Im up for G.karting mate and all for charity but fuck me 4hrs!!!

Can we not do a warm up day first, my plimsoles need washing!

 

Nice turbo there luke Any more carbon plans

 

yer but there is 6 drivers

 

Carbon plans are in the pipeline too mate, need to get it running again though before that comes into the equation though. Hows the track beast?

Really really want to mate, appreciate the thought of the invite too.
Jimbo is pushing me too I really cant though this weekend I MUST get on with the Fiesta as time is flying + ive arranged for people to come round and sort things on S1.

If we can get all the peeps to agree that Jimbo said then im sure we can set a date in stone soon for us all. Afterall Winter is boring as shit and its only just starting.

 

Decided to change the interior door panels and finish them off as the carbon card does not follow the curve of the door and ends to leave a gap between window and card.

I have trimmed a standard door card down and removed the material to fill in this area

These will then be flocked this week by Raj @ AUTOFLOCK and then fitted to finish off the interior door panels, as i was not happy with them.




These once flocked will fit on the top of the door

 

That should look spot on with the combination of the main carbon panel and then trimmed off with the flocked bit at the top.

Looking forward to seeing how that comes out.

As always it looks like you have just the right blend of practical in terms of a lightweight trackday car and still being cosmetically pleasing

 

still unsure about this...so we will just have to wait and see when its done!

 

Agreed. The way you make that special blend of practical, lightweight and cosmeticly erotic is amazing.

Just like your choice of footwear makes the most of your slender feet.



Crack on chap!

 

AFPMSL

 

It WILL work otherwise I would not have thought of doing it.





Slendersoles FTW!

 

Dude what are those posh charity slippers you keep goin on about?

 

TOMS mate FTW!!!!

I have to say its so rewarding knowing I have done the GOK Fashion Fix and there is a young child running around in Africa looking as funky as me!

 

but you could be wrong...!!!

dont even get him started!

funky as you!? who describes themselves as funky!?

 

Luca, the one of a kind, funky fresh, funked up style reject

Now play that funky music white boy

 

Gotta be in the teen stage at the mo..... (loves ya Luke xxx )

 

COCHYN - Prrrrrrrrrck!!!!

In the words of Sir Cartman!

People with red hair, freckles, and pale skin - are disgusting and are inherently evil, have no souls, and are unable to walk around during the day because of this...
Least the clocks have changed you get an extra hour of outdoor play!

Love you back???
mmmm only if you send me a high res image of your FRS parked next to mine at Santa Pod on Central Day.

 

Now you see, that's just not thinking out of the box for genuine insults is it...I mean, I had a picture and everyfin And how dare you say I'm evil.... But harsh that boyo, harsh

Yeah sure, will email them to you in a bit

 

That is most defo NOT Dear Lukedora as he was stood right next to me when we saw actual Side show bob @ Snetterton

 

PMSL - that is so true aswell! ah i wish someone had taken a picture!

 

I'll believe it when i see a pic

 

My friends just done this with his Swift, the flocked/carbon door cards, looks wicked.

 

Received a mail from Raj @ AUTOFLOCK last night saying he had received the door cards and that he had already started them!!!

However slight issue in that where the card had cracked and split in places and my poor attempt at resurrecting , would need to be rectified.

The areas in question have been repaired and will shortly be coated ready for flocking.

TOP JOB Raj – Many thanks for your patience and time.








I wont show the Blue Peter style repair I made previous to this

 

Was it duct tape?

 

Chewing gum and straw would have been closer to the truth.

any recent news on this project luke?

 

Update?

 

Any updates Mr charity slipper

 

No mega update as yet im afraid on the new build.
Car is at JKM awaiting the fabricaton of the exhaust manifold / external wastegate and the longest ever list of other jobs.

HOWEVER nothing shy of a miracle arrived today which lifted my spirits.
RAJ from AUTOFLOCK sorted the cards in between moving to a larger unit...

Now I have had some parts flocked in the past by 2 seperate companies and nothing comes anywhere near as good a finish as this from AUTOFLOCK Will be most certainly using again and also have some plans for carbon front end.

Pictures dont really show the quality but No bald patches and a real smooth even coverage and perfect along all edges.
Cant wait to get them fitted on the doors.

 

Nice one my friend

I may have to copy that idea if you dont mind

 

nice idea mate. always look at yours for ideas.

 

Roaylties made payable to the "slipper foundation"

Go for it mate hopefully it should work the same for your doors.

 

Nice work

 

some kind words there Luke, was a pleasure to contribute to such an influencial project!!! Keep up the good work. One thing to say though, I think a carbon aero pack is on the card

speak at the weekend mate

 

this is my favourite rs turbo of all time i love this car!!! so much effort has gone into this its unreal!!!

i would love to own one of these one day
