Think it had bodywork and suspension on rear, rushing to get to us for geo! QC issues?
-
Arrived with only 3 of the 5 bolts still in, and they were only on a thread or two!
-
Oops
How can you not notice?
-
Seemingly not!
-
Slider pin is fine, well the one that is there! Just not screwed in other completely missing.
One on the other caliper was half unscrewed as well!

What readings did you get for front camber, castor and sai? Imbalance here is the most likely cause of the drift/pull?
-
I think I would have had a go at moving the front subframe, to increase caster, but not a major issue. Caster is a bit lower than I would have expected but it is quite even, which I feel is more important.

Brake cleaner is pretty good, try it on the seat back or somewhere hidden first though!

Good machine, we have one. Later Hawkeye is a development from it with smaller targets on the wheels and bluetooth. Realistically most proper wheel alignment machines in good order are a good bit of kit, IF USED CORRECTLY. Any old muppet can buy the best machine and make an almighty balls-up if they don't know how to use it properly!

Reads ok but will it fit the Renault gearbox?
Doubtful
Would need adaptor plate, GT40 rep probably use them, shouldn't be too much of a problem!

No excuse now!

Chevy v8 all the way! What's up with the one you have? Cheap to rebuild or get a crate motor for it. These any good?

Worth pulling subframe to balance caster and camber, I would think.

I read on the EDC Website RMS competed at Knockhill.
- Don't think it's the same car tho.....?
Anyways;
Sorry Pete, only just spotted your reply. Think it is the same car, driver Andy Cooper. In the Knockhill report he is far left in blue overalls in the trophy picture.

Would it be possible to make it so we are able to renew membership before the expiry of the subscription? Rather as now, where we can only renew after the subscription has expired.

Why do you think they came off, under-torqued?
Pretty sure he only nipped them up and didn't tighten them once it was back on the ground.

Toe settings are used to determine the way the car reacts to steering inputs. They differ from car to car due to differences in the design of the suspension and the compliance of the bushings.

Some good footage there. We went over with 3 cars from north west, all green Zephyr 4 with colour coded bumpers, white 302 supercharged cortina mk2 and my ropey 99 Dodge dakota minus a front bumper. Pity you didn't get footage of the evil green 34, spool should make it interesting to drive.
Is that the one about 1:15 in the 2nd vid coming in?
I had some still footage of some cars and some moving footage of some that i deleted as i ran out of space to record and started deleting stuff to get cars leaving. I'll have to delete alot of music before the next one i go too.
A good turnout though.
I think i saw your cars, i had got a bit low on space by then so i was only filming stuff leaving by then.
Yep thats the one, missed it 1st time!
Quite a low turnout compared with late season, but excellent for April.
Good videos
Will see you next month?

It would be a good opportunity to increase my knowledge and skill level and find out just what I do know!
