    Another Mk1 coming out of the woodwork

    I've bought 1 about 2 weeks ago but the cretin I've bought it off hasn't sent the bloody thing yet :mad:

    Another Mk1 coming out of the woodwork

    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...

    Another Mk1 coming out of the woodwork

    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...

    Clio Cup vs Heavily modified Volvo v70

    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...

    Wheel badges - help required

    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

    Wheel badges - help required

    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...

    Trackday Claim for hitting another car

    No, was a mk2

    Trackday Claim for hitting another car

    From reading the thread on PH it would seem 3rd party insurance cover at track days on the continent is the norm & only costs something like €25

    Nobby's Nuts written down the side?

    Trackday Claim for hitting another car

    I remember watching a flash prick in a brand new 360CS get thoroughly humiliated by a pink Clio Cup car at Donington a good few years ago

    Trackday Claim for hitting another car

    The situation would still be the same if both drivers had insurance, how can people not understand this?

    Trackday Claim for hitting another car

    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...

    Sunstrip Law?

    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...

    Track car wheel & tyre advice needed

    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...
