more than likely me chap, I think I'm pretty much the only regular RB around matlock, get loads passing through 'cuz holidaz innit' but just me on the commute! on the flipside your incognito motor didn't crop up on my cardar at all :(

silver, and I rarely plug for that but I think it'd work well with those wheels

welcome some projects on there :)

he's had an engine issue, put an unknown in there and its knocking its tits off so he's got to sort that. apart from that I think its mostly done ai he bought a gearbox off me years back when I lived in Stocksbridge and now randomly I live up the road, lol!

Re: East Midlands - Rolling Road Day - Date TBC ThomasBrentnall - Any Saturday Webby. - Not 24th of May or 28th of June Coops - with some wiggling probably any Saturday

ai Rob, his 106 is properly specced, he's been building it for 7 years or so, started life as a blue 1.1 iirc he used to be into his Mk1 Clio's as well and often pops up for a nosy to see what I'm up to with the fleet!

let me know when chap, I'd like to pop along, presumably dybotech yeah?

J28 = nightmare

yeah go for it, as said there will be plenty of mk1's to nosey over :)

I've literally just got it on the road matey, bought it last October and its sat in a lockup miles away all winter so this is my first week out. as such no idea on power, lol! its a totally stock F4R, 55k engine with a dodgy induction cone on it and a modified single box mongoose mk1 exhaust on...

ai it should be a good dice up, not seen that much variety in mk1's on track before so it'll be interesting to see how the specs differ and perform they aren't that light chap tbh, my turbo one was 960 with half a tank in it. that was caged, poly windows and stripped. hoping this one will be...

rofl, @Martin. you hurt the big mans feelings ;) @Chip-mk1 there's around 20 of us at Bedford 19th May (a Monday) least 12 mark 1's I believe so should be a giggle. Nice selection of them too, couple of F4R powered, couple of cup cars, couple with ITB, Adi's VAG 20vT one with turreted rear...

Derbyshire stalkers forum, Thomas is the owner ;)

if you scratch hard enough, it is still blue ;) @George182 @ThomasBrentnall - no gaying up in my beast..............ahem ;) more than welcome for a spin out though both of you....one at a time.

pic fail, 2 seconds!

Right finished the bulk of the work I wanted to get done this weekend, so I'm going to stick my neck out and say its done (no project ever is and even typing now there is 'tinkering' I have planned) however, its ready for track is the point! and in full marmite spec @TheEvilGiraffe and...

danward probably me mate, turinis? RS192 oh and it only looks immaculate at speed, don't stop and look closer...lol! think I spotted you as well pootling past

probably me mate, turinis? RS192 oh and it only looks immaculate at speed, don't stop and look closer...lol!

correct, I found this out, lol! I meant to take a pic today chap but forgot, i'll get one tomorrow and post it here

spate of that in Matlock Bath recently I heard.....

lol, thankfully they came with the car when I bought it so no worries :) Chip-mk1 wheels staying ;) for now at least. and i'll get a couple of pics today if I remember. but the wheels basically touch the front bumper even after I dialled as much as I could out with the AST adjustables

Yeah I'm intending on getting a new wheel. But part of me likes the original one, total juxtaposition to the rest of the not very original interior :)

been a bit useless keeping the project thread up to date, i'll sort that tomorrow but basically its done, MOT last weekend and Tax kicked in first of May so road testing/shakedown has begun. couple of niggles uncovered, mostly due to the massive amount of castor the 182 wishbones have put on...

as above, the cost is the prep, not the paint. decent prep (no buckets of filler) costs a lot as it take a lot of time I paid 3.2k for my respray a few years back but that was full hit in and out and some welding, including a new roof skin fitting.

get some air for crowd pleasing the piss heads at the bridge ;)

its not dangerously lean, its for emissions regs basically

and god damn F1's are awful wheels, literally surrender monkeys

I like marmite, I like this simples

skateboard grip tape :rasp:

I have a set of decent working rears for sale
