    Youre getting quite a bit of movement in your gear shifter when on/off throttle? What mounts are using?

    Nice vids btw!

    The wet was actually pretty fun Paul, just I prefer to lose control at high speed rather than low speed!

    Will it's on solid TAS mounts, a few pages ago in my WIP I rebuilt the gearbox because a circlip wasn't seated properly causing movement in the gear shaft and therefore shifter movement, unfortunately it appears to still do it a little bit.... Might be a job for winter to try and rebuild it again.

    I'm not a fan of the pins, but thy are a good job.

    That wet lap looks like scarey fun. I was always told if you start to spin, use really light movement on the steering to correct, dont panic and over turn it... Just a random tip i was told.

    Mine used to invert the belt when it wasn't aligned properly. Slotting the bracket allowed me go line it up properly with the standard gear.

    Alternator was from eBay and Vauxhall bracket was off genuine parts search on the net. Rosejoints and turn buckle were from McGill Motorsport.

    My Ferrodo DS3000s are getting a bit low so will probably chuck on my Mintex M1144s for the day, but apart from that it's ready to roll.

    No repairs, mods or improvements since the last trackday, it's a weird feeling.
