Oops i forgot about this! I've been the last few years with my kids and we have had a great day out. Hopefully the kids won't realise we missed it this year. (Can't go tomorrow as we are busy)

Mine are road/stage rally cars. I will say it is a lot more comfortable as a passenger in a track car with a footrest in though

I've got a carbon one in mine and I had to make spacers to go under the bolts on that one. My previous car had a similar aluminium one to the link and I had to spacer the front on one side and think I cut the back edge and modified it to bolt in.

Wonder if adjustable pedal boxes will come under scrutiny too if they don't want things adjusted whilst in a seated position. Lot of people having to get the new passport type logbook on their cars to avoid having to make the changes from next year.

Shorter than normal too

I just knew before I clicked the link that there would be arrows involved

Air leak on inlet manifold will cause it to rev up. Did it on mine when I forgot to reconnect the servo hose

Standard pads on the rear of the rally car. No issues whatsoever Including using the handbrake on stages and locking the rears with Michelin soft inters on the back (super sticky). Other pads just dont the give the bite and if the standard pads got too warm they wouldn't work (which never...

They look quite nice but I think I will stick with my standardish inlet and 188/172 ft/lb torque

Engine sounded like a bag of spanners

At least the badges coordinate with the Disklok

Very nice. It will still break down though. Sorry.

I will sell you some 1deg shims if you like

Pop to your nearest halfords or petrol station or motorfactors as they will sell a temporary push in type cap at least.

Stages 1-4 I had medium hankooks on the front with a damp cut and soft michelin inters on the back Then from 5 onwards I put some old medium dunlops on the front as any chance of a good result had gone after I accidentally did an extra lap so got a stage maximum. 3 sisters wrecks tyres so I just...

Finally got round to uploading the incar videos from the last rally onto youtube

There is also the HERO RAC rally of the tests on over that way too this weekend https://heroevents.eu/events/rac-rally-of-the-tests/

Its the RAC rally (Roger Albert clark) which is a historic rally based on the original RAC rally which was the UK round of the world rally championship back in the day. http://racrally.org

I took lower front bumper off (separated from the grill), popped the bonnet with a long thin screwdriver and then put charger/jump leads on it.

I only ever run winter tyres on the vectra. Such a benefit in the wet especially when braking. 17" and pay 120 a pair for Michelin with 7mm left on them. Wonder if this country will follow other countries in making winter tyres a legality?

Get those on eBay bought

I had a guest pass from hyundai so went to Dyfi for both runs and Dyfnant for the evening run on Saturday. My other claim to fame is that Gus's codriver Craig navved for me on a road rally 19yrs ago!

Have the cage powder coated

Lol. No thanks. Would take in PX though

Won't be fixed anytime soon unfortunately

Shall I come to give you some tips? @JohnnyE @shiftspark @Nathan Evans

Stood up to that crash pretty well really

Must have been lunchtime as I was about most of the time really.

Yeah that bit destroyed itself but in all fairness it's done quite a few events now. Will have to find the time to get the box out and get it sorted.

Diff was working fine, some serious loading going onto the shafts when it dried out and hitting the kerbs stressed them more resulting in the inner cv on the long shaft pulling out a bit and side loading onto the gearbox out drive shaft snapping it off. Full rebuild required.
