    November 2015 Update: Having not touched the car since Castle Combe due to other commitments, I spent this week getting a few of the odd jobs done on the car before this weekends final race at Snetterton. I ordered a pair of new rear springs, coming down by 20nm per spring, while the ASTs...

    172 Cup track toy build

    Maybe the numbers are on the top/bottom of the spring, they will normally be etched in if not shown on sides. Just an idea

    Yes, in the Tricolore Trophy you don't get a official practice session as such, just 15min quali/practice window. Makes it interesting when you have never been to a circuit before and have to put in a quick lap time.

    sonny172cup "track car to race car project"

    Just seen this... Yes I use one but hard only on test/track days, its very hard to check on a race day due to being kept in the holding area.

    Happy days, if these start to wedge means your getting air in somewhere, top inner then top outer. When I ran my WW we was looking at making up a bottom pipe linking the 2 nipples to help equalise the pressure, never got round to testing it.

    And yes I used a pyrometer however camber set ups can cause heat to generate more than they normally would, so I don't really like to use them (through experience).

    sonny172cup "track car to race car project"

    I thought it wasnt as much due to the fixed axle (beam) but will only induce positive camber if the car c***s a rear wheel. I understand that the more camber shims you add and evenly lowering (even corner weighting) will change the camber in small increments. Just seemed mine was out more than...

    Ok... As Mark said the wd40 or ptf cans have the small red straw so hopefully you can insert that and squirt away until your hearts content

    Martin's Track Clio 182 Project Thread

    Glad all went well Martin. I take it your return spring is in good condition too and moves freely? As said before make sure you oil inside the cable, unclip cable and put few drips of oil or ptfe spray that will keep moisture at bay and stop any rust... Worst case scenario the throttle cable is...

    @Mini182 No I haven't tried the R1 only the H1, this is the first season I have tried Dunlops, normally use AO48S/R888. What compound are the R1s regarding the spring designation that's right and yes mine does have that, there seems to be confusing, I know what my spring rates are and the...
