Re: Pistols MR2 stories... Race car and Project car..
what a good day.. loved every seond of it
started off with practice runs..
well let say, new car, new tyres and new track.. it tried to spin out, somehow caught it
Will get a vid up later..
really enjoyed the track itself, changing surfaces levels of grip being an airfiled..
Layout of the track was brilliant
after my first timed run of 2.39. i wanted to improve
gradually i did
because i was only car in my class i set my self a goal..after first timed run there was a guy called Guy in D-Pro fully stripped with R88s etc who set a time of 2.33.9 so i wanted to beat that as he was running 2.33/2.34 consistant
When i got to that point i was very chuffed i had achieved what i set out to do.
Happy with the car so i have seen some track time, but i do want to do suspension work, the original shocks are showing their age
And won a trophy so happy dayz
brake dust killing the new paint
Bring on blyton
Anyone thinking about doing the series.. DO IT

Like the video especially the hairy moment.
Be good to see your fastest lap if you manage to upload it.

Re: Pistols MR2 stories... Race car and Project car..
Good skills there dude! Looks like a lot of fun
What's the deal with the other marques there? Is there a separate sprint event/series for non Toyotas?

Braided Brake lines

Re: Pistols MR2 stories... Race car and Project car..
updates so far...
my new exhaust arrived today
my cancer bars looked a little worse for wear..
so made some new ones at work.. extra strengthed as ends have been welded up too
My new Antiroll bars turned up..
they are very very beefy
so far went to fit them and one of the bolts have snapped so looking at that tomorrow
also been fitting my new suspension, also my HEL lines, which not overly happy with as no brackets to support the lines, found out goodridge ones have the brackets so ordered some of them
still unsure how i will hold the brake line to the coilover as it has no bracket.. any suggestions?
and here is how the car sits before fitting coilovers
and old exhaust

Good progress buddy
Hope the exhaust is OK for the noise regs. Are you bunging it?
