    Toby's Track-Ready Daily 197

    It’s been a few months and I haven’t done much, my car has been off the road! Mostly due to lift sharing at work and the expiration of my MOT. In order to pass I had to put the original steering wheel back on and change some other bits and bobs back to standard. Anyway, now it’s passed, I’ve...

    What wheels do you have?

    I have bought OZ Ultraleggeras, with Michelin PS4s. Specs: Wheels: 8X17 ULTRALEGGERA MATT BLK 5X108 PCD ET55 Tyres: 225/45ZR17 94Y PILOT SPORT 4 XL No spacers required, fills the arches nicely, but you could put a 2mm or 5mm if you wanted to push them even further. Hope this helps :)

    Fair enough! I now have better fitting seats anyway. Unbranded but these fibreglass bad boys are strong. The guy who made them showed me one in progress and I’m mad happy. I’ll take a selfie later showing the better height. £200 - can’t go wrong surely! They suit the car but I’m sure...

    Having raced for many many years, I can safely (get it ;) ) say that harnesses are a lot safer than a standard seatbelt. With regards to HANS, I would never not wear one on a track usually, but I took my HANS and helmet and was told I wasn't allowed to wear a full face helmet on the 'Ring as...

    They're still in mint condition!!! :smile: I did put some wheel protector on them but there's not a mark on them. Thank you though! Yes, I'm pleased nothing happened in the end. Minor damage to an already damaged rear bumper is fine with me. I got away with it!!!!! I also did this :smiley...

    I can honestly say that I wasn’t pushing, just got a little wide and saved the hell out of it !!! The damage was minimal but I am aware that it could have been worse The timing was in the background and I can honestly say I didn’t look until the end of the day, and I made sure I didn’t care...

    Okay guys. Bought some ultraleggeras!!! Also came with some Michelin PS4s Then I went to the Nürburgring with the lads! Almost all went smooth. Cracked the exhaust on the 5th lap of 7 which has now totally split. But. The mud flaps are no longer. Might have slightly tapped the...

    Hi guys! Small update. I now have a better way of mounting my harnesses with an Oulton half cage! Courtesy of Foz Motorsport (Northants). Here's the cage installation: And the completed. Managed to get it in without taking the headlining out which is a plus. Had to cut a small square of...

    Fair enough! You're thinking black roof? I need to sand and touch up the callipers, then I shall add them :) I work in a vinyl shop so I'm sure it'll be fine. Just ordered some Ferodo RS2500s from Ktec, my brother recommended them too. You're absolutely right, they're ****. Nearly crashed on...

    Here’s a couple progress photos I meant to upload too! I’m sure the council won’t mind the yellow paint on the floor too much.

    Okay. Bank holiday weekend means play time! First things first, I painted my callipers yellow. Thought they’d look nicer and I was pleased with the result. They’ll need touching up in a couple weeks but that’s fine. Whilst taking the wheels off I put yellowstuff pads in. Not sure they’re...
