The wheel needs hearting, usually with a burner as it rotates. It can affect paint, especially if already repainted, ot it may not.

Straightening that is a 15 minute job. If you have someone local who does this, you will be fine. (Do not try hitting it with a hammer like steel wheels) Failing that, you can bring it or send it to me and it will be back with you Wednesday or Thursday. As for affecting you, it has bent down...

Donington does have, or so some would say, funny tarmac. However the principal is that your tyres only have so many "grips." If you have a maximum of 10, and you try to use all 10 in cornering, then there is nothing left for acceleration or braking. And the other way around, if you are trying to...

Got some serious understeer going on there, but good stuff, you enjoyed it. Try and be smoother on the steering input, if you "throw" it on, you shock the tyres and limit the grip.

I am told, by people with far more knowledge than me, that excess oil temps are not feature of the car and that even the race cars did not run an oil cooler.

Be aware that the Cup Race cars were on slicks and could tolerate significantly more camber that a treaded tyre. Also the tyres were not on for very long. On the plus side the cars are not desperately powerful and don't have "VTech Yo" sudden dollops of power. You are also doing sprits which...

Tell me about it!

They are off our MK3 MX-5 from the 2019 Race of Remembrance, used on the Sunday when it was dry so will have covered around 5.5 hours at race pace at Anglesea (I could be talking bollocks and have come from a Civic Cup car) plus having done some testing at Blyton and also I think used on a test...

I am not quite sure how to answer your question as having spare wheels is not overkill. It is easy to misunderstand just how much track time is potentially available on a track day. A typical race (Sprint Race) in the UK will be 20 minutes. Some are shorter at 15 minutes and the number of races...

My best price is £162 each, but if you buy 4 that will be the delivered price.

And gone already! :sunglasses:

If anyone wants to try the MRF ZTR, £10 per tyre + delivery.

The more pressure the stiffer the tyre and so the tread heats more. Lower pressure and the sidewalls flex more giving carcase heat. Everything is a variable, 8 88+

Lots of sage advice here and yes, the very vast majority of us went a bit wild when we first learned to drive. It is good advice to take speed to a race track, but as the post above this say, it is road skills that you also need as road driving is so different to the race track. I am very...

Me and a friend started Mazda on Track some 13 years ago now, but we have been any car since about 6 months after. If anyone came on the Clio day at Blyton in 2019, we ran that for you, after another TDO were found to be to grumpy! :think::sunglasses: Croft is a brilliant circuit. Everyone...

225 Conti's would be £371 a set from me and Michelin would be about £4 more each.

225 will fit absolutely fine. Loads of SP4's available in that size. Also Conti Premium Contact 5 in 215 and 225. You have to have the Conti Sport Contact 5 in those two sizes, I have never seen the 6 listed on the Conti ordering system yet. In my experience however there is not a great deal of...
