tyres sold bump for alloys at £275

i need number 9 and number 12 please mate

3.11 and 2.95... unfortunatly you dont have any others suitable for what i need pm'd

if you dont take the lot i might need some of those, will know next week

I've booked already had to go with session V 16.00, never been on track before so booked novice. Properly excited for it, just really want to get a feel for how my car handles.

good first track, lots of run off and wide as fuck lol, can be a little boring as theres only 6 corners on national circut but great for high speed

So what sessions are everyone booking for track, if any?

im booked on 3 session: C - 09:40, I - 11:40 ,O - 13:40

although im in my MX tubby ill have cameras on the car too so get one track with me lol

rubber wheel dril bit

second that

belive there called a Caramel wheel

havnt though that to be honest... pressure is 90psi on warmup then 35 psi at 1400rpm (cant lower my idle lower than that due to stupid inlet manifold)

i did place the rocker cover on without the bolts to hold it down and oil pissed out so yea guess all ok haha

i used a genuine toyota head gasket (metal 0.5mm from a paseo) so would only fit on one way

thermostat will make no difference on track as itl be open anyway,

civic rads are shit

i found without an oil cooler it would get hot way to fast only 10mins worth of track use. with an oil cooler i used to get about 20mins before exceding 110deg water temp

that was with over 300bhp though.

ive scince gone full face radiator infront of the slam planel and all customer bits etc.

for track use heat control is a big factor, my mx5 has 273bhp, big rad an thermostatic oil cooler (13row) and i can stay on track for as long as i want (45mins ish is my currect record without pitting lol) before the rad and cooler again 15min sessions where the max

yes but there is a difference the 5e headgasket blocks off some of the waterways to the head., ive not had a issue, im using a 0.5mm metal gasket on a forged 5e build

sorry i cant find my own photos but quick google shows what i mean (ignore the 3ee 5ee labels) mean
