Quote from: "MrStev3"Added pembrey circuit to march so after my other halfs birthday this weekend coming I'll crack on

My second favourite track, often overlooked by drivers due it's location but it's a must.

I agree, I was hoping we'd be racing their this year, but I guess a trip to Anglesey will have to do (also a great circuit imo).

Oh yes, the run up to Rocket and the Corkscrew, brilliant.

For those who don't know what it's like

Should be good for the roadster except the high speed section on straight

Off the Brooklands Hairpin is a bit slow, but then you are flat until Honda, scrub a bit of speed and fly down to hatches.

My last outing there was in the Mirage:

How not to go flat through the kink at Woodlands (he rejoined with no damage)

The front feels a little bit tighter, I took it for a blat to Bridgend Saturday some good miles then some country lanes to see how she was and could notice a little difference but I'm sure the front strut is in need of change on the passenger side.
Next week I'll be ordering a few bits.

So pembrey is all paid for now can't wait

I've ordered two new front kyb shocks as one side needs changing and best to do it in pairs.
Plus I don't really have £640 spare for coilovers right now maybe next year.

Ordered an ultra racing lower rear brace from gt-4 play do it the easy way, cheapest price I found .

And my bushes are starting to come in the post

Nobody could match the price so hopefully the right parts turn up. I checked they were in stock before ordering so expecting them tomorrow
If the rain holds off I might be able to do some more stuff to the car

Bit of a bargain really. I think they will make a difference! Tein springs?

MrStev3

#146
Had teins on her from the beginning of my build so Ofcourse  :-) :-) :-)
Next year I'll get coilovers but with limited time til pembrey and a bust shock it was the logical thing to do.
Love this little car

Two and a bit weeks to go and I'm procrastinating   s:? :? s:?  

Need to fit lots of bits but instead I'm looking at evos and parts for the Subaru

6/10 for effort right now haha could do better.

Made the mistake if clicking on mlr by accident
