    my 172 track car progress thread......

    i recently bought a ph1 172 as a track project. It started as a very tidy 101,000 mile car that was perfect for everyday use......





    And then myself, Dad and a mate who races cars got hold of it....








    Next on the list, Corbeau Buckets, Harnesses, Uprated suspension, dedicated discs and pads and a Decat.

    I will keep yoou posted....

    I can't beleive the weight of the stuff that came out! The seats weigh a tonne and all the carpet and sound deadening was like dragging a corpse out!

    I'll get some pics of it during the week. with all the stuff out, its a good inch/inch and a half higher, goes to show how much weight the cars carry.
