maybe it's worth looking for a car other than a polo. There clearly not made for going fast round circuits

Ouch! At what point during the day did that happen? Did you get much track time in?

Couldn't get third all day, to be honest this box has been poor from the start, eventually went after 3 runs I think.

Neil, if that's an invitation to buy a TT and join your 'club' then you're alright thanks.

:-D

Dont dis my aerobatics moon face!

People should appreciate this more learning so much about the limits of standard components haha

The engine bay is basically a giant, expensive, mechanical game of The Weakest Link.

Haha true that! It's good fun, like when a rod broke, take it on the chin, it's like double standard power something's gonna give,at least Pete understands that! :)

Wow Pete! There's no stopping you! Last time I checked the engine had shit itself and now your taking around trackdays... Fair play bud

I guess it helps being able to fix it though - the last couple of months would've bankrupted a numpty like me with next to no mechanical knowledge. Would've still been sat on the drive after the engine detonation.

Wow what an awesome build, realy inspires me to complete my little GT build! Just quick question, but where did you get replacement valves when you buckled them? I've nackered 2 in my GT

Some pics from the day:

Looks the absolute bollocks .

looks bloody epic when in action!!!

Must be carrying some corner speed there to compress your really soft springs so much mate! Looking good

Any videos from the day pete?

A vid and some pics from the other week. Think this was my quickest run, but still missed 3rd twice.

Tow Car & Track Car:

Will upload a vid from inside the car tomorrow, can see how much it pulls around when accelerating.

Currently in the process of buying a house (with double garage ;D) So not sure how much progress will be made this year.

Looks sooooo good man!

When i saw this at poloshow... i absolutely loved the bonnet. When i saw you were painting it i was like naahhh, ruining a carbon bonnet.. But now, yeah, fucking cool. It just looks like a standard bonnet, get up close and you can see the weave through the paint.

Any word on the group buy you were talking of for C/F and F/G stuff on ClubG40? I keep checking on there :)

Some incredible work gone in there! Stunned!

Inside Vid:

is that the whole track? wuuuuuut.
