No such thing as a silly question. Yes. It’s just tacked together for now.

Now comes the fun task of painting it whilst it’s in the car….

Just had some photos through from Tom at Parkin race developments of cage progress.

Cage time!

Have you changed the rear pad to something different than usual?

Got the message yesterday. I am dropping the car for the cage Thursday evening!

So just thought I would do a quick update here. There no real work been done on the car since the track day other than stripping the interior and waiting for the cage. The car is going off this weekend for said cage (touch wood). I will get a geo set up done on the car after the cage is in...

That is very true! It’s not that difficult it’s just tedious and stinks. You could do it in an afternoon if the cars stripped.

So this weekend, I discovered a new job I hate doing on cars. Removing sound deadening. Thankfully a heat gun and scraper has been enough to get this removed So as can be safely assumed from the above photo, I have been stripping the interior of the car ready for a cage to go in. Nothing...

Amazing progress and write up

02/03/2024 - Blyton Park Reyt then, last Saturday played host to my first track day of the year at Blyton Park. I quite like Blyton as a track. I know it is not the best or most glamorous track there is in the world but i still find myself being drawn to it, like a moth to a flame. I think...
