The cable can be stiff in the sleeve, the pivot bar (above the pedal) in my experience goes rusty/dry causes a stiff pedal too and is very much overlooked or they can be worn out with age/wear, these are the issues I have seen with overly stiff/heavy 172 clutches. Drove one last week ( I don't...
Anyone know the score with transferring my track time to someone else? My car won't be "track ready" so it won't be going on. Can I just sell it on and send them the voucher/ticket?
We all know I like to compare things to the Twingo build. I've done this previously with the power overlays for all the different variants of the Twingo , this is the current setup vs the most powerful Twingo. One is a forged SC f4r and mine is F4rt (semi forged, can it be called that?)
Pulled this off the draggy today too. Without trying and on a plenty hot day. Already faster than it was. Will have to have a go with some cooler air 😎

So it's been pretty much 2 months since cracking a ringland and taking the car off the road. I've been pretty crappy with the updates, I keep forgetting to record anything or take pics as I've been popping out and doing bits when I've found the time or energy in-between work and life. Anyway the...
Its getting there slowly, need to put some miles on it now. fitted a new (second hand) john ashley exhaust today. The car idles like a pig/rx7 but it seems to drive nicely and is still very eager to go. Mapping is a month off yet but as long as it all holds together ill give it some laps at the...
As im no real blogger I fitted the pistons with my back to the camera and didn't even turn it on when I had the wife helping me drop the head back on🤦♂️
