No, TK's old STi3...............if the cage ever turn's up that is.
Custom Cages assured me it would be sent out last Thursday, called them yesterday to find out it's still there waiting to be dispatched. Only 4 weeks late :rolleyes: and only 1 month and 26 days to go to the 1st round :mad:

Also a little disappointed with no TV coverage this year, would've been nice if this was communicated before parting with any cash :(

It was reported on the TA forum Zak - same as last year though with no coverage then.

according to the advert on the inside back cover of autosport this week it has "vast media coverage"

Grrrrrrrrrr

Oh dear.... :(

Nothing worse than false promises and let downs.

Oh well, at least they answered the phone to provide some comfort.

Good luck for TA.

on the ta forum it said they were working on tv coverage and they would let us know, i was under the impression there would be tv coverage aswell, has it been stated there will be no 2010 coverage
thats a bit pants:(
i also read in auto sport that there would be tv and media coverage, oh well.

Have considered entering the Brands round as a one hit wonder, depends if my new engine is together by then.

i havent seen 1 person fully loaded and ready to go duncan was out testing at snetterton, think he is the only person with their car built:lol1:

:D

Thats before I start the preparation for TA ;)

congratulations you join the exclusive ive paid for time attack and have no car club. interesting to see who still has the furthest to go and still be at round 1?

:D

i will be there at round 1. not paid yet, and dont intend to until my car is 100%, if that meens doing 1 hit wonders then so be it. i am not having a year like 2009 where i payed for everthing and didnt manage to compete in my own car. i am at anglesey on 26th march testing and oulton on 7th april testing, if all ok then i will pay. if its not too late.

LOL you havent even done a round yet!

My friend Matt doing a spot of pre TA testing today at Oulton Park.

Very tidy looking car buddy,will be going for an eyeball at the Oulton Pk round,see what's what,get mi pom poms out and cheer the lads on. :thumb: :D

Nice brakes :cool::cool:

Carbon on Carbon FTW

Nice budget!

how much they cost

get a high carbon content disc and your pads and yours will do that. mine does :cool:

:) They are only a set of AP 6 pots. Just winding you guys up :) I have another clearer pic with the caliper writing on.

He just brakes very late. That photo is in the braking zone at Druids at Oulton, so pretty much the fastest part of the track.

You can brake more or less the same as with carbon carbon anyway in a saloon car. Not worth the £20K for a proper setup IMO, and you can't use them on the road.

are you in ta this season jon ?

andy h

No, not this year. I don't have the budget and I have a new baby girl added to the family since November so thats also a factor. Also they are reducing the track time in 2010, and I can get more track time on a test day or track day.

I proved what you can do with low power and standard engine parts in 2009 (350 ish at Oulton, raised to 400 ish at Snetterton) which was our aim. To go back in I would want to do Club Pro but it's such a mess to put a proper cage in etc, and then I can't fit the kids in when I want to.

For the same season costs you could do some arrive and drive championship.

I might do OHW at Oulton, but not sure yet. I would like to do Oulton if I can. The car is doing 1m 52s now on the full circuit, where we were only doing 1m 56s just before TA last year, so I think we would be pretty quick.

We will see.

Some interesting stats there mate,good luck with what ever you decide to do. :thumb:

1 min 52s is breathtaking mate with that weight and spec

High 52s ;)

It's all brakes and corner speed. The handling is just amazing. It's around 1366 Kgs but with a slight increase to 430bhp now so that has helped a bit. Oulton is my local track too though. I must have done 1000s of laps there in the car and on race bikes. The car just isn't scary compared to a fast litre sports bike.

You going to the Oulton trackday the day before TA 1st round?

I start this year as well with a almost standart 2006 2liter spec c. It´s my first year and I´m really excited :D

Jon, 23 of April is booked :D

PS.: That´s my car on the photo above. Thanks Jon :D

Good man. Looking forward to getting out in mine on track and giving a few passenger rides on the Friday.
