't set in the groove properly, car drove fine with no issues for weeks until the circlip finally popped.
TBH if they were genuine rotors I would...
