Hi Dan,
Don’t worry your not confused haha, The car you’ve seen is actually the same car. We’ve given the livery a subtle tweak and have two new drivers in the car for this season. Chris Dunster and Jack Kemp..
We decided to take a year out of racing as my wife had a baby at Christmas and I...
BRANDS INDY
Got a cracking start and gained 5 places and up into P1 in class and P4 overall by turn 1!.. then it was a game of defense.. after quite a few bumps a very quick mk4 clio and bmw slipped past and we settled for P3 in class. beating the eventual championship winners, but they just had...
Ill fast forward to the 2021 season as we had a marked improvement. We were leading our class after the first 3 rounds, where we took our first win at Donington, and 2 back to back P2s however Oulton Park and Snetterton would prove to be challenging in monsoon conditions and Team KAR dominated...
As part of our general development we’ve been continually looking at things we can improve on the kits.. we’ve taken everything we learnt from the first two iterations and have revised the concept to a 2 piece design, integrating a locking nut with the spacer.. This allows the spacer to be...
2020 Race Season Round up!... better late than never
We entered the pre season testing feeling confident after the all upgrades we had worked on and the changes we had made. Donington was a really productive day, shaving over 0.8s off our previous best time there. And the car was looking...
Nearly 5 months since my last post and another 'season' of racing has been and gone.. It was a very strange year to say the least.. We we're extremely grateful we were able to hit the track at all, let alone get in 5 Races and 2 Test Days!.. Hopefully over the next week or so I can review the...
Im not sure yet.. still working through the caliper side of the kit as what I made for ours isnt really cost effective to batch produce... not likely this side of christmas though
@1985michael182 They are rated for high temp, can't remember exactly what temp. Ours have faded a bit on the outside pad contact face area as yours and Robs pictures show. Not as bad as that though (we do have some new cooling ducts which ill do an update on soon).. Cooling to that side of the...
Following on from the wing update, just a little one on our rain light re location.
Changing the rear spoiler and fitting the rear wing meant we had to change our rain light position. We had been using the spoiler top central brake light as the rain light (wired onto a separate circuit with a...
To be honest I was going off the emails being sent from the race organisers not the circuit themselves.. might be that what I was reading relates to the paddock area not the circuit itself.. I saw they are offering tickets for sale so yeah that’s great news!
I'm not sure to be honest.. There are no spectators allowed at Oulton next weekend (only 6 team members allowed too), but who knows for the week after, everything is changing so fast at the minute!
Hahaha I dont think we could come up with anything to stop that unfortunately... maybe the fact the car is quicker will mean we can just gap the field and stay out of trouble :p ... MSV have helped this year tho, by cancelling the Donington round so we shouldn't have any issues with Redgate :LOL:
Thanks mate.. we just need to go out and prove it now by winning some races!.. Will be tough, a few more full on MK3 Clio Cup cars have entered our class this year, but challenge accepted !!!
Yeah we will be racing in the Trackday Trophy Race on the GP layout
Well its certainly been a busy few months!.. finding the time to update this has been none existent really!..
After our last race of the 2019 season we sat down and discussed our plan for 2020.. We decided we would stick with class C again in the MSV Trackday Championship, we now know how it...
That would make sense then as they are setup as std to not lock the rears that easily.. so yeah upgraded rear pads would be a benefit to shift some bias to the back while still not locking up. [emoji1360]
Haha yeah, needs to keep its value still
While we build our second car we are looking to turn everything we do into a kit to sell to others. I can certainly add brake lines to the list to look at.. so many different options tho.. (just the braided corners, internal hardlines, internal bias kit, ABS, non ABS, cup master cylinder, std...
Haha yeah i re-read your comment but by that time i couldn't edit mine...we'll have to disagree on that one then lol.. Its way to easy to lock the rears on ours.. If we could get a better weight distribution with more weight at the back then id look at upgrading the rears... There's just not...
Great track isn’t it, can’t wait to go back!.. I say ‘testing’ it will actually be during practice/qualifying of our first race this year.. round 2 of the MSV Trackday championship, 8th August
Maybe! “Cough cough”[emoji6] .. it is the best way to keep any issues at bay tho.. 3D printed the ducts now.. just fitting the ducting caliper side, then testing at Oulton in a few weeks
