Small update, finally got the engine back in the car, fully mounted to the subframe & I'm genuinely impressed with how solidly it's in there :D
With the addition of a carbon fibre bonnet, we've managed to get somewhere close to 40kg removed from the front of the car and do something about...
Day before Bedford & we had some difficulties fitting the suspension
Almost ready
Comedy camber y0!
Ride height set
Made it to Bedford, successful day of testing & fettling and had a bit of fun in the process :D
The modified rear beam has exceeded all expectations, if...
I'll get a diff once I've un-raped my credit card you massive gay engined fcuking fcuk faced fcuk cnut............better? :rasp:
You'd think so but this 1 has had it's fair share of ballache lol, this shell was bought new in 1997 after the owner had a massive smash & by the looks of it...
I thought I had a thread on here but it seems I was wrong :S
I've got hopelessly addicted to trackdays so decided to build something proper to do them in
At the end of 2012 I got myself an ex-works rally shell already caged up etc, not quite a works shell per-se, but was owned & ran by aguy...
I know the volvo in question, helped fit the milltek to it and been for a blast around castle combe in it as well. Very capable car & surprisingly good fun to drive, I'm actually on the lookout for the saloon version of it, S70R, as my boring/fun daily hack but for the balls out uncompromised...

Ok might have missed out a slightly improtant piece of info, I don't actually have any diamonds yet lol :o I've only got plain blank caps that fit my wheels so my 1st thought was to try & find the diamonds on their own
I'm a bit stumped for where to find what I need. I'm getting my superturismo wheels refurbed and I want the renault diamonds to stick onto the centre caps, only problem is that I can't seem to find any that aren't already attached to a cap :S
I'm getting them done in a bit of a unique colour so...
Has anyone actually read the whole thread on PH? There's some very valid points made by legal experts and an ARDS instructor. It's almost impossible to tell what the wider effects of this case are until the written judgement is made public.
What is possible to tell is that an expert in the form...
I was contacted back in April by PPC magazine to get a Valver to Mallory Park in May for a photoshoot for an upcoming article/buyers guide in the July issue. So I went 1 better & got them 2 :cool:
Now that the magazine is out I can share some of the pics from the day to give you all a taster...
Excuse the bump but google brought me here. The thought has only just occurred to me that my track car wont have sun visors fitted - no roof mounting points & a cage are to blame for that - so was wondering about fitting a sunstrip to sort of counter that but I'm not sure where I stand legally...
Hmmmmmmmm dunno, I've only ever bought well used sets & did my 1st wet day at Oulton recently with them & I was quite impressed, better than I thought they'd be tbh, only had about 3mm tread on them.
Admittedly it wasn't wet enough for there to be any standing water anywhere but I say this more...
