Colin Greer - Greersport.

I've heard of Greer Sport, but not heard of Colin (in a driving sense). Is he a pro driver, or more so does he drive competitevly?

He used to rally a scooby,evo6 then moved on to drive the Fiesta Challenge for M Sport then work for Stan something in Ireland and now back to his Dad's Garage at Greesport. He hasn't drove competitivly for 3 years now and enjoyed every minute at TOTB.

Judging by the vids, looks like he's lost none of his ample car control skills. Very impressive.

TBH...the car needs better/wider tyres,wider wheels and more seat time to be competitive.More tweeks to the chassis.

Afterall it a box fresh car and the proper shakedown was done at TOTB.

Oh the brakes needs tweeking too.

Thanks for the comments Joz

No mate I didn't get to TOTB, I would have come over if I was. Hopefully I'll be there next year.
Won't be competing but nice to drive my own car there lol.
Being an Essex boy its a bit of a trot for me up there.

How is your oil cooler holding up? I had reservations about mounting it with both fittings on the bottom like that. Is yours thermostatic too?

I just can't wait to get my own car built now.

Oil temp could do with being lower so will opt for a bigger cooler later on. It has a thermostatic sandwich plate.

Its a 4 hour drive to TOTB for us up here!

Looking forward to see the results from your build too.I hope you get good results too Frayz
