The Graphics cost around 800 pounds which is a bargain. I know it sounds alot but materials is over 300. Im very happy and think the work is amazing

Car\'s looking good Sam. Couple of points about the graphics though. The Precision Drift and Rotechnics are pretty difficult to make out against the flag, but more importantly if you\'re looking at competing in BDC or similar, you\'ve left no room for the doorcard sticker.
 
And someone\'s thrown a Navy sticker on there and it makes you look as though you spend your days at or under the sea and might just be batting for the other team ;)

need to make a few adjustments to hydro as it didnt lock very well and uprate the oil cooling but other than that the car was amazing and rotechniks have built an amazing car and pdc have done a fantastic job of making it look cool

Ok bad news, didnt get my BDC licence which sucks as I pushed the car super hard!
 
I am impressed though that I drove the car from oxford to teeside, drifted it for 5 hours then drove home again and i had no niggles at all with the car. Shows what reliable motors Rotechniks builds.

Sorry for your BDC licence !  The level is still raising there ...

By the way, would you mind to take a picture from your front hubs ? I think I just have messed up mines with ackerman, even if the rod is barely touching the disc...

Thanks mate :)

Hopefully car should look a bit more awesome after this weekend/before drift day on the 27th thanks to my two new sponsors
http://www.carboncopyuk.com/
 
 
Who have provided me with a new front bumper to replace my one i attacked with a tree. This will allow me to fix it and have a spare. They have also started doing a HUGE range of aftermarket FD parts such as 25mm wider front wings and diffuser. I will be fitting the new front wings sometime this week.
 
Also as some of you may have seen my wheel ofsets havent been exactly been very flush due to me having to remove my wheel spacer as i cant get many turns on them so DM Motorsports
 
http://www.dm-motorsport.co.uk/index.asp
 
have made me some new spacers with a custom 32mm thread to make fitting easier.
 
Huge thank you to all my sponsors. your support is much appreciated
 
 
Ill be hopefully doing more of this at santa pod on the 27th
