Racing Blue ph1 ITB : 2010 track season updates

[tomhunt85]

Very nice car, read from start to finish. Be good to see it back in use.

 

[Martin.]

Just wow. Bet it goes like a scolded cat!

 

[Jay Payne]

Incredible

It lives again Great to see it all getting sorted.

Done a few hundred miles in it since getting it back, it's running great, very fast and very loud. Waiting for Fred to drop of some parts of mine such as the splitter but when it's looking more complete I will give it a wax and put some new pic s up.
very doubtful I will get it out on track before the end of the year but looking for a trailer if any one has one they need to sell, then it should see track again next year.

Over the winter months i plan to try and tidy up the interior get the dash top flocked, i need to spend some time working on the DASH 2 display as it works but its not ideal so need to speak with Fred again and try to get some info out of Race technology. Also go to try go get both side of the heated front screen working as only the drives side works currently.

The car is running really well so keeping a eye out for a suitable trailer over the winter and then hopefully get some track time next spring.

This is amazing! Such a credit to you and so purposeful too

 

[Cub.]

Lovely car! My brother in law knows your brother from work I believe.

Small world!

 

[Apg100]

Enjoyed this. A great project.

Have you added up the costs? Or does that just scare the life out of you?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Never add it up, never.

 

[shiftspark]

Or plan ahead lol

 

[Tony Hunter]

So true.

 

[p@blo]

Great to see this again. Really lovely looking bit of kit.

looking good chap, couple of questions if poss as it looks like you have already gone down the same interior route as i am going.

1. have you added extra mounts to hold the mark 1 dash top? (rather than just using the top 3 screw holes)
2. what does your switches on your control box control? I am going to be running the stalks so that alleviates a lot of switches, but wondering what else your running.

I've not opened this thread for years and I forgot how decent this thing looks.

The dash top is just floating about in there secured by the odd screw and zip tie, it's on the top of the list to fix.
The switch he's are just fuel pump, ignition, heated windscreen, again the interior and electrics are just not finished to the proper standard the rest of it is .

And there's a few buttons that control the DASH2, up, down, select

 

[Nafoff]

thanks chap, think i will be fabricating some brackets for the top dash.
unsure on the buttons/switches yet

 

[Barron]

Reluctantly we are now looking to sell this.

If you/or somebody you know is interested, get in touch.
