trailer was well looked after today lol, car looked good too!

Cheers mate. Glad it was of service to you as well lol. Just waiting for Muzzizle to send some pics through and get the ones off the missus phone that she took. I'll get as many as I can up. Going to see if I can recover the video I did as my phone crashed half way through and didn't save it properly.

Here's a few of my photo's from the weekend. Cheers to everyone I had a natter to over the day. It was good to put some names to faces as well as meet up with people I already know.

Track car behaved pretty much as expected on the track. Bit squirly at the back end so I need to check the Bias valve. Few clunks, bangs and rattles that I need to investigate and rectify but overall, a really good experience. I think I might even be tempted to get an evening session there soon to have a bit of practice on Craner curves, through old hairpin and into McLeans!! I think once I nail that section I'd love that track. LOVED the foggarty esses... Bounced from one side to the other then plant your foot for full power up the pit straight!

Sod it.... Going to book an evening session soon and have some fun!!

Any way....

Pickies!

Here you go... Some are mine, some are pinched

And I HAD to do a bit of shopping

MuZiZZle · 19th June 2012, 18:46

Thief!

Alanapone^p · 19th June 2012, 19:14

Lol.

Cheers for the photos dude. Going to have a bit of a play with a few and see if I can tweek them a little bit.

AlexB^p · 19th June 2012, 20:02

LOL at me standing with my hot dog haha!

car looked good man and was nice to catch up

Alanapone^p · 19th June 2012, 20:18

Yeah, glad I was in the seat and struggle to get out quick or I'd have nabbed a bite lol. Still needs a bit of work on it BUT I'm developing a little list of parts to sort the handling a little more. Think I'm going to see about a couple of "taster" or evening sessions over the next few months to get used to the car and sort any issues.

Yours looked WELL nice. I saw the pictures with the Kam stickers on earlier, looks pretty good! You going to keep them on or not?

Lol.

Had a bit of a tinker with the car earlier. Took the grille and lights out ready to strip and repaint them and remove the inner lights for air feeds. Also took a few minutes to fit my show plates

Look pretty good don't you think?

Needs a good wash and machine polish next I think.

Want more track time! Need a job that pays more I think. This one used to be good but it's gone to shit now.

Either that or I'll have to sell a few more bits.

Might see if I can get a bit of a quick wash done today, also, could do with sorting the boot hatch loom out to get rid of the corroded connectors.

Also sorted with my mate last night to get the blue shell moved and all the parts I have left shifted up to the scrapie next weekend. Hopefully that should see me a few quid better off then the VTR manifold and 283mm brake set are going to go on eBay so that might bring in a few more quid. Once that's done and the money is in, I need to get a passenger harness and a manifold. I need to then look at the wheels and tyres and figure out what I'm going to run and get some decent tyres sorted.

Then, more track time... I hope.

MuZiZZle · 24th June 2012, 15:46

3 or 4 point dude?

I have a red sabelt 3 point kicking about

Alanapone^p · 24th June 2012, 16:07

3 point clip in ideally.

Just got the boot hatch wiring loom replaced and some LED lamps fitted to the reg plate and high level brake lights. Also, managed to use one of my batteries from work to start the car... well chuffed as they look to be the same as the race type battery's.

Just nipped in to give my Morette covers a wash to find the missus is baking some cookies so, while she finishes off in the kitchen I'm going to mix some araldite and give the crack in the grille some re-enforcing ready for spraying up.

Did anyone even notice that they were the wrong colour??

Might even get a few pics up in a bit.

MuZiZZle · 24th June 2012, 18:56

I noticed!

The harness is at my mums

I'll get a pic ASAP
