What's Space Innovation Racing....?


Space Innovation is my main sponsor Jimmy; like Team DCS was Joe's.

Big day today on the car.

Rally came over and worked his peanuts off today and changed my fuel lines over to braided hose and changed the route so it is now nowhere near the charger pulley. Not content with bringing all the bits to do the job, he even made bespoke brackets to mount bits.

Cracking job and I am over the moon with the outcome. Massive big up to Rally. Thanks Michael, much appreciated.

What else went on today...

Fitted uprated toe links.
Fitted new (red) bonnet, thanks Joe.
Fitted a solid air pipe for the air filter.
Adjusted the handbrake.
Fitted the full set of Vibra Technic engine mounts.
Oil Change.

Remap is on Thursday so will update results when I have them.

Just a few bits left to do now;

Graphics
Wheel arch liner inserts
Bloody good clean and hoover out
Reset rear toe

Sounds like you're almost there then and so far in advance of the first round too. Well done. Are you doing the MLR trackday the Friday before out of interest? Anyway, see you there................hopefully. My car is still missing most of its wiring, engine, gearbox, interior and bodywork etc, etc. However, it will get done and we're mapping it on Monday.

Hi Jamie,

Yes we will be doing the MLY day, using it as a shakedown and the first time the car will be pushed since complete rebuild, I guess we will soon know if my torque wrench is OK.

We are mapping on Thursday and fingers are crossed for a safe one.

You have a load still to do and I thought I was cutting it fine. Good luck Sir and look forward to the 4th.
