Monaco 172 Track Car

[Mr Squashie]

Christ. I just noticed a bird has shat on my car last night and I'm honestly not sure if I'll make it to a car wash by next Friday 🧐

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

It's looking good mate. Will go mega at blyton

 

[Clio_fool]

Disc/pad alignment looks much better now Kyle, told ya the calipers weren't right. I'm looking forward to a few passenger laps in it at Blyton, especially as I'm now living the soft life in a mk3 😂.

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

Cheers lads

Aye everyone's welcome to passenger laps. Proper fallen in love with the car all over again now, rev match downshifts feel way easier with the flywheel🤣 might invest in some heel and toe pedals because I keep missing the pedal with my heel

 

[Louis]

I'm sad because the pms positioning is better than my own 😥

 

[Brigsy]

Big old list that! Will go well on track with the roll correction kit and lsd

 

[Djw John]

Good effort there lad.

Just FYI you know how you carry a roll of gaffa tape with you at all times? Chuck some over the fog light ducts when you go out to bed them in.

Yeah I was gonna tape them but then it leaves f**king residue. I've got a set of bungs on the way I can slap in

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

Can't get as much firewood in now with the cage. Don't want to scratch it👀🤣🤣

 

[Mr Squashie]

What a small world. Just talking to a guy at work while I loaded his van and mentioned I had a Clio, he told me his son is really into Clios as well. Said he was over a mates house at the weekend helping him fit a shifter... 🧐

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

@Louis your dad is a baller

Was he complaining about his calf aswell? 😂

Probably was my dad if you're local? Delivering chemicals?

That's how we started talking about cars. He was telling me he sells a lot of stuff on eBay, I told him I buy a lot of stuff on eBay, mainly for the car 😂

Did he try sell you an MX5?

 

[Mr Squashie]

No, but I'm glad he didn't as I've already got one turning to rust on the driveway 🤦

 

[Flat Eric]

Great updates Kyle. Look forward to seeing it soon.
I still need to sort a passenger pass out

 

[Louis]

Loves a chat does my dad

This, as soon as I swapped to a TTV flywheel rev matching was spot on. You're going to love it on track

Loving the build, looking forward to seeing how she fairs!

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

Gave it a wash, had copper grease in parts

Got a new phone so tested the camera, seems decent

Then did some really important mods

This was by far the most crucial to get it ready for CSF

 

[Slowpoke Rodriguez]

You jot cleaning the wheels?

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

You jot cleaning the wheels?

I have tried acid, it just doesn't budge 😂

Suppose that's what you get buying £200 wheels 👀

 

[Mr Trailer Man]

You jot cleaning the wheels?

I think they're done 😂

Speaking from experience as someone who has the same wheels in white for track. They look good until you get to the first braking zone 😅

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

Also, the gearbox is weeping ever so slightly so there is a slight film of oil over my nice clean s**t 😂

The box that has just gone back in 😂

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

Yeah I think the end cap is weeping ever so slightly. f**k dropping £80 worth of oil for that though

Too right, it's like gold that stuff 😂

Get the brick acid out lad

What acid you using? I used to run white team dynamics back in about 1998. Absolute pride and joy they were. Wanker to keep clean. Need some proper lethal shot to get them clean. I’ll be expecting more of an update effort for the weekend Kyle. You big gay bear

 

[Mr Squashie]

*notices ur buldge* OwO what's this...?

 

[Speedo Gonzales]

I've used KKD acid on them, it gets a bit off but not enough clearly. It's not normal brake dust, it's a mixture of DS1.11 and CLRC6 so it's f**king baked on really hard🤣

Did you try hitting it with your handbag?

 

[Clio_fool]

Just leave them as is. They'll never look good anyway.

Looking good @Yorkshire Pudding

Car looks good too.
