Well Sunday finally saw my first track day! What a great day, really enjoyed it. Was the first time id ever pushed a car that much, very impressed with how well the car went, and best of all no issues :smiley: Enjoyed the track also, was a bit greasy in the morning but once dry i gained a lot...

Lovely!

Loctite 243 will be fine.

Oh my god that F40! Winning at life when you can take that to a track!

Yeah I've still full dash. I can see what you mean if your only running the top as it looks better with all the heater controls gone.

I agree, thought of removing mine a while ago but it's not worth the hassle. For all the weight it is, makes life easier for de misting the window etc.

Storing a car for 10 years to possibly make £4K is crazy. Just use it and enjoy, end of the day it's a Clio.

Who owns this? I'd definately be interested as a side project!

Glad i booked now, was going to chance it on the day as well thinking it wouldn't be full. Looking forward to it though, just some pms mounts to fit and a few niggles to sort before hand this weekend :smile: Just missed a brian james trailer on gumtree today too gutted!

What caused the fire @MarkX ?

Good to see it repaired bud. Ive got Sunday booked up, looking forward to it!

Absolute loved 3, cracking story! I agree 4 was to much the same, still a good game but got a bit boring at times.

Depends what the spec is really.

Im so glad my cup had none of that s*t.

Cheers mate, you'll end up spending a small fortune before you know it! Haha cheers mate! I was sent up last week around Banff and then Turriff for a few days. Work on wind turbines, there's plenty of them up there anyway!

You've not posted since August, well worth a come back thread 😂

Yeah very easy! With the door cards off you just remove the mechanism for the old window couple of bolts, hardest bit was getting the plastic part out the glass (there is probably an easy way to do this, I ended up smashing one window by accident). Glass just then slides out then slide the...

Easy enough to do? Looks a good set up.

I've actually still do fix them in mate. There holding there self up just now, I think I'm just going to stick a bolt through the bottom to keep them up.

It will certainly be used that's for sure, hopefully make this track day at the end of the month work permitting!

Well I've been sorting a few ends out this weekend to prepare for this track day. First was getting the cage in and pads welded. Some piece of kit the safety devices cage, very impressed! Then had a bit of a boredom streak this week staying up Aberdeenshrie with work in the arse end of no...

I can't remember the size I've got will need to check when I'm home but I'm sure it was 83mm and I run 15mm spacers.

I'd put some nimbus heat shield or similar down the back of the engine now you've removed the old stuff. Brake lines run along the back across from the manifold.

Love it! What's next then?

Get a gearbox off eBay or similar then get someone on here to fit it for you. I'm sure there will be a few around your way.

Haha yeah that's the one! Tell me track days aren't always £170? Couldn't believe the price!

Looks brilliant Craig, to clean for a track car! Seen the video of you and Fraser on Instagram fighting it out some ballsy corners haha! I'm going to book the 25th, few bits to do before then but looking forward to it!

I had this issue when I killed my battery for 2 weeks. Can't remember the reason the auto spark gave but it was something to do with this and the Ecu (or along those lines). He only took £20 as I think was an easy fix for them.

That sounds like a plan to work towards Craig. Hopefully have the cage in before then also. Cheers mate! Yeah definately glad I went down the cheap engine route first!

Fuel is surprisingly good lol. Shes got it in Eco pro most days and is getting over 400 miles to a tank!
