    Anyone know this flamer?

    FWD sucks ass. 3rd needs a synchro. Message me if you’d like the car. Other wise I’ll be breaking it.

    The car did do ok. It giving in after four steady laps in the wet pissed me off but it wasn’t a hard fix. I just didn’t gel with it.

    That kit car wasn’t fun though, just scary... My first kit car was a laugh though with only 150bhp. I think I’m a RWD boy though, FWD just seems a bit blunted.

    Well...... Today wasn’t a total waste of time. 60 laps done. Half a tank used. My two mates got a drive of it too. Issue with it was the rear exhaust hanger breaking, the movement then causing the cat to manifold joint to open and bugger the gasket ring. Cable ties and some exhaust paste...

    I’ve packed the cameras but I’ll see how the car gets on first. Might do a bit in the afternoon.

    Not touched the shifter as I couldn’t be arsed to take the cat off to get at it. All it’s had is the joints lubed up. The shift issue is a synchro and not a miss alignment. You can feel the graunch and resistance on any shift above around 4k. Lucky most tracks are 3rd upwards so it’ll be fine.

    Just been through Cubs thread and the box was refurbed the grand total of 6000 miles ago. Part of the box refurb was the synchro on 3rd! Renault boxes do not last well!

    I’ve been looking at Sadev’s. I’ll run this box for the mean time and just nurse it.

    Knackered synchro by the feel of it. Might try some posh gearbox oil in there to see if that helps.

    First day of using it. First impressions: It doesn’t like going into 3rd gear It’s set up very twitchy Front wheel drive isn’t very exciting It’s kinda quick Seats are comfy It doesn’t sound super charged It’s rides quite well for AST’s Brakes are really good Dunlop’s don’t like the cold

    Set about the PMS tonight. After realising what an utter f**k taking it off and repressing the bearing would be. I decided to try to lube the thing up as all the joints were dry. 70% improvement straight away. So I’ll save the bearing till another day. Probably when I fit a Sport cat.
