Epic day, Team Shonky Vauxhall are the best.

Really amazing the diference between trackdays at UK and here...
Please elaborate?!Originally Posted by zeifer33
You know I love your tripod <3
the most nearby circuit to me is only an 1h by car, ok, and we have 1 maybe 2 event per year, and the event day is easy find 80/100 cars. Well, 80/100 furious monkeys burning wheels jajajajja.
When I see these track vids, seems like race heaven, jajajaja
^^^^ Rubbish!! Atleast UK trackdays have some sort of order!!
So why do I always blow inner CV joints on the passenger side?
First off wind down the spring platform so I can achieve 'compressed state' position of the left suspension:
Jack it up (using one of my old destroyed pistons) to simulate bump or hard braking squat, check the shaft angle:
Inner CV replaced with a brand new greaseless one, it doesn't *look* that bad on the face of it:
But measuring where the ball sat at the bottom showed it was quite far in on the inner race:
Mock up spare ball bearing to show where the measurement means it sits:
Which explains why it munches itself with damage like this (this one's from Mallory)
I'm investigating a 10mm longer shaft, which I can hopefully have in prior to the next trackday...
I'll be at PV show tomorrow if anyone wants to come over and say hello.
