I'm not sure about putting a cage in this shell. It's had a clout and is pretty rusty. I think I will look around for another car over the winter tbh.

Rear end is now completely together. The s**t rear KWs have been binned in favour of some much better looking Koni yellows. Has to be said the KWs were bloody awful compared to these. I had a feeling they were beyond their best, then one started leaking. A lot less LOOS now!Thanks very much Mei for sorting those out  PAS ram and a handbrake cable left to do before track on the 21st. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

I think Velar still has the shell from the track car that he was breaking, that has a full cage ready to go... ________________________________________ 205 GTi Red - G939 RTU - Died!306 GTi 6 Diablo - Being resurrected!

Oh yes the KWs are Koni. I meant that the new dampers I've just fitted are probably for 205s.Very tempting to get a decent 205 gti and bung it all in. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

So did the T5D5 MRG charity trackday at Combe on Friday in support of Mission Motorsport. Was bloody brilliant! Managed 65 laps in total, staying out for 7-8 laps at a time. Probably could have done longer, but it was a warm day so was worried about oil and passengers temps.Not many things were quicker, from vids of another car I was matching at the time I was doing 1:25 laps which is cool. The 3 cars that annihilated me were all on slicks. So cheating Anyway nothing broke, it handled really well with a nicely adjustable rear end with huge grip. DS2500s and ATE Superblue were up to the job too. I think I may need to buy one more R888 as the nearside front is pretty mullered, otherwise the others have a couple of days left in them.  Quite a high attrition rate meant a lot of cement on the track, hence the dust. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
