Aarons Track Project

[aaron86]

A few more little upgrades, new steering wheel, greenstuff pads, new 4 point harness (now got a matching pair) and finally fitted the OZ Titan wheels with T1Rs ready for Cadwell

Sprayed my wheels with plasti-dip, turned out better than I expected

Well had a great day at Cadwell (my new favourite track) and the car performed really well, felt great through the corners but could do with a little more straight line speed. The 300mm disc conversion really stops the car but the greenstuff pads couldn't take the punishment :-( Overall a fab day and the car held its own by showing up newer more expensive toys.

Last photo is pukka! It's impressive someones actually remembering to save money to actaully pay for track time! The high majority of peeps with any kind of track car spend money 'upgrading' it and have none left to take it out :lol:

I kept having a battle with the ST, he had a bit more straight line speed but more than made up for it in the corners, hopefully i will get out another 5-6 times this year.

This would plug the hole where your clock should be nicely

Excellent - saw the Javelin pics on Facebook and "liked" your pic - I recognised the car from here.

We love Cadwell too, a real drivers circuit although it can be a car killer, last time we were there we blew both cars clutches going over the mountain.

We will be at Cadwell on the 29th May. Great to see the car in action, nice little video.

Cheers Adam will have to look into getting one, been looking for a discrete lap timer but haven't found one yet.
Noobrider - It does stand out from the norm likewise with yours :grin:

Quite a technical circuit and the mount is great, my seats are on the floor so I am very low in the car and all you can see is the sky when going up it. Once I learnt where I was cooking the brakes and built up my confidence I brought my lap times down from 2:06 to 1:54•6 can't wait to get some new pads maybe a bit of brake cooling and back there again.

The picture i showed you is one i have for sale, wanna buy it?

I'm ok thanks adampuma I'm still wanting a lap timer there. Just booked blyton for the 21st of this month and it is the new circuit layout so should be good fun.

 

[aaron86]

Few odd jobs done this weekend, MOT (passed) taxed and also bled the brake system and used motul rbf600 hoping this might eradicate my braking issues

Not a great pic but my door cards

 

[Flying Scotsman]

What material did you use for the door cards?

 

[aaron86]

Its called foamalux, fairly cheap cost around £20 to do both sides and really light

 

[aaron86]

Well I've had another cracking day at Blyton Park, the new circuit layout is much better
Also got some brilliant photos from extreme photography

 

[Noobrider]

yep saw and liked on Javelins facebook page - new layout looks interesting at Blyton but I still prefer Oulton and Cadwell

 

[Flying Scotsman]

I'm liking this car, we'll need to get on a circuit sometime

Haven't been to oulton yet and I also prefer Cadwell but the new blyton is a vast improvement, well suited to a good handling car :grin: I will post a video later when it's uploaded got a bit frustrated behind a new C63

Deffo need to get on track with another puma soon!!
