Thats a bloody good point actually. Might not be massively different in terms of pace to be fair..... and gives me a convenient excuse for coming last lol
Yep its hard to believe but its true. Pretty much every sprint car limited to 1a has them on
Now AD08R has replaced them. Not sure where msa will place them as compound is slightly different
Ive just had some BCs supplied and fitted by MickPM (1 week ago) and purchased some new AD08 for sprinting. So I would need to purchase some standard suspension and some 1b tyres as the provisional regs stand at present and take a hit on the BCs and AD08s.
Not a problem but I dont want to...
The idea i believe is to encourage more people into this series? The points raised are simply people pointing out their concern with the goal of making sure the series IS attractive to them.
Obviously at some point the regs will be finalised and people can like it or lump it but until then I...
Blimey you dont mess about. Cant believe you got all that done after driving home. Sorry to hear about the engine isdue too thats really bad luck. Hope you get it up and running again soon and doesnt cost too much hard earned.
I was really impressed with the way the car had been prepped...
Ah right ;) If they are saying exhaust is free then that makes sense but if they are saying swap oem parts from similar models then its opening up a can of worms and opening the regs up to much greater scope of interpretation. Keep it simple
Then you'd still be cheating lol. I agree its difficult to scrutineer but thats not a reason to allow.
By the same rationalle you could swap the 172 engine/ gearbox/ ECU etc with a "standard" 197
It says standard manifold and wheel size.
I assume that meansa 182 manifild on a 172 is not allowed and wheels must be 16x7
Ive not read my bluebook for racing yet (im lazy) but for sprinting a catch tank is only needed if running a breath to atmosphere. Is 2L tank manditory for this...
Really enjoyed watching the racing today. Has given me a real taste for getting involved in the new class next year.
Was stunned how quick Tony and James were round Oulton :cool: just a shame to see a bit of misfortune for them both in the 1st race :(
Sorry to ask what is most likely a dumb question but what is involved in fitting a cage. I've heard people talking about what a pain it is. Is this something I would be able to do myself or most likely taking it somewhere to get fitted professionally. I have quite basic mechanical expertise btw...
Looks good and low cost to me, definitely interested in this.
Shame about adjustable dampers since I've just bought a set but completely understand why non adjustable has been stipulated.
Im looking to get into wheel to wheel racing at some point from currently competing in MSA sprints. (Need to do my ARDS test and get a license yet though). Have looked at 750 Stockhatch and Tin Tops and was very interested in the 750 182 Cup series until I researched further and read some...
I had the same concerns before trying it. On paper the price per track mile/ time is extortionate but its completely different to track days. Because youre against the clock and competing against others its brilliant fun.
Because you do so few laps and therefore very little wear on tyres...
