Really sorry to hear about this guys, Jay told me about it last night and its a real shame but sometimes you've got to put other things ahead of cars :( I was looking forward to racing with you this season but hopefully still see you both in the paddock and best of luck with the sale!
My bad lol! First time I spelt it as Locktite and then went back and corrected it and it must of auto corrected to that lol! I meant to say we loctited it ;) (It just autocorrected it again ;))
I know I thought it couldn't be right and called RT up but they said there is no way of doing it through the config :(. Thanks for that I thought that was also via the buttons, I need to do that also as the way I set it up at Anglesey only showed me the lap time when I crossed the Start/Finish...

Yes I can understand that Mark and you seem to have jumped in the car and been quick from the start, I think for me it will take a lot longer to get upto speed so I don't really need to do anymore development...
Look's great Pete :) Well done on both of you passing the ARDS test!
I have had exactly the same issue with my passenger side top mount although mine is the PMS kit. We have just lactated in place and marked it up so that we can see if it does start to slacken off again.
Who was running the...
Let me know if you need any help Mark as I am setting it up Monday night. We have just had to install the four buttons for it as RT said it's not possible to program it through the config software. I presume you have the four dash2 buttons?

Yes hopefully Pete although one of my friends has managed to get day off work so luckily got some one to help me on/ off the trailer :)
Yes I started to get everything ready last night and was up until 3.30am...

Thanks mate :) Yes I need to start driving it more really as I hate piling money into it and only using it once a month but I suppose the more I use it the more it'll cost lol!
Looks great Lewis :) Really sorry to hear about the gearbox playing up again! I stand to my previous comments, you really don't hang around ;) Big respect for taking it all apart yourself without any experience of doing it

Thanks for all the comments :)
Yes Russ I will see you at Harewood :D
Let me know if you fancy it Colin :) I will drop you a PM in a second ;)
Thanks Lewis I will probably be doing Snett later in the year...
I wish mate but i've already got Monday, Tuesday off for Brands :( Don't suppose your free Tuesday?
Haha I will aim to qualify last then :) No but in all seriousness my aim for the first race is just to finish the race and then build it up from there :)
I like the sound of your aim though...
Sounds good Mark, From what everyone says the RT stuff can be a pain to get setup and working but once done then it is fit and forget so I am looking forward to that stage ;)
The diff does make a big difference and it was the one thing that really stood out to me when I drove the car at...
The car's looking great Mark :) Sorry to hear you are having issues with the race tech stuff we have also been suffering technical issues with some of their stuff although I am hoping that this will be sorted when we are at Brands on Tuesday!
It will be interesting to see how you develop the...
Yes I hadn't really thought about the gain's from the transmission so thats a good point :), Yes drove one at Palmersport day they really are epic :D
That is a very kind offer thanks Porkie :) We still need to sort out meeting up on a trackday in the near future!

ARDS Test and Brands Trackday:
On Tuesday I went up to Teeside Autodrome for my ARDS test. They have a really good setup and when you arrive they give you the medical, take passport photos for the application...
Awesome result in Quali Mark :) I was checking your progress on TSL and as said above I got confused and thought the 3rd place was the race result but then realised lol.
Real shame about the start and coming off but as you say its all a learning experience and at least the car is OK and ready...
I had the same issue the other month :( I ended up just getting a full copy from amazon! Seemed to be the cheapest/most reliable and I think it was £108
