The billies seem fine, but I need to check them when they're coming off as they've done 20k miles or so and may need a refurb.
I can add you to the list bud, as a few other people have PM'd me about them asking for first refusal.
It's going into j-tech on the 29th for the day man :) I'll be dropping it off, working, then picking it up but I can let you know what time pick up will be. :)
So, more photos and a quick 30mins at lunch of swapping bits. I can't stand the blue in the engine bay which I inherited when I charged it, so;
As it was
Lubing up. "Snigger"....
New;
Hose cut to size and on;
Points of note. My car is filthy. Having lived outside for 7...
I'm on the AM slot. You can borrow it if you leave a deposit of £20k (that's not what I've spent before people start flapping). It's the value of how emotional I'd be if Lee stuffed into a tyre wall.
I'm quite excited to see how fast the radical and Ultima are on track tbh.
I just hope mine stands up to at least some of the things there, don't want it to be a day spent off the racing line with indicator on.
Just seen the list for Anglesey on the 2nd. Gulp. The flameshed is in more "esteemed" company it appears;
- Radical SR8
- Nissan GTR
- Ultima GTR
- Lotus Exige V6 Cup
- Lotus Exige S
- TVR Cerbera
And then an assortment of Civics, Caterhams and BMWs and a few others. Yay.
@BIGASH you heading...
Indeed. If the engine had gone I'd have wheeled it to yours, and left it there until I could face seeing it again 😂
Thanks, it's no detailed / unmarked show queen but it scrubs up ok.
Appreciate the comments Josh, I've got Anglesey, Oulton, and Blyton x2 booked. I'm hoping to do Snet and Bedford as well, so hopefully catch you at one of them :)
I'm sure I saw a BG with turinis today, Caversham park junction? Or was that you and I'm clearly blind when it comes to wheels!!
Looked good. Both the car and the other half ;)
Cheers bud, I'm pretty much happy with how it is now. Just start racking up the trackdays. When driving it today it made me realise how much I love it given its a miley, slightly pink French built tin can :)
I'm excited about Anglesey because it will be first my TD since some significant improvements that I felt I was "used to" with the previous spec. It will be my first TD with;
- braking: the brembos and ducts
- suspension: ASTs vs Bilsteins
- engine; another 70bhp / 60lb ft from the charger...
Yep, accompanied with a crazy "sucking the world in through a straw" noise.
How is yours running?
Yep, I'm out on track in the morning at CSS if you fancy a passenger lap come and find me and give me a shout bud.
Not yet bud, although I have bought a go pro so will get footage at Anglesey and may go out for a run / shoot some footage tomorrow if I get time. I need @Luke digital skills to help me.... :)
I find the noise hilarious. It's like a mini, snorting dragon. 😂
I went for the AST 5200 mate, with custom spring rates.
They can be an absolute pain in the arse to get hold of / sort (ask @NorthloopCup lol!) but J-tech are an AST distributor so I ordered with them (they're obviously doing the geo etc) hence the 3 weeks. Speak to Jamie there and he'll see...
