now he has, only the size of his testicles let him down  

This was some read mate, top job gives me motivation to sort my shed out! 

Had a good shake down at Blyton park last week. No track photos as there was no photographer :-(

All went well, uses alot of water/meth so may go down to 75/25 rather than 50/50. Ready for Snetterton in November.

 

 

Next project is try and get my new clocks fitted. 

Bored of going off of your current clocks are you?

Basically yer 

hopefully i can get these Polo GTi ones in and working. 

Trial fitted the clocks, car starts and runs fine. So coding works. Split down the GTi clocks, put some black silicone over the LEDs that arent needed like airbags etc whilst its apart. Mainly so in the future i can strip the wiring back and not worry about spurious lights coming on.

Dropped my fabia clocks, so now need a new housing as its cracked the screen 

 

Were you running the 1.2 dash still ? I can’t remember 

Yeah, clocks only go to 120 and cant keep up. They werent smooth, just step changes 

Polo clocks fitted, need some more work but they will do to see how well they work. 

look miles better

lol... yeah, helpfull to see how fast its going  I stopped using the RSRs because they kept going oval on me.... the NS2Rs are just as good in the dry, need some heat in them though if you have gone for the "street" meduim compound.... not as good as the RSR in the wet I think.... (mine now have 3mill on and have stopped working in the wet! lol going to put some pilot supersports on the front now, to match what i have on the back, and hopefully try to stop killingmyself everytime I touch the throttle in the wet!) 

 

Give us a little review after you try them on track on monday

Cars looking good. I used to run the Ns2r. Not a bad tyre. Found them quite slippy in greasy/wet conditions myself. But for £70 a corner there pretty damn good

Yeah ive had severaly sets of RSRs and allways been decent. Just thought id swap it up a bit.

just bought a new set of wheels too, should recieve them at Snetterton

Yeah i just keep forgetting to fit them. Wont take 2 mins as bonnet is fibre so cutting out will tke 20 seconds. 

Snetterton bound. Hope i havent forgot anything.

Fun day at Snetterton last week. Shame it was wet all morning but a good day all in all. Car didnt break again so thats a bonus. Would have liked a few more laps but the time flies especially now the nights are coming in and the day ended at 4. Few pics..

It was a good day. Your car looked quick!

shame I didn’t get a few passenger laps with you

Looks like you hada fun day. What did you think of the nankangs

Slippery in the wet, but i dodnt expect otherwise. In the dry they seemed on par with RSRs, maybe lasting a little longer. But i wasnt braking as hard as i could have, so hard to tell really. 

Wow nearly 2 years since i last updated this.. ALOT has happened. Will start to update again.
