The Twins. (And Yeti RS)

Well it used to eat 1st and 2nd so probably yes.

Although you generally use 3rd + on track I'll have more RPM now so will hold lower gear longer.

At Druids, Brands Hatch, for example you'd want 2nd to shoot out of the corner.

 

I just can't see the point in going all this way and potentially having to open it up again.

Will get hte race cars done for the 2017 season and then finish this off once the part turns up.

 

As the saying goes if you're going to do a job... do it properly!

I know, was tongue in cheek :)

It was epic around snetterton, even though it was broken, so I can only imagine how epic it's going to be

Stronger gearbox synchros arrive this week.

Once they are here gearbox can be finished and attached to engine, then engine can be fitted.

Then exhaust to check for greater power capacity and ECU/map to sort out.

 

Parts delays have mean it's taken ages.

I think it's about 10 months since the piston ring went.

Good job it's not my only car!

 

We'd all love to know that your wonderful Yeti still features in your plans for Snetterton?

Is there room to run a cold air feed from the headlight?

 

The two likely options are large letterbox collector along the whole of the top of the radiator, or from the circular fog light leaving the main headlight intact.

The second option is not really in keeping with the plan of the car looking fairly normal so will only happen if option one not good enough.
