Sorry, that was for the side repeaters. My headlight indicators are silvervisions.

 

[Pistachio]

@Pistachio They are just standard ones. In fact, one broke so I bought these pair from euro car parts which are a direct replacement in design and colour.

The indicator bulbs in your headlights? They look chrome or something

Ahh cool. Thanks

First time I’ve cleaned the RB in a few weeks, still scrubs up well for a quick wash!

[Pistachio]

Just a quick one when I stopped

Castle Combe on Saturday 28th July. My car on twitter .....

[imprezaworks]

Not the best pics in the world. Ment to stop and take some better ones

 

[GrahamV182]

Got the car out of the garage this morning to wash off the grime from my last trip to Castle Combe -

Really please with the Interstate Race DNRT tyres ….. If you want some cheap road-legal, track tyres or List 1B competition tyres then you could do a lot worse than these. Interstate has gone bust so they are being sold off at a discounted price. 4 tyres at £259 inc delivery - on flea bay.

Next event - Bristol Pegasus Track Day at Castle Combe on the 18th August.

 

[imprezaworks]

Really tidy

 

[Jekyll]

@GrahamV182 Your car always looks so clean! Also your pictures always look so sharp.

Double likes!

@Dr Jekyll is that oil underneath it ?!?!?!

 

[Jekyll]

It is, but not all from mine.

It was there before but my gearbox does leak a tad. Selector seal but I need to remove the box to fix it, which can wait.

So it looks worse than it is.

 

[sam55]

Last day on black wheels. They'll be silver by this time next week ?

 

[imprezaworks]

Sheeepppp

 

[Jekyll]

Sam, what size plate is that front one? Height wise.

It's a 520mm x 90mm one

A couple of up to date ones of mines. Adore this wee car, goes very well for what it is only just now getting the hang of it all working together.

Did 120+ miles around Donny and the trip down and back (800miles)

Also did a soaking wet evening at Knockhill, again faultless. I should really do a bit of a build thread.

 

[Djw Dave]

Not sure why it's posted the pics twice ?

They are worth seeing twice ........

Thanks very much. I do plan to give it a going over with the PC before it gets tucked away for winter at the end of September.

 

[Jekyll]

One I took the day before I stripped it. Starting to miss it now!

 

[Pistachio]

Couple of clean pics ?

 

[The Beardo]

My daily and project racecar. Both will be up for sale in the new year ?

Couple of snaps of my car at Wiscombe Hillclimb - courtesy of Howie Fowler on facebook:

 

[Jekyll]

3 wheelin' ?

 

[GrahamV182]

Two more snaps from Howie Fowler …… thanks.

These are both just after Bunny's Leap at Wiscombe Park. Its one of the more technical features at Wiscombe as the car goes light over Bunny's - just as you are trying to turn ? Even with rock-hard suspension you can see from these two photos that the weight moves from the drivers side to the passenger's side as you go through the kink after Bunny's.

Very easy place to either clip the barrier or go on the grass - neither option is very sensible at 70+ mph

 

[Jekyll]

The shots are amazing!

 

[Coops Mk1]

Car looks very planted tbh, what setup is it on?

Car looks very planted tbh, what setup is it on?

Not a very sophisticated set up: Gaz coilovers ..... The cheap ones not the 'Gold' version. I can't see any brand on the springs or the actual spring rates.... All I know is they are quite harsh on the road but seem very good for track / sprint / hillclimb. Camber bolts on the front to give me some negative camber which certainly helps 'turn in' on sharp hillclimb corners.

Tyres are Interstate Race DNRT in soft compound (80 wear rate)..... road legal and very impressive tyres for the money. 28 psi on the front and 26 psi on the rear.

 

[Djw Dave]

One from the local ice cream place the other week, I do enjoy puttering about in it with the wee man at the weeekends.

One from the PFC magazine from the French Car show coverage. I did hear they were only taking pics of the really fast cars, but this is unconfirmed ?.

I assume they are warm temps?

Quoted for the lies

 

[Coops Mk1]

Couple of snaps from Cadwell yesterday, had a good day and impressed with the car for basically standard (ish) and many many miles. Performed faultlessly!

 

[imprezaworks]

Looks spot on

 

[Jekyll]

Looks great!
