I had a few exits in 3rd and it felt mega slow, 2nd feels the best for the exit of Nelson. With the 3rd/4th gear through bumbhole, I found 4th feels like it has more grip but again, it's all down to preference.

That's a 5 second penalty for track limit abuse right there. Jonathan Palmer will be in touch with a bill for the grounds repair!

Oh not you Gav, you were going well all day. I meant Ethan with his fancy 2:17 last year! I've not seen anything come up, I think you need to put my email in again to share it like you did before? I'll have another look.

I'm glad it wasn't just me that was slower on the day too. At the beginning of the month I managed a 2:20 and yesterday I was putting in constant 2:23/24s with a couple of 2:22s. I don't know if it was me or Wes that dipped into the 21s but everyone seemed to be a few seconds off pace yesterday...

To be fair I'd actually forgotten I'd used the Fuchs Titan stuff until you mentioned it. Maybe just all the gunk working its way through? Who knows. We'll see!

Yeah I need to sort something out to come and collect it really!

I did until I realised I'd put the wrong weight in, I went back to the OEM Elf stuff. Could just be all the fancy detergents doing their job, the sun was super bright yesterday so it was hard to see what was in the oil, I think it's just a case of paranoia setting in after a bunch of F4R...

I missed this post. Chris runs a lot more camber (3.5 degrees?) plus the cup racer front end. Gave the car a well overdue clean last weekend, found out where all my brake pads have gone... Lots of contamination on the wheels, now the car is no show pony but it was getting absolutely hanging...

Not sure on that to be fair. I found mine to be mega handy last week, obviously it's not going to be as comprehensive as the Garmin but for the price, the Racebox is a great bit of kit.

Jimmy is at Snetterton with us this month, is he not? I've been looking for your sessions to pop up on Racebox but I've not seen them yet, it's been a handy tool when other people have driven the car so I can actually see their entry speeds and apex speeds compared to my own.

Funnily enough @burrellbloke I've got a set of barely used DSUNOs in the spares box that I didn't get on with either!

Only things to do to the car now is a new set of front pads. Between the 3 of us we finished them off! On to the data and laptimes... I was struggling all day to get into a good rhythm and had lost a lot of confidence on track, not sure why but I was really struggling to commit to the first...

Onto a trackday that I'd been bullied into booking. Bank holiday Monday with Opentrack at Snetterton. As per usual the car ran well all day long, got abused by myself and 2 others and using the Racebox, we were all within 2 seconds of each other which was impressive. No I haven't bought a...

Funnily enough I fitted mine today. It's only the rears that you can see the stud shoulder, on the fronts the shoulders should disappear through the disc and snug up against the hub.

One of us, one of us! Sad to see the car go Ben as I said to you but life comes first. You always know you can turn up to a trackday with a helmet and come for a blast, you'll always be welcome even if you just come and get some videos from the pit wall.

I got this photo followed by "Gunna set this on fire". Standard Renault shenanigans.

Regarding the image stabilisation on the GoPro, I run a pair of old Sessions and a Hero+LCD, none of which have IS and they're fine, you ideally need a good mount to keep it pinned to the cage properly. I bought a cheapish aluminium clamp mount off Amazon and it's spot on for trackdays.

Listen... Wes isn't gunna come to Snetterton so you'll be needing your big boy pants there!

He's a good lad, Alex. Glad to see the build continuing! When's the first outing planned?

Nah no seat delete at the time. I took the isofix bar out but that was it. Now it's just sound deadening in there that I added to keep the boot floor from rattling.
