  1. Will do, going to do a few test days early on in the year at Goodwood to get the setup just right
  2. My new suspension setup arrived today Courtesy of Steve Linton.. Nitron NTR Racing R3 These have just been serviced so are as new, there is no sign of use at all !! As the track Supra is so track focused I felt it needed a fully adjustable race setup. The 2 way Japanese Öhlin's I have on the car are good but are really just for a fast road car. I felt the car needed something to do it justice on the suspension side, something to really show people how good a car Ryan built.. Having the best suspension kit that Nitron do I think is a worthy addition. Looking forward to getting custom spring rates on so I can really tune the car to be a real corner whore!
  3. Ha, Cheers I am going to be re-working the cage over the winter mainly to get it up to spec for TA next year. Any extra weight the re-worked cage adds will be removed from the car via the use of Carbon fibre Quite a lot of the aluminium panelling inside will be replaced with CF as well as Custom CF doors, Wings & Bonnet. So hopefully even after the cage has been re-worked It should still be a little lighter than it is now. I am going to also have to install an MSA/FIA approved Fuel cell too so it’s a shame to remove the custom tank Ryan had made for the car (which I am sure is fine anyway) unless it has MSA/FIA approval I won’t be allowed to enter TA until its replaced along with a Spill tray and firewall but then thinking about it, its not all bad, I would rather not burn to death in a fireball if I did go rear end into a wall...
  4. Reminds me actually, I didn't update with a picture of where the Dash2 unit now is..
  5. Here are some pics from my last trackday of the year @ silverstone. Got some nice new upgrades coming in for next season, the big one will be a nice new suspension setup using the Nitron NTR Race R3 kit. Other stuff will be plenty more carbon parts, new seats, new fuel cell and a re-work of the roll cage. If things go well then the new engine should be complete by March time. Cant wait for next year now!!
  6. I dont no I can ask the guy who was doing the photography on the day to see if he has one? I do like this one, however I am not good with post processing so someone would need to do it lol
  7. Here are a couple of pro photo's taken from my last track day at silverstone.
  8. Have you had the coolant tested for fuel/exhaust gases? if not do it. Or buy the kit to do it yourself. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/UNIVERSAL-BLOCK-TESTER-KIT-FOR-GASKETS-CYLINDER-HEADS-PETROL-DIESEL-BT500-/140884673940?pt=UK_Diagnostic_Tools_Equipment&hash=item20cd618594

  10. Ooooohh, maybe interested in one of those for the engine build I'm doing...
  11. Will do mate You going to get the Supe out on track soon?
  12. Looking at doing a couple of rounds of Time attack next year. Then depending on how that goes maybe a similar series to what Steve L did if my car meets regs. So next year it will be a mixture of TA and Track Days.
  13. Sorry been a while since an update... been really busy.. Which reminds me I decided to setup a FB blog page for people who may be interested in staying up to date with the development work on the track car. http://www.facebook.com/pages/A2BT-Racing-Supra/320300184711298 I will of course keep this thread updated too, but if anyone wants to know updates as and when... well there it is

  18. I assume that you are looking at the plastics for performance site? They dont have many pictures, I have found though that they are happy to send images, all you have to do is get in contact with them. Which reminds me I need to replace my driver and passanger lexan windows, they are getting pretty scratched up now after a few years. - - - Updated - - - Nice one mate, Looks good. Get the footage up
