They're on it the front was our only good post 97 one and the back was easier to get at than the alternatives Side repeater's on there too but the strut brace is still in the garage, never got round to fitting that, might try it at Combe in September, see what difference it makes.

No. After crashing my last one I decided it was more practical to tow it and have a daily driver. No point in paying tax, MOT and insurance for a car that's been used 4 times upto now this year.

It only has to be insured if it's taxed, SORN it and it doesn't need to be insured.

That pink issue on the camera is a sensor problem, there was a recall for them but it's too old now. Got a snipe on a few others.

Aye, 2ltr setup with Ferodo DS2500. I only fitted the pads before Knockhill and the old tyres were that useless I never properly tried them for fear of locking all 4 wheels so TVL is a tester for those too.

Federal FZ-201s, if they grip as well as they look then I'm onto a winner Never read any reviews so not got a clue what to expect, they don't look great for wet conditions but we'll see

They were the second cheapest option that Tweeks gave me when they said they can't get r888s. The only thing cheaper was Federal RS-Rs but they're pretty much road tyres again.

The full set was about £506+fitting though so not particularly cheap, no
