Cheap ish matt black shark one.

Highlight from Blyton today was my save while under instruction. Even got some applause from the instructor! Got some good angles going!

I've enjoyed tarting it up. When it was semi finished I was a bit sad, as I was nearly out of stuff to do. I'm hoping some track days will make me bond with it more. It's started leaking gearbox oil out of the speedo sender now, there's always something to do on these! One the carbon bits...

Whiney straight cut gearbox and rattly cage! The exhaust is only louder than the box at 5k RPM.

It looks good but is utterly ruined by that front bumper.

What will you be in? I've never done Blyton and I don't trust the car yet, so I'll be very slow! Got the camera rigged up though! Dab of oppo.

It'll stay red, as I like it now.

Yeah but then you have to wear a helmet all the time which makes you look a helmet. Also 60mph gravel and bee's really f**king hurt. I still have a dint in my head from owning this one...

Nearly just wrote this off. Turns out the brakes are VERY grabby in an emergency!

It's all together, working and ready for Blyton on Sunday. Had to re do the idle control system and rebuild the front brakes too. I won't lie, i love it in a gay way....

Tru Dat

Naughty. Seats and wheels on. Still waiting on my carbon to come.

Some wheels actually turned up! 13's are bloody light!

This is true. Which is annoying. As I'm supposed to be sensible with money now.... I have a tracking number for my wheels. Jesus H!

I know. Dammit. They don't work well with the VVC though. So I'd have to go solid cams too. So after £2500 I'd have a 205bhp 7500rpm peach of an engine. I'd never see that money back though....

True that. £1000 for 20bhp is a bit rich though.

The wheel saga continues. Ordered Compomotive CXR's = None in stock in the set up I want 8 week wait Ordered Grey Pro Race 1.2's = None in stock in the set up I want 11 week wait Ordered Black Pro Race 1.2's = Apparently in stock and should be here tomorrow..... Not holding my breath. My...

I'm 5'10 and I have the seat 40mm forward and the pedal box on its nearest setting. I'm pretty sure a 6ft person would be fine. After 6ft I think you'd be looking over the screen! Also being a narrow body you only have 39cm of internal width, which I just fit into!

I can't really hear it over the straight cut box whining away.... I really wish 5th wasn't straight cut. Whinnnnnnnneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

No, with the new silencer on it'll be below 90dB. A loud exhaust on one of these is hell.

Awww yeah. Can't wait for my seats and carbon bits to arrive now.

#shonkymap I bet the injector has a point where it doesn't pulse. The kind of thing you wouldn't find with a flow test.

Windscreen painted

'96 This one already had extra cross members in and side bars. It's the front mounting points causing the flex. Really they should mount 100mm further forward then they'd pick up my extra cross member. I will have a look at putting a hoop over where my knees are and linking the two front mounts.

Fully fitted now. Just need to paint my windscreen surround and fit that. Loving its look now.

Carbon NV. Give them a google. Weirdly the guy I bought the cage off owns Aerodynamix who also make carbon bits. Bolting the cage in is fun. The chassis bends before the cage does. Will deffo need geo after this.

Oi I am tall.* *compared to a child/midget

f**king hell CS. I've already said I'm changing it! I can't help what it arrived with. I've got Carbon side door being made along with some carbon cycle wings.

I call them a mouse trap

It is old cage foam. It's done 7 years of sprint comps in Scotland. Its all coming off when I paint the cage.
