  2. haha yes thanks Lauren - i did mean more car related tips specific to the 86, but perhaps didn't make that very clear!

    Last time i drove Oulton was in a Caterham R300 - so expect to be a little slower this time round :P

    The car is booked in at RRG Macc. on 31/10 for new front tyres so gives me a couple of weeks to scrub them in. I'm sure Rich's team will give it all the once over for me then.

    Brakes is a very good point, i am still on the original pads and discs so worth getting them checked over whilst there. will be interested to see how they fair up on track as heard mixed reviews.

    I also have a nice Defi ZD gauge fitted so can keep an eye on the oil temps etc as for some reason i have it in my head these can get a bit high?!


  3. I am finally getting round to getting the 86 on track at Oulton Park on 14th November :-) can't wait!

    The last sprint I did in the 86 was, in a word, slow! So looking forward to really getting to know the cars limits and how driving style will need to change from the MR2. 

    So....

    i feel a little lost without 2 pages of jobs to prep.! Any tips on things to look out for?

     

     


  4. well that was a pretty dismal weekend :-(

     

    didn't really get to see much of everyone as the afternoon was mainly spent doing some basic diagnosis on the ill fated mr2 engine.  problem seems to be valve related, but not going to know for sure until i can recover it back at the weekend.

     

    Didn't get chance to say goodbye to everyone as my sister had to shoot off and she was my lift back.  hope everyone had a better day!
