Default First time out

Hi all
Last Thursday i was invited down with the car to my local sprint course at Curborough.
A couple of friends were there to test their cars before the shenstone sprint championship starts, so with a begged trailer i managed to get my car down to give it a test drive on some private land before the IVA.

By the way a week before this i had the back end in bits, diff out because i had a slightly old and leaky propshaft seal. yes when the gearbox was first fitted it wasn't replaced lesson learnt!

The car runs and drives pretty well now the brakes are bedded in, Got sent a slightly emission unfriendly map for the omex and with that the engine pulls great! Managed to hit nearly 80mph down the straight.

All in all a good day, the only thing broken was the fibreglass seat base.

Thanks to dad for the photos

Looking really tidy, bet there is the biggest grin ever going on inside that helmet
