had a bit of a issue with the coilpack which i thought was a bit more serious but it turned out just to be the coil pack rattling round on the saab cover

still need to get my tip extended so it can take the DB reducer but hopefully i wont need that now 

 

also going to have a false bit put above the single exit to make it look more oem

One of my fast Laps from Anglesey

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

And in the 1:17s My target was a ambitious 1:18s which would of knocked 2 seconds of my best time 😜

At the Anglesey national last year there was a quick exige chasing Lee's vx (with George driving). I 'estimated' a couple of their laps in the 1:18's so 17's would have been one of the quickest (if not the) quickest car on track. Would be good to know how much was due to improvements to the driver/tyres/suspension/track conditions. More importantly how did the tyres survive? Are they good for another day?

Here is a side by side with george in Lee car v me in mine

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

Tires are good captain and hoping to get a few more track days out of them I've not really changed as a driver but did take some tips that chris gave you from your lesson And tried various line through the corkscrew Tires are still in good nick I will be putting RSRs back on soon to see how much is down to setup and how much is down to the R888Rs

Looking at your old vids I remember thinking there was nothing wrong with your driving style so the only thing making you slow at the National was clearly the car.

Confidence is certainly key I reckon, and thanks for comment

Doubt you'll get them hot to enough to appreciate them on the road.

You might be a bit surprised, as my front brake discs which are 30mm thick and 330mm wide (i.e. a much larger heat sink than OEM) are sometimes golden/coppery yellow due to heat. I've also parked up and found the fronts smoking a bit on a few occasions. This is only since my upgrade to RC6 pads after my brake conversion project though.
