Finally back on it's wheels, sadly they don't have enough offset and they rub the arches.

These are on the way:

I've converted to a hydraulic handbrake too:

Just need to do a few minor jobs and it will be ready for alignment and corner weighting ahead of a January trackday.

Was pretty good, first time I'd been there since 2011 so I wasn't particularly fast. The suspension was way too hard for the bumps/jumps/kerbs of the 'Ring but after I tweaked it a bit it was just about ok.

I uploaded a video of 1.5 laps, the go pro ran out of juice half way through the clearer lap.
