Bloody hell!

Thanks buddy, I will be at Donny, I will be doing all the races this season (as long as the car holds up). Looking at the pics, the cage looked like it did its job, cant see where its folded? it is a low profile cage anyway as its for a Celica, I think it was a Safety Devices one (they have a...

So where am I with the car at the moment? Next week I am going to send off the front suspension shocks to Spax to be re-valved and to order some Faulkner springs all round, cant stretch to the AST II's at this stage, so im going to have to make best with what I have. Spoke to Spax who have...

Thanks, I was in 5th place, until one of the race leaders had a mechanical failure, I then shifted to 4th, so 3rd place was in my sights ;) I have a taste for it now...

I also forgot to mention I won 3rd in class in race one too :)

Toastfrenzy, thanks, yes the car handles now as it should, like it did last year at Spa, bags of confidence and drives in a straight line without the front trying to snatch. Now I can fine tune it and get ready for Donny in next month.

Yes I did, rear sides was bolted in so I could easily take them out if I crumple the car, the side windows have since been replaced with a different brand, they came with the Kevlar doors (ex race car) the rear poly window came with the GRP tailgate that was from a ex VLN race car (still has H&R...

Few track side pics from the weekend

indeed, very impressive...good pics too

I do follow on FB. How are you getting on with the Spax "beefed" up suspension, anyone had any issues?

Bit of an old thread, just wanted to know how you are getting on in the 182 series?

I will find out the details of the cage, lets not speculate. The guy is posting pics over on TARC, will copy some over with his permission

I did watch that vid yesterday over on TARC, so glad ok, my heart sank when I saw it on its roof and the ambulance out on track.

Bloody hell Tony, done give up fella.

I got fed up being out bided, and some of the transponders went for more than they are new lol...

just buy one of these for £130 with one year subscription...just means you have to charge it up prior to race, can be swapped to another car if needed http://www.mylaps.com/en/products/car-flex-transponder/70

Just buy the Valeo as this is what Renault use...doesn't exactly answer your question though.

Ok thanks, it plays halfway through on my laptop? stupid thing...

Guys, does the youtube video for race one automatically play halfway through?

Finally got the new rear suspension on the car with "new rear ride height" from Spax (long story wont go over it again) and also adjusted the front camber in the Paddock (was miles out) the night before, didn't manage to have time to corner weight the car or do a toe alignment (used a long...

That dash looks fantastic

Bloody hell...Im gutted, hated seeing this happen, was well and truly gutted (ruins what was a really great day). Really hope you get the car back together in time for Donny mate. Thing is, this can happen to anyone of us...its a lottery.

You could use aluminium sheeting to make a horizontal air deflector riveted onto the wishbone, this will pick up air up to a second are deflector (sounds complicated but looks simple). I have seen this on a race prepped Clio. Likewise having air coming through the fog light housing and hitting...

Cheers mate

Engine oil and filter changed, new gear box oil in, front camber checked ( was slightly out) and a general inspection on the car today. Will load up and leave for Castle Combe tomorrow, aim to get to the track for around 4-5pm. Going to play about with the Vbox camera location tomorrow, going...

37 cars on the grid im sure it will be clean lol

As a reminder I will bring the hardware power pack (will need wiring into car) so you are welcome to borrow that if you think the batteries will die at some point

Yep iv seen ppl do that too, even with digital scales. But i have seen some right horrors too where the ground is no where near level. I do have a spread sheet that gives you the cross weight if you do you use scales, so I actually did consider this My biggest problem is finding level ground, as...

Thanks buddy, but dont think I will have time.
