[Duncan Grier]

Ok so in true RTOC fashion I started the outstanding work on the track beast the weekedn before. Collected the trailer and car which ate half of saturday (started at 6am ) completed some chores and spent a couple of hrs late in the evening trying to remember what the hell I was doing lol

Spent most of sunday finishing most of the wiring, pipework, start setting up the stack dash and installed the EVC boost controller.

Car starts and drives although some strange slight metalic grinding from the box that was not there was I drove it last year is present hope its due to sitting in storage so long but will find out soon enough

So no time to get geo or RR or in fact finish the custom bonnet so its the mad max bonnet (engine sticking out of it lol) and set the boost up on track and hope the rad is upto the job of cooling and everything functioning as it should

Figured I could always tweak it on the day but better to actually get there with it this year was better than a fully finished product

VX220 vag conversion delayed a further 2 weesk now

Really looking forward to coming and need to dig out tent next

So sure I will be busy trying to finish a load of smaller jobs off and 1 big job - make seat which failed in epic style last time

[Mart]

Place ya bets...

[Duncan Grier]

Mart sent you a picture yesterday, did you not get it? Cheeky fecker

I will there in the car as it happens firends VX220 that I drove at Donny December gone is available if I want but gonig to risk it all on the track beast and hope it does not die or kill me

DG

[Mart]

No picture received mate.

It'll be good to finally see the track beast in the flesh

You & Sarah there both nights?

[Duncan Grier]

Did wonder why no relpy

Will have a look but just trying to upload a few cheeky pics

Yes going to come up tut north Friday evening after work and dropping young Grier off to nanny day care

Hopefully if I need help to tweak the car will have plenty of time and few likely lads around to help. Been told under no circumstances NOT to track the octavia LOL - fancy some 4 wheel drifting with the new setup but alas it has done 121k and needs to tow the trailer back home so prob for the best in fairness gets abused as it is

You there Friday night also sir?

Changed over the rear screen, got in another now with a raider wording on it, looks much nicer on the back and not showing loads of scratches on it now in the window. Just need to find the sticker to put in the back of the window plus sort out a good replica of the more to life with renault.

I know it's there, it's an ok replica, comparing to Steves original rather get closer to that. No offence to his copy as he has got it replicated himself.

[Tony Walker]

Pretty much ready

[D4WNO]

That's looking awesome Tony

Sooooooo she past, just one advisory rear wheel bearing seems to have a little play. Should be ok I reckon...
Didn't get a chance to go for a drive as I ran out of time today, so the trip here should see if it's ok
