@Russ Rallye
Cars coming along well, are you looking for a better spec than when you were running in the Tricolore?
Also are you still thinking of joint the Hot Hatch 750 motor club next season?
Thanks Josh
3 weeks until I am out at Cadwell for my first race with the Tricolore chaps.
Few things left to do...
Bonnet pins
Roof scoop
Tape up the new slimmed down loom
Re position the seat
Geo set up
Map at EFI on the 30th
Clean + Stickers!
Should be good!!
Yeah I havnt gone with a diff as I dont have any power gains due my engine being a 'Good one' (I think) it feels really strong and has held its own against much stronger clios with throttle bodies/ Turkish inlet. After speaking with northloopcup when I had my Gearbox done we spoke about the gain...
Few pictures of the Clio tonight now I have been down!
Got the top dash fitted in and trimmed the bottom dash down to the middle piece only as I am still running the heater.
I need to send my seat back as it is twisted would you believe! I will speak to JJC tomorrow and see what they say...
This season is more of a tester just to get the feel for it, fair bit to do yet to the car to get it where I want!
Along way of you get Tony haha will see how it runs in production plus
Update 2/8
Been up to the Clio tonight, huge amount of progress which is good news! Cage is all fitted now apart from the harness bar so I lined up my seating position so the brackets can be made and fitted tomorrow along with the harness bar.
All messy bits like dash and wiring are being...
When you put it like that it sounds bad, I spoke to JJC and they sorted me out with a with good discount of all clothing!
Also Tony hunter told me to speak to the Tricolore guy (Steve Vince) and he sorted me out with entry fee for the end of the year
Not sure about the 'invitation' part but after speaking to @Tony Hunter he said it okay for entering so I have just signed up with Steven Vince got my number and everything sorted. Just need to get the car up to standard!
Update
Went to the car today to clear the dash out and take the boot off to make it easier for welding.
I never want to remove the dash again never mind fit it back in It's a pin to remove.
If you have removed your dash can you send me pictures of what they look like now so I can get an idea...
The less said the better...I made a fuss in when I came to pay and she referred me to a prices chart...I was not impressed. I was only there around 10 minutes tops!
Got mugged off for a medical today at my GP! £101 they charged me absolutely nothing I could do as they had signed and stamped my form I was not happy considering I though it was going to be around £70....never mind lesson learnt.
Will get some pictures of the car at the weekend, hopefully will...
Yeah that's the one Custom Cages Clubman. Comes in a fair few bits and a DVD and images to fix it.
Not sure if you know it says you have to send a test piece off can anyone confirm this?
Past the ARDS test today hung around at Oulton park abit met a lad who I have seen before cannot remember his name though (Silver 172 having alternator problems)
Been up to see the Clio today hopefuly getting started this week.
I plan to, it's currently with the guy who is fitting a few other bits for me however he is an older guy and not sure if he has the time to do it....so i am prepared to give it a go with a friend who does welding for a living!
@NorthloopCup
Car went into the garage today to start fitting bits and bobs!
Received the cage and it looks.....confusing!! Has some good advice from people who have this cage so will attempt to get some pictures along the way.
