    Green Track Cup - Back To Basics

    Well casing was welded but cracked again during reassembley. Anyone near Hertfordshire have a some JC5 129 casings or a cheap box. CTS are going to get a price for new casings but expect ££££ for that. I don't even know what section of casing it is yet to so not sure if it has to be a 129 or if...

    Ph1 172 Track Car. Next Year I Go Racing - Hopefully!

    Sounds very similar to what recently happened to my gripper diff , car sat for a couple of months , I gave the box and oil change and on a quick test run it was really bad to the point the car was almost stopping. My box has been at CTS for the last 4 weeks getting rebuilt but they couldn't...

After CTS having the box for 3.5 weeks, having it stripped for over 2.5 they were...

    Taking my 172 north to clioturbo, gonna try there £5k conversion

    I would go with the 3k conversion and use the other 2K on a gearbox upgrade so you can use all the power.

    Supercharged 700bhp R8 vs supercars

    The actual shift was brilliant , really smooth change was just the click noise I didn't like .

    Supercharged 700bhp R8 vs supercars

    Yip use to have a V8 manual, was a nice car but lacked excitement in a way. I think the V10 would be a different ball game, as it would then have the power to match the chassis.

    LY 182 Glasgow

    From what I have seen they do sound to be fairly hard rollers , the black phase 1 with cat cams and bodies only made 159atw. I will be running my car there next month so be good to see how they compare to the other rollers it's been on.

    Green Track Cup - Back To Basics

    Justnow the car pulls through the gears with no real drop off in power but on the change to 5th , there is a noticeable drop of. By changing to a lower ratio 5th I could change up into 5th earlier on the two faster parts of the track. This then adds in an extra gearchange and with the pure...

    Green Track Cup - Back To Basics

    Hi Morgan my box has the lower 4.615 gripper FD fitted. I found the car faster out of corners with the lower FD , the only problem is im now hitting the limiter just before the breaking point heading up the straight and towards the hairpin in 4th. With the big drop in revs between 4th and 5th...

    Green Track Cup - Back To Basics

    Thanks glad it helped you pass a bit of time :smile: I have done a few quick calcs before raising the rev limiter from 7500 to 7800 or changing the 5th gear ratio to be more useable. On the gearing i'm on jut now upping the limiter only would mean the top end of 4th would be 109 mph up 3mph ...
