Lol at the poo. No one wants to use a portaloo at a track day.
I know it's not going to be a huge weight saving I'm just intrigued to see how much it may save.
The interior is already fully stripped, Aircon is coming out as is sound deadening, I'm running Superleggera's which are very light...
Perspex windows will come but I'm looking for interim alternatives until I go ott.
I ran out of fuel on my last track day so that wouldn't help.
Being a stocky little bleeder, I'm anywhere between 95 and 100kg. That said, the weight saving is still relative and worthwhile IMO.
Losing...
I'm on a bit of a weight saving mission with my track car and wondered if this would yield any results.
Now I'm not expecting miracles but very little helps.
Thoughts?
I couldn't tell on the dash lights as an ABS sensor is dicky so it's always on at the mo.
I died on a trackday. Misfire under load then cutout. Wouldn't start initially then died but was rough.
I've got the brackets on the way and am sourcing an alternator.
Do I need any new bolts to fit the new setup to my 172 or can they be taken from my old kit?
I fitted my Whiteline just before Blyton along with R888's so it's difficult to say which had the greater effect. It's certainly more planted.
Setting up was a bit of a guess so I've set it around 10mm from the top of the drop link. I might go harder to induce a little more twitch
Thanks Dan
Do you know of anyone reputable to set them up up here near Leeds as I just couldn't get to you?
What's the best number to call you on to order?
Thanks Scott. Is this likely to bring the service light on or just stay in the memory?
I can't tell at the moment as the service light is on due to a dodgy ABS sensor.
I found this.

I've just been around Blyton Park with Doncaster_K9.
I have a 172, Phil has a VTS both of which are stripped.
We're both running R888's, I'm on Sportlines and with a Whiteline. Phil is lowered, unknown suspension and top and bottom braces.
My plan has always been coils as I don't like the...
