Default Time attack scoob

You was coming through Mirfield, Huddersfield to Dewsbury road.
That car looks proper mad.
Nice motor,

Mine was parked, but I did wave.

Your car looks amazing. I'v seen pictures before, but that body kit and the way it stands on the road. BIG WOW. its ace.

I will get mine sorted, its only a drive shaft, I'm looking at getting modified ones instead of just fitting std ones as they keep breaking. The rear diff as been noisy for a while, It might just want stripping and shimming, I'm entering grudgment day 18th April so it will have to be done for then. I would like to do a track day before then too.

Thanks - I have got so used to how it looks now that it surprises me when I see it in unusual places like tesco car park or at my daughters school and see quite how different it looks from the 'norm'

Still drives as easy as the std scooby though (if not more so) so i tend to use it as much as I can.

Hope you get yours sorted - sounds a bit unusual to go through the driveshafts so much - have you had the diff set up looked at ?

Had a good look at it now.
Drive shaft seems OK
The Bering housing on the N/S of the diff, the disc with the 5 bolts in it, Has pushed and broken away from the rest of the diff, not sure how it has happened.

The front and rear diffs have been changed for platted ones.

I sure I will get it sorted soon,
Its getting trailered to the garage Monday.
Just been getting some prices for other bits that I am wanting doing.

I watched a Youtube of yours the other day from Silverstone. the one of you passing the EVO with twin pipes.
Nice

If I get the engine Forged on mine at the end of this year I am looking at doing some Time attack next year. I would love to do it this year but 300 BHP just ant going to do it,
New engine will be running 450. I know its not masive but I still want reliability. I need to be a bit more caring with my car. 6500rpm then dump clutch does not help.

scooby sprint it is again for me, I loves it last year, Weather fantasic at all rounds, Driver of the day @ round 1, got a passenger ride in the WRC scoob for that.
got 3rd in modified, priveteers. overall for the championship.

Yeh Duncan, thats what its all about, FUN, The scoobysprint is big fun for me, with it been tight on the track, I did'nt do too bad,
middle of the pack with 350 is good.
