Who's upto what on track this year ?

Provided my car is ready (engine upgrades ), I'll be at Oulton Park 31st May and RSOC National Day at Donington 26th August.
Plus several others all being well.

I'm hoping to do a few this year if my cars back together

Caddyshack

Mine will be out when I finally get it back together, I never planned to take it on track but now with the full cage I will not be worried about cracking the paint on the bodywork where kevlar and fibreglass meet steel.

Was at combe on 6th April in my sierra , 1st time car has been on track and my 1st time at combe so just taking it steady and bit of a shakedown for the car .

Need more oil cooling and stiffer suspension springs , possibly brake ducting .

Other than that car was brilliant .

Will be out again after the revisions are done . Should be awesome then .

I hopefully will manage to avoid a repeat of this !!

Forgot this was here !

Been out at Combe 5 times now , fettling car as we go and my driving and going quicker each time .

Last time , although not yet using 100% of the car's potential we are getting closer and learning more every time .
Now in the low 1:14's aiming for 12's

Need to improve water and oil and engine bay cooling - easy , cut up bonnet
Better ducting to front and rear brakes - easy .
Big wing the sump for more capacity - straightforward .
Understand why tyres are wearing oddly (235/45/17 front and 255/40/17 rear both Nankang AR1)

Bring on 2020

Your car looks to go well.

Cheers , learning all the time !
Last time out , was nice following a Caterham 620r for a few laps with a nippy driver . Couldn’t quite keep up and then outbraked myself into the esses and lost him .
Amazing late braking and awesome turn in on those .
You still getting out in yours on track ?

looks quick matt


do you have a roll cage fitted?

mattxr3i

Nice lap times Matt. You must be tempted to put the standard bumper on the front so that no-one suspects it isn't anything but standard

T4T

No , no roll cage James - still got all the interior . Although track biased chassis , tis a little heavy at almost 1400 kg !

Hi Matt , if one day I can afford to race it , std bumper may have to go on for
“silhouette” reasons .

Only got out at RSOC National Day Donington last year and broke the engine towards the end of the day 😕
Haven't brought myself to pull the engine apart yet as I've been busy with another project.
