if it was me id do the shenstone and district curborough championship.
I believe its 35 quid to enter the championship, and there are 9 events over the year, so if you made 4 of them its well worth it. I guess you dont even need to enter the championship, but for 35 quid I dont see why not...
just copying my facebook post here as I am kind of desperate
Kill switch resister?
Wiring in my kill switch and it has a 3ohm 11 watt resister that goes to earth. It has snapped and I need one by Sunday, any idea where I can pick one up from tomorrow? closer to yorkshire the better...
I was speaking to Paul Roddison at Roddisons Motorsport in Sheffield last week, he showed me a battery he uses on all his race cars. I think they are £240 and weight around 0.5kg. They are so light its insane. I will be doing the light weight battery route before any fibreglass panels now!
try bidspotter or the likes for toolrooms and workshops being auctioned off, loads of cheap stuff, vices normally go for a 10er max.
There is a big one in sheffield today but its all drills and taps etc.
After some unexpected bills unsure I can stretch to some khumo V70's for march, if not will go with the PS3's it currently has on.
I will have to sort the tyres for april then, its only a test day anyway.
Jobs still left to do are:
Fit the cut off switch/pull chord and stickers

Thanks James!
it says 3L on the searches ive done, think the 3 quarts, 2.8 litre will be enough?
Can I just pump from the top, or have my mate pumping? :P
my cousin has an r26 and I much prefer the clio, miles better imo!
If it was me I would buy back cheap as piss and repair, then use it. Its ok saying you wouldn't want to chuck loads of money at it via servicing and running costs but that's all they are, they don't tend to increase the value of...
anyone reccomend what oil I should use and where is best place to buy?
The car will do no more then 200 miles within the year and more then likely less then 50 as its for sprinting only.
Also is there a certain tube people buy to fill it with / make it easier?
Thanks
Sorry to bump an old thread, how did people get on with the R022 cage with when running a HANS?
I sent some pics to a scrutineer last week and he commented saying the harness bar looks to low and it will fail its logbook if its above 10 degrees. I rang the MSA technical department and they tell...
Update:
I have just took the car to the weigh bridge and it weighed in at 930KG.
I will try to loose another 30-35 KG just to get into the 800's, but mainly so when my fat 108KG arse is in it it still comes in under 1 tonne!

Hi guys, after some advice into setting up my car for sprinting. It's a fully stripped car with BC DS coil overs and 10kg front 8kg rear springs. With top mounts.
I have fitted these over the last mo th and the car hasn't ran since.
I will be running hkhumo v70a tyres in soft coupound.

just a few pics for updates.
Fitted the suspension
Cleaned and painted the calipers just so they look fresh and I had a spare hour.
Sprayed the fibreglass headlight blanks fitted
Also cut a hole to let air get straight to the filter.
I then started cutting the doors and fitted...
I think the classes in regards to 1A 2A etc are relative to what championship you are doing. I will be doing 3B for examplewhich is modified production upto 2000cc in my championship, but I think in another that could be a different class e.g 2B. I might be wrong though.
The easiest way to stop...
Best thing to do, get a list of all the mods and ring the MSA, speak to technical and they should be able to advise. That's what I did at first when I wasn't sure
