    That's actually 10 minutes of angle, 10 degrees would look silly broken

    Glad to see this is still around and being refined!

    Thanks for the correction you're more awake than me ha ha. Hopefully some more refinements to come to make it better... Still crunching into third so dying for some gearing upgrades

    Course it has electric windows are for winners.

    Yeah it's suited to that track shorter gearing would be better though. Think harvey would hammer me around a bigger track, driven his and it's a well put together beasty.

    I wish my changers into 3rd were working, darn pressure plate release fingers! Really struggled with gear changers at higher rpm on track

    Nice vids, tidy update, cleaned the engine bay yet

    I must get myself some slicks.

    Ok so a bit of roll on that Astra, but looked fairly nimble; love a chase!

    Oh yeah I forgot about the dipstick coming out and covering the engine bay in oil Not cleaned it or put a spring on that yet...

    TBH I don't think the slicks gave an advantage over your R888s or whatever that Rover was running, they may be getting a bit old

    Garage looks great, nice and big.

    From the sounds of it a Zlet pump would be a very good upgrade, I've never had any low readings since changing mine.
    Car looks like its going very very well on track and your driving looks good. Good lines and that.

    Your rear disc set up.
    Did you just fit the discs, or did you have to use the plates and crap like you do on the old disc set up? As i fancy building a new beam up and if it's less to do, i'll go C disc and hub.
    All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi
    Far from suicidal
    Still I get them tendencies
    Bringing back them memories
    That I really miss when I reminisce
