Great result.
You ever got Christine weighed. Be great to know bhp per tonne.

Weighed it last year at a huge 1150

Thats still over 400bhp per Tonne. Loosing any more weight now i think is very improbable and expensive..
I.e carbon seat etc.

And the bonnet Matt  ???

Not sure whats going to happen on friday as I have had to put a stock diff back in.
The crush tube on the pinion had crushed and put the pinion out of line leaving the pinion to waggle up and down.

Ode to self never ever try to change the diff ever again on the trailer!!!

Clive just for information
Is the crush washer supposed to crush when you assemble the diff or not ?
Best of luck in oulton park

Unfortunately after testing at  Oulton Park today my car has developed a throttle fly by wire issue

I have decided for safety reason to pull out of tomorrows Oulton Park event because if the car cuts out again it could be a danger not only to my own car but also to other competitors cars.🥺
All the best Clive

Although I'm not racing, there will be another Mazda flying the Rotary flag in CTCRC in the shape of Mark Spence

Wow another tough break but you'll be back stronger! Disappointing for sure but safely first
