Bought myself a little track car

[fleck]

Hi,

Been on here for a few years now but never posted, bought myself a 172 cup track car and plan to enter the tintop series towards the back end of this season or start fresh next year.

Did cadwell last week and have Donnington booked for the 27th.

Looks good, are they Williams wheels? Can I ask why do people black out the headlights on track cars? Always wondered...
Have you been a paid member since 08 and never posted? :0

 

[fleck]

No theyre not blacked out, theyre just blanks basically. It had xenons in before which unfortunately the previous owner sold to fund other bits that he bought for it. Not williams wheels, theyre an aftermarket light weight 15" with semi slicks. Also got a full set of anthracite 15's with wet tyres on.

No only just paid as a full member, i wanted to look at parts for sale...after some 4 pots for it.

lol i take it it gets abit interesting, i went to watch at donnington cpl of weeks ago and it looked very good entertainment. Shame the safety car came out and ruined the end it abit.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Yes it was,I only got about five laps in before the safety car came out.

You must have seen us then.

I should probably pm you really, am i right in assuming the hondas usually do well?

Also what would brakes would you recommend?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Don't talk to me about Hondas.
Standard brakes a fine with some decent pads.No need for 4pots etc.
