Iain's 20XE Trackday Nova

nice work Ian, had a good read from about page 50 tonight, love the work on the corsa servo/pedal set up

really should have done this on mine but cant be arsed now

vote for "by the handbrake", adjustable when driving and just looks right

Guin waddled

To overcome the water drainage issue with the Corsa servo plate I grinded down the lip:

And seam sealered it until it was flat:

So it'll hopefully drain down this side:

And stored on my garage roof to stop it getting tangled up:

What's left of my old motor, almost ready for scrapping:

nice work :thumb:

Does the old shell have the plastic seat running covers?

Will the ground off side not mean the water will just pool and sit in the front where the lip is...

Benn will talk on messenger about parts!

I've made 4 little U shaped drainage holes along the front and side so it can drain out of the tray :)

While tinkering with the Corsa setup I got paranoid about my cut-n-shut pedal so I've beefed it up with two 3mm plates either side. Bit happier with it now!

as said before iain, your skills have come along way in the time youve been building this car, nice welding, and god progress keep it...

Cheers Paul, getting stuck in there is the best way to learn!

I agree with Paul.

Those two 3mil plates look heavy
