Today was the first slice of track action the little glanza seen.


Set of at 7:30 this morning for Curborough sprint track with a couple of friend and their kit cars.


To be honest was pleased with how it held up of the damp track and, putting the power down was pretty hard, but once the other cars had made a dry patch it as fairly easy to chuck it into the corners. Learnt a fair bit about what's needed to improve the handling today and top of the list is rear anti roll bar and lsd gearbox



Have got loads of videos of the v going up load later on

Looks awesome there mate! I was at curborough a few months back! Didn't get chance to have a play though :(

Gutted dude, not a bad little track for. A starter. We are on about hiring the track out in the summer as its fairly cheap, if we get 10 people works out about the same as a full tank of fuel each

More stripping down today, got manifold and turbo etc of this morning, looks like I had a leak out the high pressure side oil feed for the td04 and it's left a right mess so il have a right job it all up, no worries though everything will be clean when old engine has been pulled out
