I push very very hard & anyone who's been to Combe will tell you that ...crashing and breakdown it' not a worry as I could get someone local to come up & pick it up & we carry some tools & spares ..

No1 ...my car has only in the last year really come together Dan & a cheap Beaver tail would be my long turn plan ...

No2 ...why would I pay thousands for a trailer when I live 6miles from Combe & wasent going to any further tracks & that money went into the car rather than a trailer ?

No3... I've not got a car that's capable of towing a trailer ?....can't use works van & no towbar & not allowed to fit one ..

No4 ...I've build this car as a project to challenge myself through a bitter 5year battle with my ex of my two children was wth her 27years & spent thousands fighting her in court for the house I kept ...it's kept me sane even though it's stretched my patience at time .
(Yes) I've spent crazy money on a £1k car ....but Remember I didn't build it to race m8 & it somehow starting to feel like your saying it's stupid doing what I've done if I'm not going to either Race it or even travel to Asst tracks for track days & not trailer it ...or am I wrong ?????
At this moment in time I want everything fitted to it I can afford & I would rather stay at Combe fully this year & achieve that ...

No5....I work Sat nights on the railway as a second job to pay for all of this & im happy this year with staying at Combe & doing Presscott Dan ...you must get bored more easily than me or maybe your getting frustrated with your car somehow
Regards Damien

PS I don't Race (yet) .....I only have this car & our m8 Miles who's helped you out loads ...also Drives his car to Gurston Down ...now he's a proper old school hard core Racer

plot twist: he isn't called Dan

Good post this and good project, I don;t use a trailer as it's quicker for me to drive there but any further afield and it would get trailered, Mind when I was racing all round the county I hired one as it works out allot cheaper, No storage or maintenance issues either, You should try going to Knockhill, From me Oulton park is halfway.

John Cleland said something on TV the other night (Motorsport legends) about BTCC car's, most people could get in and drive one at 7/10's but only a few can take the next step to where the car feels nervous and twisty and go 10/10's

this is one of the reasons i am not renewing membership , you do what you want damien and as funds see fit mate , trackdays are not my cup of tea either but due to costs of stage rallying and not working for 18 months not able to do , as for racing circuits i feel like a goldfish , as get dizzy going round in circle over and over again , would rather do manx rally like ive done several times , but each to there own , ive most probably forgot more than certain people on here know , people take time to do write ups on projects on here , not to get negative response , as certain people on here with knowledge wich there are are a few could easly rip into certain cars , but we dont , keep up the good work damien

Thanks Guys

Anyway found a little gem in the garage today ...I got given it from a customer 12months ago but misplaced it & after a tidy up today I found it & it's a stronger & better fit than my 40amp Mitsubishi one ..

The bonus & most important thing about it ...is a one post/ single base support extra thick not two support post Alternator...
Meaning I don't have to cut one of the base lugs off

Have a look at the bottom of the picture only one really thick 8mm fixing post ....the other didn't fit so I cut off one of the lugs ....didn't look strong enough then

This fits perfect ....I believe Rallyash used one of these on his car in his project 205 thread over a year ago & that gave me the idea but never got to fitting it until today

As you can see ...it's A Densa made in Japan for Izuzu 40amp & still has a 15mm shaft so Swapped the pulley over ...Also it's off a wood chipper ...that's why black markers on it

I'm using a 150amp on the rally car. Still struggle to keep it all going when I have everything running on cold wet nights!

What this all comes down to is Damien is determined to get up Prescott hill climb faster than me at all costs!

Pete / Phil / Luke you do make me laugh

I can afford my engine until possible this time next year so weight has to go safely
I'm 6'3 & 15tone 4 pounds & leaving Bread out & having PopNoddles until Prescott

I'm finding it easy to save Weight on the car without causing real issues or cutting panels to pieces ....
Got another big big surprise for two weeks time & I don't think anybody on here's done this Yet ?
You lot just wait for this
PS no clues but it's being made Next Monday & will take about a week

I think my Girlfriends fed up with getting no attention & has started to wear new underwear

Day666 has attached the following image:

Yeah, I think I recall Martin turning a few mm off the beam tube to save some weight, but I think he also went on to run titanium bars aswell, and a few other trick looking bits in the photos I saw.

I've been toying with the idea of having a go at knocking up a custom rear suspension setup, but wasn't sure where the roll centre is with a beam like these as I wanted to try and keep it in a similar spot on my setup.

Don't start trying to ravage my savings again phil, they're a bit delicate after my supercharging nightmares!
