Missus has just text saying the head bridesmaid for our wedding has just rang saying she's arranging their hen do 6th of 7th of July. Like f*ck I said, its CSF and I missed the last one and there's no chance I'm missing this one. Turns out i'm a selfish bstard and we only get married once...

Think they stopped selling the 80/100 to the public in 2016, however you can still get them for competition in certain race series like the fun cup.

Nice! Look forward to seeing them all out on track. I'll be in the silver Octavia pottering around the track ?

Haha no chance, last time we were there at the same time he binned it at Druids with your John in it if I remember? Terrible passenger me mate, made Mike stop after 1 lap of Croft so I could get out, lol.

Haha nice! Seems every time I do Oulton Foxy is there, must be a 2nd home, lol.

Fair play for the re-shell. Think I would have called it a day after Spa. Get it down to Oulton 2/3, few going off here now. Always good to see this out on track.

Looks good, look forward to seeing it at Oulton in March.?

Yeah the 80/100 compounds were the same just depended what size tyre. Think he rated them if I remember, he said they wore quickly I think.

I'll bring them anyway just in case they're crap!

Anyone used this compound? Picked up a used set recently and cant find a shred of info online how they perform, the 100 is competition compound but no idea on performance. I know the 180's are a bit gash but to be expected being so hard and a road/track tyre similar to the AD08R. I ask as I wont...

No need for fancy discs, OE Pagid or Brembo HC from ECP are more than enough. Save your money seriously. If you are adamant on the above go with the Brembo set-up.

OE Pagid discs all-round, with OE Pagid rear pads and OE Pagid DOT 4 fluid with EBC yellow stuff front pads would be decent and not to expensive. OE Pagid bits from ECP £147 https://www.eurocarparts.com/basket Yellowstuff front pads £110...

How come you're upgrading, track work? I find the brakes on the VRS which are exactly the same as the ED30 excellent. I use DS2500 all-around on the road and DS1.11 front/DS2500 rear on track and they are superb. Best single pot set up I've used TBH. Other front options are: TTS S3 R32 Leon...

They do indeed. You could even get the adjustable top mounts for more camber and sell the pms ones.

BC's DR's are worth a look and come with spring rates of your choice or find a used set of AST's. I'd also fit a RARB for more adjustability.

Spring rate is preference really. Sure the 750 kits come stiffer at the rear when the cup racers used them. What other supporting handling mods do you have roll bars, tyres, negative camber etc?

Really nice motors. More of a GT cruiser than a sports car though weighting near 1600kg.

Seems cheap that. Really like these and think they'd make a great daily/track car.

Didn't have it under braking but mine used to go really heavy going through shell at Oulton and then back to normal on exit. Also in tight right handers the car would accelerate on its own.

How was the ride comfort on cup suspension? Also what was the clutch firmness like, especially in heavy traffic?

Changed the back box for an upcoming MOT on the Mondeo ST which was a piece of piss. Dropped of the kerb ramps and ping, snapped front spring. Tried changing that and sheared the pinch bolt in the strut/hub carrier. Used hub now required. Both tie rods also needed replacing. On closer...

Just stick with the suspension you have, it'll be fine and if you can stiffen the rear shocks even better. Get yourself a set of front camber bolts and get the car aligned properly. A good start would be max negative camber either side with a smidge of toe out (-0.6mm or -0.06 degs either side)...

Standard discs in Brembo HC, Pagid OE or Mtec grooved/dimpled. Pads is all down to how you brake? PBS is a good all-round option albeit they need heat to bite properly. If on a budget and want cold bite, Mintex M1155 front and Pagid OE rears is a decent set up. Ferodo DS1.11 are the best.

Looks decent that mate. Only If I was in the market for a track car ?

Hope it's not serious mate and you can enjoy it having put all that wedge into it.

I made more splitting my Clio with a knackered engine than I would have selling it working mate, you just need to be patient and have another mode of transport. Going from your list above most items would move quickly.

Let see how they all get on when this winter really kicks in and i'm sailing past them all in a Skoda sporting a vagina with a massive wide on!
