I want to replace the gearknob on my Cup.
I've searched but can't find a supplier. Do you have any ideas where I can source one?
At the moment I'm at the 'might try and repaint a silver one' stage :oops:
Dave Mac Propshafts.
Was in there yesterday collecting gearboxes and we had a chat about these straight cut gear kits.
It was a project from a few years ago that got put on the back burner, but they've finished the drawings they needed to refine the kit for production and I'm hoping they'll...
I think so - It's Ashley Davies driving it. It makes good power.
He's a great driver - went on to finish 6th overall and win Class B!
Our Sliver s**t looks a little sorry for itself.
We did finish 3rd overall with a 2nd in class the day before, still frustrating as I'd been punted out of P3 on the 3rd lap and we had to work back up from P16.
Onwards and upwards. Sigh.

Behold! Our Class B http://www.explodingfistclio.com Clio 172 Cup getting smashed off under braking at Clearways.
Really pissed off, we got hit twice on both races of the weekend, car is bent and looking sorry for itself and we...
Quick update.
Snetterton Team Trophy - blew a gearbox, missed race.
Cadwell Team and Trackday Trophy - electrical fault in qualifying, missed both races.
Got very fed up, on the verge of chopping the car up but decided to give it one last chance. Booked someone else's track day at Donington...
Cheers Lee - we had a great time. It'd be good to see you on the grid ;)
We're OK for lights - kept ours at the time and we've about 3 Clios in close proximity we can nick stuff off. The owners of said cars don't know this yet. Shhhhhh!
Nope - we left the wiring there just in case.
Can't do Oulton on 6th October, I've a track day over at the Ring on the 8th and need a couple of days prep. Doh!
Indeed! Looking for other series to dip in and out of, we can't seem to find meetings that don't clash with work calendars.
Any suggestions where we could run and not be out of our depth?
Before the buzz of the weekend subsides, absorbed into the normality of the everyday, I’m committing my recollection of the weekend to writing, mainly for posterity, but also to acknowledge the effort made by the people involved in the ExplodingFist Racing project.
With the Team Trophy entries...
Well, that was interesting.
Apart from a slight technical mishap (sorry about that) the car showed potential.
Nice to meet Iceman (signed you on) and it looked as though there were a few others there planning to enter the Trackday Trophy next year!
Next plan is to change to studs, then see if...
