    tarc thruxton

    Well had my second race meeting this weekend at thruxton. As i have never been there before i was a bit nervous to say the least and with doing some mods to the car setup i was also unsure if i had made it better or ruined it. The day started of damp but was due to improve as the day went...

    fitting 10mm front wheel spacers

    yes production class, 10mm per side. it is just something i was toying with as adding camber and toe to the rear has widend the rear so i thought i would try to even it up by adding some to the front.

    fitting 10mm front wheel spacers

    fitting 10mm front wheel spacers

    how does this work with the 10mm as the original center sticks through so you wouldnt be able to have a raised center.

    fitting 10mm front wheel spacers

    hi i have a question about fitting 10mm spacers to the front of my 182 race car. when the spacers are on and you put the wheel on it is clear of the center spigot. is this ok as the wheel bolts will hold it in position or is it a big no no. any advice would be helpfull. cheers rob

    Help needed with my 182 track car

    if you are just on track then about 2.5 to 3 degrees on the front with a little toe out is a good place to start then do some track time to check the balance/ feel and then you can tinker from there. whats you local track? in my experience not much demand as there is alot of them out there, but...

    Help needed with my 182 track car

    hi there, just rip everthing out you can if it is just a track car. it will improve acceleration/braking and corner speed as you have less weight to move. you may need to make small adjustments the more you do and the more track time you do to suit your own driving style. how much front camber...

    Track pads

    yep the rc8s are epic, tried both ds2500 and the 3000 but werent up to the job really. tried the rc5s aswell and found them ok in the wet but went off too quick in the dry. anyway if you managed to get 4 trackdays out of the ds2500 then maybe the rc6 could be a good shout (my ds2500 did 21/2...

    172 track car brake set up help needed

    they are fantastic a bit like hitting a brick wall. i have tried the ds2500 which were ok but did fade a bit after a good run and only lasted 2 1/2 track days. the ds3000 didnt fade but only lasted 1 track day and didnt give a good feel. the rc8 were great. very predictable good feel

    Coilover/suspension setup. Best value for racing???

    your very kind dan, but as said to be fast you dont need to spend lots. try playing around with your front camber and toe, also your rear toe to give better turn in.just do a 1 thing and a little at a time to find out what suits you. but on the flip side if you have money to burn you could buy...
