Not too sure, but it might be sun glare? certainly not a timing device, my gear is not that sophisticated

The clips of your red ecos are not that long, as your a tad quicker then me and thus you keep dissapearing off into the distance

just uploading the clip to youtube atm.....

I dont seem to have any of the engine bay with the TB's fitted! They have not been on there long, must get some done asap

only one I can find



I'm about to swap out the bike bodies as the linkage is not good. Spacing them out to match my engine has made the linkage weak and out of sync. It really need the cable to operate in the middle rather then at one end.

So I have recently sourced some DCOE bodies and have converted them to TB's. This way I have a nice throttle linkage care of Sytec and much much better throttle feel and response, aswel as access to a range of ram pipes and filter options

Sorry Dave, no XR2

Looks like we were not on track at the same time, I guess Brands was not big enough for 2 awsome cars lol

Got a clip of the grey Erst though

I hope the white 3 door was foot to the floor down the pit straight, as that would make me very happy
