Thanks guys :)
Testing will start next week but I need to see when as my tow car is off for some work and I don't have access to any other car I can tow with.
Schedule is:
Oulton 20th July Time Attack
Mallory 3rd August French Trophy
Donington 24th August Tintops
Oulton 21st September...
Mapping:
So didn't really touch the car for a few days and then went to start it on Monday to load it to the trailer to go for mapping the following day. It wouldn't fire, tried everything and no spark. Went to buy a new coil pack but still no use. I realised that I had left the ECU switched on...
Ahh yes a very nice chap :) Sorted out posting my broken ECU for me rather than me trying to wonder round and find the local post office lol
Now that would of been funny!
Cooolio :)
Haha yes sorry for the bad parking but it was the only place I could park with the back of the trailer up against something as it is Castleford ;) Just went for a bite to eat after a successful mapping session up the road at AET Motorsport.
Yes you should I will call you in a minute I need that...
I know what you mean Chip but I'm not talking about doing it for the rest of my life just a one off :) I've found the section on tsl now and yes doesn't look like I should be a million miles off. Will see how testing goes and go from there :)
It wasn't a BMW suspension that collapsed it was a Clio 172 racecar. I saw it on Facebook earlier. The Clio is owned by Darren who runs the trackday that it happened on and he put up an apology for it happening (nothing he could do really the spring just dislocated) and he is buying a...
Where did you find the lap times they do mate as I can't find anything on TSL etc?
Thanks Kenny :) Giving up had never really been on my agenda at any point thankfully but its not been plain sailing at times.
Lol it's my own fault for refitting the wire I should of known better I suppose. No...
Ahh congratulations :)
Ouch sounds like my season last year lol
Well I will be there either way I think mate so if you end up making it i'm sure i'll bump into you :)
Thanks guys well I have just booked a ticket so fingers crossed it's not going to be an issue :) Please come over and say hi and feel free to have a prod,poke and get in the car if you fancy!
Thanks Neil :)
F you :P
The BTM system does sound nice even better higher up the rev range :)
Lol best solution for there unfortunately. I don't like them but they do have there uses occasionally.
Don't joke I was looking at orange ones yesterday in Farnells catalogue ;) lol
Would I be okay to bring my Clio along but I will have to tow it as its not road legal? Ie will there be space for my trailer and tow car or will it be in the way. Booked the day off work for it so would be nice to come and bring the Clio on its first outing since its rebuild :)
Haha thanks I'm really happy with how its turned out but its taken a hell of a long time in wiring.
Finally I think it might be yes! Me too! Wish the car was quiet enough to do a Donington trackday but its too noisy :( that's what I fancy doing first with it.
So got some supplies today and made a new section of wire to the starter motor
Job done so reassembled the car and then it was running

Got a couple of small bits and pieces to do on Monday and then mapping has been moved forwards to Tuesday :)
Yes Will explained OHW to me yesterday, I think my main concerns is the class i'd be in and what the competitiveness of the other cars are. If they have silly power etc there seems little point. Didn't realise that Kelv, are you going to Oulton?
Sorry yes I meant July for Time attack and then...
Looking great Russ :) Have you run a cartek isolator before? I only ever hear negative things (many occasions) and problems surrounding them so if it was me and I hadn't fitted it i'd send it back to Tweaks and swap to an Armtech unit.
Best of luck for the remainder of the build
Haha thanks mate :) As Fred says it's still his so if I was swapping to the PMS item I would just be giving it back to him. It's a really good bit of kit though so I would suggest getting one if they come up for sale at some point
