update time, god its been a while.
truth be told with work being quiet and the weather bad i kind of left the car to fester. theres a huge crack in the windscreen and she needs bits n bobs doing so i simply couldnt be arsed so to speak.
last week I went to oulton park with our riad to let him do some shots and test out kevo's 197. so i half heartedly cleaned her and we tootled off to cheshire. ive been driving my mums car since november and the second i got back into the meg everything made sense again. i was grinning ear to ear.
go to oulton just as a mate of mine unfortunately binned his 106, due to him not using his track time he simply said... you taking the meg out naith then?
never one to turn down a session i took the car out in what can only be described as a monsoon. there was actual ankle deep pudles on the track and i hadnt set the car up and was totally unprepared. but i got a few laps in and she somehow didnt get black flagged due to her 'vocal' aspects
the ABS was throwing a hissy fit and triggering the ESP too under heavy braking making the car wobble so i came in and hooned about in kevs instead.
whilst on track or even on the way home maybe something has hit the radiator, ive lost all coolant but its not severe so i'll sort that in a few weeks when I replace the windscreen and make some changes to the front bumper.
had my mate misterc over this weekend for a clubbing sess so we decided to give the cars a good clean and tidy them up, i'm having my cage welded in at BTM within the next few weeks so i've just left it lying about. was so nice yesterday I thought sod it n fitted it. granted its gotta come out for it to be sprayed the plates and welds to be put in but its all bolted in for now and looks good.
i've carpeted it but forgot to do an interior shot when fitted, duuuur, so will tomorow
this weekend made me remember why I'm a car enthusiast, people looking and asking questions when its just a crappy renault!?!? feels so nice and makes the work worthwhile
still more things to come, yes i know i need a race seat... and loads of other things. if anyone wants to lend me the money feel free
