Not long back from Donington, What a track! such a fast track and with the ZZR's working great i was able to go down Craners flat in 4th at 80+mph.

Brakes went at the end think i've boiled the fluid as its a long peddle now.

best lap was a 1:40

Also did a eco run up the motorway. Filled it up at Penrith and drove back home to the nearest shell garage, Triple checked the figures and they works out right!

First time out at knockhill with the new engine set up. Really love the power the car has now and the ZZR tyres are fantastic.

 

Skoda really have built this car well with the amount of kerb abuse it took 

 

Needs new pads and has given me a few other ideas going forward.

 

Both @hutchysrs50 and ADE Tuning really have built a fantastic engine and car and the continued support of Funk Motorsport has been great.

Comparing to Friend's Focus Race Car

 

The Fabia into Duffus braked 13m later, Into scotsman was .14mph faster, Braked 9m later into Clark and 33m later into the Hairpin.

 

Although to be fair he was carrying 30mph more into the corners

Did the next round of the Scottish Road Car Series yesterday. First time out with the new turbo set up. Weather forecast looked to be wet with rain throughout the day so decided the leave the Avons at home but it didn't rain while we were there and it dried out quickly.

 

Quickly learn that the car needs a diff too now for getting the power down all it was doing was spinning.

 

As i knew the brakes were needing replaced i wasnt expecting much from the brakes but they were still stopping it quicker than expected as you can see in the videos i stopped too short of the box a couple of times

Gauges are speed,gforce, rpm and boost

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Went to get the new brakes fitted today and think they really were finished after yesterday

 

30287368918_16f664a5e4_c.jpg

 

New Mtec discs and Brembo pads for now


30287368648_2db3a0d280_c.jpg

 

Next time out Santa Pod on the 2nd of september hopefully get some decent 1/4 mile times.

Really do love this car. Gets used on track, drag strips, sprints yet still gets 55 mpg on the way to work and 70mpg on a motorway run and used every day 

Looks like you had a fantastic day.
