fastest we managed on the 2nd outing at Oulton yesterday was 2:11 no passenger and half a tank and very little traffic on track and nice n dry. might get some tuition next time though.

see that's why I like having your fountain of knowledge lol I didn't even think to check them. Cheers.

Well I did the CV boot on my passenger side last night and all was well did my track day at Oulton park today with no problems no knocking or anything (bar slightly boiled brake fluid on the last stint lol) anyway when I drove home with no issues I came to reverse up on to the drive and had what...

What a nightmare today was, managed to get everything all done and back together this morning. Went to Blink Motorsport to have my wheel alignment/tracking and camber setup and when I arrived seen my cv boot had been rubbing on the brake line and split the new one I had fitted (gutted and pissed...

Thanks guys will have a look at the Renault Wolverhampton eBay shop or message Adam.

Cheapest place for these or should I just go a Renault main dealer? and does anyone know how much Renault charge?

I use the Conti Contact 5 on my missus car for ferrying our 6 month old daughter about in and they're very good and get decent mileage (only a Nissan Qashqai so doesn't get hammered) and have used the Goodyear efficient grip on her Fiesta and they were also pretty decent (same again it didn't...

So really you should stand them up vertically (as if they were on the car) didn't know that. How come its bad for the tyre? Even though thinking about it every trailer you see they're always stacked stood up and like on F1 they are in those racks the same.

Depends what type of driving your doing mate. Fast road/Track bit of both or just going the shops or work. I have just got 4 x Michelin PS3 for £47 each off my tyres (I get free fitting off a mate so the delivered part is fine for me and saves a few quid) and they're very good I used them on...

eBay they were about £20 upwards depending on what type you buy as I was looking for some to put my spare set of track wheels in. Just put Tyre Storage Bags into the search. @imprezaworks

Just gotta nip out in the morning to pick up some jubilee clips as everywhere was closed by the time I got to that point lol

Any particular reason mate?

Thanks for the input guys guess i'll have to get some of those MAPs ones then when I get some pennies lol spent up on track days haha. What lengths are you guys running with the MAPs ones and what Loctite did you use? Cheers

I've seen those spreaders but I ended up using a plastic pop bottle with the end cut off and washing up liquid and slid it over then managed to push the edges over with a spoon lol didn't wanna use a screw driver in case I split it. Only knackered the STUPID little metal clips you get so I'm...

Cheers bob I'll give it a go and see if I can get the end off.

How do I get the new boot over the end of the drive shaft? I didn't get a cone or anything. Up to here was easy.

@bloke is this an easy enough job to do? I'm stood in the motor factors now buying bits.

Need to get this done tomorrow any ideas on if I can just go and get a boot from motor factors and how big a job is it? Cars on axle stand now and ready to go or wheels back on and take it somewhere tomorrow. Would rather tackle it myself as I want to learn.

Did one track day at Oulton with Carbon Lorraine pads on my shiny new white speed lines and they were coated with Gtechniq c5 and carlight/collanight (not 100% on the wax) endurance 915 and they have pretty bad staining off the brake dust but the front face where the wheel bolts go through have...

Managed 2:33 but only timing we had is the video from the go pro so not totally accurate (bloody 26gb of video lol think he left it in 4k or something haha, first track day and first time at Oulton Park) my dad in the passenger seat on brand new Michelin PS3 (had to peel the stickers off the...

Still can't decide which one to go for, now I know these hold the wheels on so don't wanna buy cheapest just because I'm tight lol but price varies quite a lot. Ktec - £90 posted loctite supplied Pure Motorsport - £115 + postage loctite supplied eBay - Elite Developments £75 free postage just...

does it not use box section welded in then you weld to the box section? I don't have a Oreca cage so might just be talking out my arse lol.

what are these like for engine tuning compared to say a new fiesta ST

That looks very nice, I would have one in LY myself too the gloss black suits it.

get a hoover or a wet vac and clean it lol some microfiber cloths and wipe everything down looks good. Or strip it and have the track look lol no carpets or interior to clean then haha.

Nice car same colour as mine, I took my 172 Cup on track for the first time last week it was a blast lol going back again on Tuesday. I'm pretty local to Oulton Park so hoping to get quite a few in this year.

I would do a few track days in it get some enjoyment then sell it, wouldn't really reflect much on the value of the parts I wouldn't have thought.

Utterly astounded if some idiot buys that.

Where are they based? I might buy myself a 2nd set lol for around that price.

I don't know you but now hate you lol @Fletcher
