Hi Si, its all sorted now. Batted it around Snetterton and TOTB handling track with no issues. New Widetrack arms from the factory and went for some Nitron shox too.

The old ones were rubbish (they looked cool) and I got all my money back from the company in the end as I had 2 sets fail. I am going to write them a letter this week asking them to stop making them before somebody gets hurt in an accident. Its just not on.

Finally getting to enjoy the car after the long rebuild!

Not sure Rich. Would like to do Donny in the Westy.

How do you book track time? Is there any left? I looked on the RSOC site for National Day but could not see any info on booking track time?

Stu,

Great news in all respects then

Hope the company heed your advice, sure they will, they have to after seeing how the last 2 sets landed up! Not as if your car is heavy on the front end

Will look forward to seeing it out and about at a track day near me soon

Remember seeing it waste me at Bedford a good couple of years back - Feb 06 these were taken, I was thrashing my Pug around and admiring the scenery and then you blasted on by!









Top little motor that one

Si

Hopefully around 650KG. Would like less but its still got the pig iron engine and heavy gearbox.

To be fair, it pretty much was a different car. After my winter refresh turned into the Carbon fibre frenzy full on ground up rebuild!!!

Great seeing those pics from SiB though. Makes me realise how much its changed!!! It looks so dull in those pics. Was still fast back then though.

I should have done a rebuild/resto thread on it really.
