Not much of an update but it now looks like funds will allow for throttle bodies, ECU and some engine work over winter.

Good luck Pete

Well Nick, If you have gone that far then you might as well enter in class A

Have a look at Class A then mate, anything goes really,, have a look through my project thread, or Tony hunters, FFracing and Pete's (this one) and you will get some kind of idea. I run a Clio with a standard engine, no cams, bodies or high compression, I do have a diff, coilovers...

Have a look here,, http://www.trackattackraceclub.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=67 Production class is starting next year with a few guys on here building cars for.

If you run the test day before you could easily add £400 to the above!

I'll try but it scares the bejesus out of me everytime I think about it! Trailer hire £70 Fuel (tow car) £100 Fuel (race car) £60 Entrance £300 Tyres (pro rata) £100 food £30 fags £20 And thats a cheap one forgetting replacing oil/fluids each meeting and any damage incurred.

Dibs on the 5th gear James please mate

I'll come and spanner for you Tony,, Car wont have suspension by then.

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" Driver--- Sonny Pit crew-- Lawrence Tyre crew-- Alan (titmarsh) Lol

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" Purple would look good I reckon Sonny,,, you need some brightness! another pastel colour and you will be inviting Lawrence Lewelling Bowen to the races, lol

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" The RAC? lol

Sounds like a hell of alot of wieght can come off, Start your onw project thread so we can keep track of it mate.

You'll need a few more horses and bigger balls to keep up with Tony!,, He's been pedalling cars for some time now, I think the main problem you have in the french trophy is that your car is heavy, About 1200 KG wasnt it? If you could get it done a bit then if thats the wieght you need to...

How many autographs do you need now Pete? The good thing with TARC is two signitures a meeting if you finish both, I only need two now.

If I wasnt working Pete I'd come and watch, Looks an interesting, if not wierd line up! Closed wheel being used very loosely there, lol

What he said, If the 197 has standard mcpherson struts (not coilovers) and polybushed (not bearings) and a standard engine then it will fit into the new regs, Oh and a normal diff, If not, then sell the MX5 and invest some money into the 197, As Kev showed at Oulton Park, a 197 with mild...

If I don't hurry up and get one of these engines I may drop into the production class by default, lol Seriously though, if funds allow then a forged f4r on bodies will be done over winter, Suspension upgrade first. Can't wait to see what yours goes like though Pete.

Ok, can you all please stop building forged high comp engines please. Lol

I'm keeping out of this!

FLOL, Did anyone else see the comment over on the other forum? I'm glad you wasnt there too Ian,,,,, but we still love you:rasp:

Yes mate, I'd flat spotted the left front, the other three tyres look ok but wont know till I run it round the block (private road)

Ok, I need more power and better wet tyres, Great drive James from the back.

Thanks Gents, I wasnt joking when I said I had never driven Donington Park, Here is proof! thats a copy of the "Donington Park Circuit Guide" I'm reading, lol

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" Dont be shy Tony!

Race 2, Finished race 1 in 7th so started on the grid from there,, Moved over to the left this time and see if taking the long way round would work,, It did to the fact that I didnt do any showboating round redgate and held my position, coming through Craners I see James spin off infront of me...

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" I loved the bit at 6.30 where the Black/orange Swift went grass cutting, lol, Anyone heard anything else obout the two looneys in the Swifts? More and more videos are appearing of them,

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" That was a good result Sonny. Isnt it amazing just when you think you can pedal a car fast then get swallowed up by everyone, there is no shame in that and was how I felt when I started Karting, I'd done loads of testing, getting the Kart set up and...

So is it the fact that there are many more models of Peugeot/Citroen that are getting modified, Ie, 106,206,205,306,Saxo,C1,C2 and so on that the market is flooded with second hand stuff? Or are Clio owners just stupid and will pay anything to gain 5hp cause he read it somewhere on the...

Phil, I'm not here for an arguement, Nor am I here to be mis quoted! I understand that its cheaper to build a competative Pug than a Clio, I disagreed that you could get throttle bodies for a peugeot cheaper than a Renault, (new) also a roll cage from the same supplier is not cheaper from model...
