Its either shells or shells and crank due to oil starvation going to fast around the corners i recon..

Cost is mad mate even if you try do it cheap its not possible .

Season all in without anything breaking i recon 15K+ min cost me 2k for 1 event and a re build so 5-7k

Hi fella,

Totally gutted for what happened today mate, as you know when we were playing in the first outing I was giggling when you where going sideways at around 80mph through druids under the trees you where giving it some stick fella

As stated above yep couldnt agree with you any more, I reckon at least £15k for a season without anything breaking I went out on a full trackday and used up a new set of pads (DS2500> roughly £150) bought a new set for today and there goosed already and the discs are too. This game REALLY takes it out of the car.

I can imagine your a bit (understatement I know) gutted with the day being cut short, but considering you have just bought it and gone out and managed a 1:39 thats bloody impressive fella

Lee.

Gutted for you Fud but thanks sooo much for lending me your diff mate Got some good pics of you - will post up tomorrow.

Toffee - 1 day for DS2500 pads !! You need to save some money and get some proper PF pads that will last a season and work too.

Many thanks kidda i was really realy enjoying the side ways action i was trying to do a olly clark drift from 2010 lol.I was getting used to the diff, suspension, brakes, learning the track ws alot to take in,And as you stated hadnt drove the car around a bend before the weekend and the times were dropping fast trying to catch up with you .You did great with 150bhp less than me just shows suspension handling and a good driver is v important on the day

Sorry to hear this fud, you must be gutted but at the sametime in a crazy way its been an eye opener for you and a good experience at your first time attack, and I am sure you will make more back on the car then you bought it for anyway so your quids in to.

So what's next then champ? Another race car or just a road going project?

Gutted for you Mark...really am mate as i know 1sr hand what a failure can cost on the first outing.

All the best mate on your next move.

Many thanks lads,Duncan im glad i could support your win with my diff .

sso and totb are ok ive done sso last 2 years and did great in a 5k type r, sprinting is good but i like a full on race .Im thinking of hill climb or forrest rallying in a hatch spec c .I would so love to do totb but im not in the position to outlay all that money and get nothing back in, ie advertising my buisness ..

But hey like many have said ive done it i loved it and i lived the dream even though it was for only 1 event
