Bit of heal and toe may be needed

I'm now on track at Donington Park, Open Pit will see you there

Do you run 205's front and rear or just on the back? Like the idea of that, extra width=more contact area=more grip. I'm looking for some tyres after FCS so Might consider that as an option if I run the 15"s... Did want to run 14"s for the cheaper option though.

Looking forward to seeing the car in person at FCS and saying hello

205's yes not 100% decided on them. they feel to cause a lot more drag.

been back to cadwell this evening. had 90 mins to play with the car on track.

no new lap pb. potential is there for a 1:42. i simply could not get a good run without traffic. footage inside and outside to upload but not in a hurry to do so as i must catch up with work...

looking forward to donington FCS.

here is the best bits from monday


with the rear tyres scrubbing on the inner arches its a touch off the pace but looks quick all the same. will be sorted for sunday at donington.

Unreal mate. Class driving. Would of preferred to see someone give you a decent chase. Suppose the sax is just too quick ha

[sexy_gt]

here you go mate, this was the first outing on the track evening, tyres required pressure adjustment...

driver of the stripped and track prepped teg catches me on a warm up lap... i soon get warmed up

only had a single fast lap as the tyres still had road pressure in them and was 40psi when i checked them hot


love the comments from the teg driver.

It's hard to appreciate how fast it actually is until you blow past other cars lol

What camera you using btw?

[AndySAXOp]

Looks good, look forward to seeing this at donnington.

i was right about the car feeling slower on the 205 width tyres...

been rubbing on the rear arb end plates both sides



both rear tyres have the same melted inside wall



i have taken a flapdisc to the arb end plates to "slim" them

[Alanaponep]

Some bigger spacers needed??

picture I took today, got some more will upload later. Looked quick!
I'm the guy you passed leaving Donington with the hazards on in the two-tone saxo lol

[sexy_gt]

Cheers i was in the 3rd saxo that passed. I wanted to stop and help but had to keep with the other cars...

What went wrong?

[benkelsall]

If I went past 1500rpm it would cut out, so had to cruise home doing 20/30mph keeping below 1500rpm. Lucky only live in Nottingham half hour away.
