Well hopefully it will be a bit warmer than that last few weeks
We are now all set for Goodwood, i will be out again navving for Suze in the Micra, at the Southdown Stage Rally at Goodwood - which provides a high speed challenge and very different to the tight and twisty stages at Longmoor.
The Micra has been making good use of the newly kitted out garage, having a new wishbone fitted (see Longmoor entry) oil & filter change, some shell bracing around the wishbone mounts, new thicker front ARB, and new engine mounts. This was done last weekend with the tracking being sorted this week the car is now all back running and handling very nicely with the new ARB :)
Video cameras are allowed at this venue - so hopefully I will have some on-board video up soon after the event.
The weekend after Goodwood we are both entered for a Autosolo at Castle Coombe - this will be the first round of the CMSG Championship. I will be driving the Rover Rally car at this hopefully. Before that there are a few jobs to be done.... :-
- Remove sump-guard
- Remove spots
- Change engine oil & filter + gearbox oil
- Fit new ducting and air-filter (clean K&N air-filters)
- Fit new tyres to the front & scrub in - Yokohama A539's 185/50 R14
- Fit new front strut top mounts and check condition of all front suspension mounts / joints
- Check tracking
- Adjust engine map 1 to give a slightly higher rev limit - 7250k
So plenty to do before then !
