I am unsure yet of what class i plan to run in, was debating on upping the power tho it wont be so good at the sprints then!



Pottering with the mini then? :haha:

Yeah been speaking to Rory about it for a while now and really fancy the sprints. Ideally i want as much track time next year as possible but i may settle for doing 1 event next year rather than 2, see how it pans out.

What class to run it at the sls? thats easy, get car dynoed on low boost. Turn boost up at event. Winning.

Aye just pottering around:cool:
Would be good to see more starlets out again. The paddock liked Rores one as it made all the right noises:haha:

For the road car classes you dont need a cage. Rory never had one

Murray

As I say need to read into it a bit more! For the SLS it's the same regulations as the sprints so the rollcage isn't a necessity but for the road going class in sprints you need to have the full interior in the car is that right? That buggers up my idea about the cage as I wasn't looking for a rear seat friendly one! EDIT: Apparently you can just fold the rear seats down though?!

What suspension was Rory running as you can't have pillowball/spherical bearing topmounts either I read?

I was going to start pestering Rory about the sprints soon!

Can get a discount for multiple orders also.

I'd looked at that before and it looks good but the glanza is a different size internally, also I don't want door bars because you can't take the car round the nurburgring (assuming it stays open). I'd been considering chizfab for a 6 point weld in cage, they're reasonably priced and apparently do good work.

We maybe need to make a dedicated thread for this!....

Great to see everyone is planning ahead, looking forward to plenty of updates in the progress threads!

A SLS thread in the track section is a good idea once it kicks off. Perfect place to put some footage/pics of the action.
