I've had this for few years as above 10-12 hour days got rid of most of my back issues, it's similar features to Secret Labs Titan current on offer for under £200, quality is great as they are most known for sim racing stuff. https://www.gtomega.co.uk/products/element-series

If OP wants to head into development roles then having your own public GIT repo and building up a little portfolio of code and applications you've done either through online learning or some of the various coding challenges that get set around the world can do wonders for your CV and make you...

I sold mine very similar mileage 1 prev owner etc but no bodywork issues and fully original cup suspension for 6500 for reference if that helps.

A quick update on work I've done to 106 to date... Removed skirts Removed door trims Removed mirrors Removed headlights Removed interior fan Removed lap timer Lightened front bumper and fitted quick releases Lightened rear lights Custom front air dam and splitter Custom spolier / gurney flap...

Hi Rich, it's this model so 2.08m overall width but 1.70m width bed, it's tight for 106 but fine now I removed storage box. It's tows great too even with my old Volvo near 100% weight https://www.nwtrailers.co.uk/brian-james-a4-transporter-125-2002/ You've reminded me should do an update on...

Tried to post video but Facebook won't play so here's an uncropped screenshot, shop fire all gone, opens draw to Milwaukee works first time.

Do it, got one works a treat

Curborough usually has various track/rest days on for £70-80 so lot cheaper than bigger track days.

A while since update but little by little, the 106 is getting there, in a one step forward two steps back kind of way. Over winter I rattle canned fibreglass bonnet and boot which came out good enough for purpose. A lesson learned on value of prep and not messing with it mid coats 😂. Removed my...

Cool to have local rally I'll stick it in diary. Last time went to something that close was back in 1995 RAC Rally Special Stages at Rother Valley about 200 yards from our house.

Anyone got any recommendation for a basic pressure washer please? Karcher I had for 4 years just died.

Forgot to do any updates for a while. First competitive outing didn't go to plan as after a very steady first practice (beat my Clio pb time by a second but at least 2/3 second more in the car to come) I was all excited but had starting issues from a dodgy crank sensor. But enjoyed catching up...

Nice one, good luck today

I also spoke to Sandy Brown who built the engine on phone, lovely guy spent hour and half talking me through history of this engine and builds including most recent in 2019. I've got dyno charts from his mapping sessions showing 230bhp / 168lbft. Only thing I need is MSUK passport so hopefully...

A quick update on 106, so since it arrived I haven't been able to start it. Life's been busy with new job, kids and house extension so working on car kept getting put back. So I decided to book some events and force the issue. 24th August Curborough track day 4th September Curborough sprint...

https://its.co.uk/milwaukee/milwaukee-special-offers/ some discounts here if any use

This is like the endless lists I make of all things want to do with car build but you actually do it, whereas I stay stuck on step 1 - get it running

Well that's 2nd Milwaukee tool bought thanks to you 😂 inflator to go with impact for race days

I've bought my first impact wrench and see what all fuss is with these red ones, got a voucher from work (as left to start new job) so cost me £80 for Milwaukee M12FIW38-202B

For 2023 curently think Midland Speed Championship would be ideal as can learn some new tracks and still including Curborough/Harewood, otherwise do a full Harewood Championship. I'll still do plenty or SDCC events at Curborough as the people are great and for a track so simple looking its still...

Never ending cycle. Are you just doing one off events or a championship?

Yeah I know Mark well, he's fast in anything just look at lap records and his Clio with PMS engine is rapid. Also all his cars he preps immaculately.

Ah cool, will be in 3B so up against some quick cars and experienced drivers but loads of potential in car to explore for many seasons to come hopefully.

Aiming for Curborough 10th July / Harewood 6th August

Grandad spec tow car being picked up Friday 😎 Full Volvo History, fresh MOT and towbar, decent to drive too (not too massive) so will do for camping with kids or boot full of spares for racing.

JP4 I believe will share more details or start a new project when collect in couple of weeks 👍

Deposit down on new race car, fun times ahead. And this is what it sounds like (same engine).

Cheers pal, it'll sell just needs right buyer👍. I went for a Westfield but missed out. It won't be road legal whatever end up with.

Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me So this happened, I'd taken down all the adverts due to timewasters but left the pistonheads one running at original price as I'm tight and I've paid for it! A few days ago contacted by someone (turned out...
