Post #143
well i thought i would write a little report on pembrey
the car drove there and back with no issues, and did about 140-160 miles on track
the car run really well, it was my first time there so took it a bit easy at the begining so i could learn the lines, the tires were not 100% as the previous track day at bedford destroyed them
but still handled really well, there was a issue breaking from 110+ where the rear was going really little and wanting to step out out so a for a few sessions i was reducing breaking to the rear, until i finally got it balanced
the breaks were fantastic as ever, though ui have put my brake servo back on as the pivot point needs adjusting on my bias box, though if i'm honest i prefer the servo as it's easier..lol
i had forgotten to put a breather tank on, so half way through the day i put a plastic bottle on, did a session and popped the bonnet to find oil everywhere
then realised it must have been pressuring up and blowing out, as i had also forgotten to put a jubilee clip on a breather pipe
removed the bottle completely, problem solved. putting holes in the bottle would have sorted but decied to just remove it.
the bonnet is now pefect, slight wobble but nothing to worry about, so really happy with my last minute Fibre glassing
lucky for my i took a spay passenger side wheel with a worn r888 on , i used this for a the last 2 hours of the day, as the N/S/F was dead
so a new set of r888's is needed
the new rear anti roll bar seemed to be doing its job and helped the car handle much better
water temp all day never went on 80 while on track, which i though was brilliant
oil temp peaked at about 117 when i was really on it, so all fine there too
think thats it really, no drama's
and finally here is a little vid that was taken from the banking, thats flat in 4th breaking for a 80'ish MPH corner
