Can you please message @Sunglasses_Ron or @Nik . Track time can’t be sold on, as it won’t work on the day. It needs to be sold back to CS so that we can then go to the reserves list.
Nik is the nicer of the two, but he’s very busy. Ron just eats donuts and messes about with forum name so he’s...
My mate (a valeter) has a titan one. Don’t know what model but he raves about it. I’m going to give it a go when my Charles dies. But he’s about 6 and still showing no signs of his age bless him. And you’ve seen the s**t I have to clean. 😂
Fair play, that’s the worst wheels I’ve ever seen on a 197/200.
Heroic track cars though. Driven properly there are very few standard cars that can keep up.
Autoglym interior cleaner. For every part of the interior it’s amazing, just dilute it a bit if you need to clean any leather with it.
Smells proper clean afterwards too.
With the wet vac, put hot water in it and nothing else. Spray the fabrics with interior cleaner, agitate with a drill brush...
I have the standard valver rack in mine. (With power steering looped off)
If my memory serves, I fitted Williams track rod ends. Or maybe R19 16v ones?? I can’t remember. But I’ve 100% got a standard valver rack in mine.
I have a williams subframe. But I think (was a long time ago!) they’re just stronger and the same size as valver.
Other shafts do fit, but they knock on hard cornering as they bottom out inside the gearbox.
Ph1 172 driveshafts are needed. (Unless you fit a gripper then you’ll need the shorter one to be shortened by 25mm)
I have a williams ARB so can’t help there sorry.
I have a standard valver rear end. But on my Kangoo van I fitted 182 rear hubs simply by drilling/tapping the holes out. And...
She’s so close to being finished. Going to look wicked parked next to these two. I can’t wait to get it back just to park it up next to them.
(RB will be the wife’s daily once @lemonnobby has worked his magic)
Went to Birmingham the other week to collect 2 cars from a dealer inside an old multi story car park… 🤦♂️😂
Anyway, these were his retirement he said. Proper tidy ones too.
Imagine it was built well, RWD, had 250bhp. They wouldn’t have been able to build them fast enough. It’s a proper good looking car.
But Rover just Rover’d.
The engine in my track car is 24 years old and it lives at 6,750rpm.
Regular oil changes and let it warm up properly and they’re probably one of the most reliable Petrol engines ever made.
