[richjwilliams]

Rear pads and sort geometry and its all good for oulton

Cool stuff, looking forward to seeing it go.

Wont be driving at Oulton as got to go via the rollers to remap my van the day before and will be a ballache dragging a trailer as well so just going to spectate.

Let me know what from my data logger or cameras etc you want to borrow.

 

[richjwilliams]

Thanks mate Shame your not taking a car but be good to have you there anyways

You will no doubt be out on track all day anyway as ash, nick and Adam don't have passangers, and you are always welcome in ours

If you have then with you I would quite like to try them both but totally up to you and what you remember

Today we went to sneterton what an epic little track, had a thoroughly enjoyable day with an added little bonus of sharing a garage with this car...

Josh and his mechanic are brilliant and very friendly guys showed us round the car, gave us some really good car set up advice and were great guys to share a garage with

[Detail Chris]

Just caught up your thread on the Trophy. Certainly getting treated since the days of Dave and his shed!

so how did you find the rebuilt sasch and with it being unpinned for adjustment?

 

[Jcalver]

Just had a read through from the start and am very impressed.

Just a question.........the wheels you have in the picture below.....are they off of a 205 GTI? If so, do they bolt straight on?

I have a spare set at home, and they looked like they'd fit but wasn't sure.

Cheers

Dave

 

[Daz.]

They're williams wheels!


Get out!

 

[richjwilliams]

I find them good, we plan to mess with the settings at little more soon, but at the minute they are set 15 clicks down but we have not really messed with them too much
