Buy yourself a drift cam bud and bin off that go pro I've used mine all day and eve on a tunnel run and it comes with a remote you wear like a watch so there's no mad dash to turn it on and run for your helmet lol

lol yes i ve seen them been doing some research.....problem is the wife bought me the go pro as an xmas pressie and they get sentimental about things like that....Ive got the wifi fob that what went flat and the cam so charged up of usb in car (never any good). ill be more organised camera ref next time it had been in the cupboard for 7 months.

Checked the car over this morning and a quick chat with Clive got a few little jobs. Half shafts are coming out again for the bearings retaining ring to tack welded to shaft as evident bearings on the move up the shaft! (thanks Clive saving a potential disaster). evidence of a minor weep of coolant on the top rad hose. hopefully just a replace an tighten off jubilee and a steering knuckle has come slightly loose despite nylocks and threadlock...not bad after a thorough thrashing. still buzzing....

re japi

Does your right arm and elbow hit often to that rollgaces bar? :)

Btw, what kind of desibel levels you have with that exhaust system? And what exhaust header is that, custom made?
Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

Its snug in there but none of my limbs bang into anything.....cramp in my right leg got me bad when running in and tunnel emits a fair bit of heat. That side bar is substantial.
Exhaust properly tested for track access 3/4 of maximum revs @7000 rpm 98dB . Its repackable as well. Headers are custom made by same company that made silencer set up. Its a 3 in 1 at the silencer.  Engine side of headers are heat wrap ill get zircotec coated at some point.  The exposed part get very hot and once youve burnt yourself once its enough to remember not to again lol!  Nice and quiet on tick over.
