Mike, its probably not what you think it is. Its just a nice little plate that holds the cable straight and in place along the front of the engine bay.

Was good day, gutted I STILL haven't been able to drive the car at full chat and on proper rubber though.

Also saw THE worse piece of driving ever on a Track day though. A Single seater held me and Tiff up for almost 2 LAPS!!!!! he just would NOT move over at all or ever even get off line!!!!

There was a ten car traffic jam behind me as well!!! AND I kept seeing him looking in his mirrors as well!!! he KNEW we were all there

Lee,
Well someone needs to make a funky throttle cable bracket, as the OE one looks terrible in a engine bay . RichPON had a one machined from a billet . Think I'll have to get a load made .

same happened at donno few weeks back, i was utterly gobsmacked just how much of a nob this bloke was being, this bellend in a caterham held me and ding up for a good lap, everytime we came to overtake he just seemed to dangerously drift back in front when we got passed him down the back straight (well outside of coppice with full commitment really lol) he gave us the finger total tosser

The guy was a proper tool, just sat there infront of us all the way round, until Lee unleashed hell on him down the back straight

Hurricane Manning was on one then
