here's what your been waiting for some pic's...............

relocated the horns to the otherside to make room for my powersteering cooler.

and managed to fit a new tranny cooler with fan infront of the passengers side wheel.

it was a C*** of a job but took it for a test drive and no leaks, so now just gotta button up some bits and pieces and wire up the fan :)

Is that video on slow mo? Either that or you're being very cautious?

It's wet nummers....his in a 2t wagon with sort of shit tyres on a track that has not been rained on in weeks. There's a reason your kind always crash isn't there!

see me entering into turn 1 for the very first time (between the small straight and into the long straight over the hill)........ wet track pretty much no throttle just enough to keep the speed at 80km/h and see how much the car got sideways, it was slippery. even in the dry i could only take that corner at about 100km/h and the car still got squiggly.

like Criag said of course im going to be cautious first time on the track, first time on the course in my only car be it i dont use it dayly but still.

wait till i get the other vids up, this wasnt timed, but the next session that was and i got a 1:20 lap and then once it was fully dry i got a 1:15 and later in the day before it got to hot i got a 1:14 so i'm quite happy with it, it's no track car by anymeans but it was a load of FUN.

if i wanted a circuit car i'd go buy a S8 RX7 and build that up.........................
