hey all! what a quality day that was then. u took some wicked pics m8. a couple it looks like the rear suspension has collapsed on mine. trying to get power down. lol. was kool to meet everyone. as me and tony were discussing whilst hanging round the top bend. we couldn't think of a better way to spend a Ԛ£25 on a sunday mornin. well other than the Ԛ£30 fuel i used on the track alone. was averaging 7.1 on the obc! definatly worth every penny. we have to do this again. good to see familier faces and meet new ones. the best bit for me was the smiles from the passenger seat i was getting. considering i'd changed the engine and it had only done 12miles when i fired it up that mornin, it it held together well really. bit of an extensive roadtest!
saying that i had a bit of diff issue yesterday.
it did well tho. it was the one off the h26 so was 18yrs old had done 181000 and had a hard life so can't complain really! anyone who went in it round the track will vouch that most of the time it was spinning that both rear wheels were lit! no mean feat for an open diff and a lot of stress going through those 2 planet gears! at least it happened the next day and not on the track! i've put the 320 diff in it to get it mobile again which is 4.10. and thought it was low geared before with the 3.61!!
this is 5th gear which it also pulls away in now quite happily
time for an 3.25 slipper i think!
but overall for my first ever trackday i loved it! what did i learn?
i need to uprate my pads as oe ain't hacking it!
i need to empty my boot!! bootcam would have been interestin but broken
e30 owners are the soundest bunch of people to spend the day with!!
