Cheers mate! Yeah say AR1s its'd be another second a lap quicker at least for sure! Not chasing times at all tho just maximising the car!
My mate has made an edit of some exterior and paddock clips and a good session with a pedal cam after he threw a couple of Go Pros in my car (i only have a...
Absolutely awesome day at oulton on Saturday, the wishbones adding a little more camber really have transformed it since oulton 12months ago, got black flagged a couple of times for drifting and track limits at old hall but the guys were cool. Managing 2.04/5s which is oly 2 seconds slower than...
Been a while... done cadwell park last wednesday first trackday of the year, considering the weather was forecast torrential rain it never really properly came until dinnertime so inbetween afew showers i managed say 2 90%dry sessions, went home at dinner but still managed 110miles on track in...
The 50x25mm 3mm thick box section underneath which has been overly welded is taking all the strength, them tabs ontop are just for added bracing which again has been welded to the max, they haven't moved or bent flexed in 500 or so spirited miles since fitting them.
little update, bought some new lower arms and extended them 8mm to give it some much needed camber, turns is so so much better now -

I'm game for either of them tracks and a handful of others i know I'm sure would be too!
I forgotten to check the scales but i guess it's around 1100 with little fuel in
Oulton park was epic on saturday, one of the best trackdays i've done there, hardly any red flags and all 6 of us never had any probles, i just had to change y pads at dinner as i think i have a sticky rear calpier as only one od the rear pads was metal on metal, yellow stuffs fitted expecting...
It's suffers abit from understeer as i haven't attended to the lack of negative camber on the front yet (nothing's adjustable) even though it's really low it only has around -1 camber and without having a diff which I was used too for 5 years in the DC2 (and -3 front camber) it feels abit crap...
Thanks haha, i did fall incredibly lucky finding them prefect size, width, centre bore and offset only down the road from me too, want a set of 17'' hockeneins too to replace the 16'' team dynamics next!
Brakes wernt the best at cadwell in the summer so made some cold air feeds, cant get the...
So the Exhaust is awesome exactly what i was expecting, if you live in the Northwest and want a custom exhaust, manifolds, downpipes etc take it to Pipewerx! So old one removed -

I'm sticking with the stock 'DE as it's too good to bin, it's had the headbuilt with genuine parts, hasnt used a drop of oil since servicing it 1200miles ago with the Cadwell trackday inbetween so it's reliable, I can't turbo any car so this is staying N/A and going to be as light as It can...
