I so hope all your comments become true :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I raced cars on slicks for many years and know the difference they make when they come alive properly, sadly when I tried ex-BTCC tyres once before they were too hard for my car and really did not work for me. I was faster on my t...

Received my new slick tyres today, well new to me. These 10" wide soft Yokohama's were allegedly used in Macau which was the last race in 2019 on Rob Huffs World Touring Car Cup car. They do look very new and still have good meat on them, all six for £170 delivered has got to be a result and even mo...

Track Attack Media Launch day @ Brands Hatch 27th February. This will launch the season with BTCC and all other Saloons & Single Seaters racing on MSVR tracks in 2020. Public will be welcome for free to see many many different race cars in one place on the day. Banzai Magazine will be coming along t...

Maybe worth knowing that we were one of the first selling Tein when the product was launched in the UK some 18 years ago and this is only the second time I have heard of any kind of failure. The other one was a customer years ago who must somehow forced and broke the adjuster, disconnecting the adju...

Here's a different take on gearing. When I put my S1 RX-8, that had a 6 speed box back to "road car spec" I fitted a 4.3 Auto diff and to me this was the diff that Mazda should have fitted as 1st gear became much more usable plus it was obviously more motorway friendly. On the road, acceleration was...

Thanks Guys. Ranjan, Despite the money and level they are racing at, as you will know, It showed me so many similarities and that racing is racing and that a common thread exists among all racers no matter what the type of racing. Really nice that being just a club racer, the guys treated me at the ...

Wow this was a strange catalog of events over the last few days. Lisa and myself went to Florida for Christmas and at the last minute just before we left she changed from going to Cocoa Beach to Daytona and this started a stage series of events. Next as we were staying across the road from the Stadi...

I am so tempted by this remote control system which most race cars have fitted these days but being so cheap I had my doubts about their reliability in long term use and so stuck with my manual Ohlins, but hearing that Clive has this fitted to his race car and has had no problems is a game changer!...

Active with GPS. I explained to Rod that this was what was need for a great set up and spending more money on the more expensive kits was just not required. I also told him that as far as I was aware, the only other kit on the market like this is offered by Porsche as an accessory for 6K without fit...

Pleased your as happy as I knew you would be :thumleft: . You wont set the suspension this hard on the road but on track I use 2's and 3's front or rear to get the balance I need, with 4-5 as my "wet" setting, which I used to good effect in my last race of the year below. Had I not been able to rese...

Had mine on the Race Car for 5 years now with no issues

Rod, I am sure you wont need any sort of upgrade as you have the extra GPS sensor incorporated in the kit. The built-In G-Sensor allows G-actuated automatic adjustment of damping force while driving. Additional automatic speed-sensitive damping force adjustment feature is available with the use of o...

Thanks Dave and no I wasn't aware of the feature.
Good bit of PR for the Track Attack series but wow, that was a real old picture of the RX-8

Got all my dates through and it looks like its going to be a busy season Track Attack / Thunder Saloon Dates 2020 April 10th/11th Donington Thunder Saloon April 13 Oulton Park [Supporting British Gt Championship ] Track Attack May 25th Mallory Thunder Saloon June 14 Mallory Park Track Attack July 4 ...

On MRC we do a video of the day, but this one was so good I thought I would post it here as well :mrgreen: . Stick with it past the RO80 Stuff and you will find this is a very very good Video and fully explains how our engines work and produce so much power Even my RX-8 is Banned from some club form...

Well done for having the patience to strip and repair the parts to get your Mot

As above you will find the FD quite unforgiving on track compared to an RX-8, however Jon has given you some good advise already.

None announced at the briefing and none in evidence trackside and at the speeds I was capable of I had plenty of time for sightseeing.

When I was out there was a guy taking pictures up at Druids who looked like he was maybe "official"
Perhaps Nick will know?

Proud to say I upheld Mazda Rotary Honour in 2019 and last night at the awards ceremony, I was presented with the trophy as a Track Attack Champion for the second year running. Funnily enough, it was Kelly (RX-8 owner) who presented my trophy and she did well, winning her class as well =D> Been a gr...

Here we go,here's the full size version of my avatar. Amusingly, a couple of years ago racing at Combe one of the guys reckoned that as he got near me going into quarry his car misfired and thought all my flame was taking the oxygen away from his intake as the car was OK every other time ! :lol: :lo...

Still joining

Many thanks guys appreciated, hopefully I can give you some good races to watch next year

Huge thanks everyone, just tipped the 100 mark

Many thanks to all. We are up to 91 subscribers not how many more we need to help the channel. I seem to remember Philip saying that he needed X amount to make the channel more visible etc. More importantly this will help gain recognition for Philips work, I know the last one took him 5 hours to con...

Thanks Shroom,

Not to good in front of the camera, but I see where your coming from.

Maybe a walk around with the GoPro inside and out of the car and a mention of the conditions on the day is doable

Shroom, Thank you for the input.

Real tough to pick titles that attract, we keep fighting with this one

Not too sure what you meant with this one ?

Would you ever expand on videos of the day?
