When's your first Race of 2011 and What's left to do ?
Discussion
To start the ball rolling..
Our first race is Oulton on 26th March with BARC Sports/Saloons , still need to scrub in some new tyres (which we dont have yet) and get a good dry Test in the car.
This season im driving a a newly refreshed , but older and less powerfull TVR and still haven't got to know it yet - so there's still a few things to sort out - and track time is what's really needed before the meeting.
Im not sure if the seat is a touch to tight as well, so im back at the gym

23rd April at Croft with the Northern Sports and Saloon Car Championship.
Whats left to do... Seriously....
1. Drop no.2 engine and gearbox in, plumbing etc
2. Construct new wiring loom, fit new dashboard
3. Source and install ignition system
4. Shake down car
5. Swap no.2 engine for No.1 engine that has still to be built
Overhaul trailer, fix all niggles,
Just the usual at this point in the year. Good luck all

Entering BRSCC OSS championship, first race is 9th April.
Still to do:-
1) Transponder, extinguisher, harnesses
2) Replace all wishbones
3) Get alignment done
4) Tyres fitted
5) Fix coolant leak (waiting on part)
6) Convert trailer to a covered trailer
7) Fit towbar
Nothing too worrying, but really hoping no.6 works out OK - hoping to do a trackday on 19th March to check the car out.

The new car is nowhere near ready we'll be lucky if it is out by mid season.
Last years car is still on the trailer after being checked over and put back on after Oulton last October.
Usual pre season safety checks, some bodywork repair and set up ready for testing March 17th.
Easy.... I just keep passing spanners and providing the coffee

Hi Daz, are you out in a RV8 Tussy then? I've just got a few bits and bats to do and then ready to test at Oulton on the 29th of March. If all goes well I may well enter the 30 min race before the 6 hour at Snett at the end of April.Our first race is Oulton on 26th March with BARC Sports/Saloons , still need to scrub in some new tyres (which we dont have yet) and get a good dry Test in the car.

ooooooo, proper car!!! Whats the plans for the CRX?We are currently here . . . .
As stinkysteve, will be doing the NSSCC again, car hasn't really changed much since last year. New exhaust, bigger master cylinder, thats about it. Gonna try some wider tyres on the front, see if I can get more!

Brands Early May CSCC Tintops.
Its had a respray, new driveshafts, fluids changed, run on the dyno, loads of wiring jobs done and we now have a working pit lane limiter.
So shakedown at Llandow next week then all thats left is Stickers, wire up headlights, bleed brakes and scrub a set of tyres.
Im sure we will find plenty to do with the masses of spare time

Graham would our Honda CRX be ok for this race? The GT Cup is at Spa that weekend - which we sponsor, and so we are going anyway - would be good to sneak a race in!!Andy
