Got Me A New Toy .......

How's that for service!!!!

 

All done.

Fit in and no rub on full lock either way. But not sure when the suspension is compressed. Thinking of getting a 2"lift.



£350 from the states, so I think I'll fabricate my own

@dilligaf , You busy at work ? You can finish the towbar first.

 

No, but I believe he shits in the forest!

Same as Dilli, why do you think he took those morning walks ???

 

What do you need?
If I can make them I’ll do it

 

These fit on top of the struts, front and rear. Just a 2" spacer to raise the body.

 

I reckon I could make them
Would take me a while though and ideally I would need a template or tech drawing
A pattern part of each one would make life easier but if you’ve got them then you’re half way there

 

Nice one Andy. I'm going to do some drawings and a mock up made, but as soon as I do, I'll get them to you. If you can knock me some CAD drawings up, that would be brilliant.

Could do a couple of wood ones , just to make sure they fit!

Got a couple Lazer profilers in the town, so can get the two profiles cut, then get some tubing cut for the spacers between the plates.

 

CHAMPIONS !!!

Admittedly it's just the Novice 12 Car Rally Championship, but we won again tonight. 4 wins and 2 seconds, plus you have to drop 2 of the 6 scores, means we got 40 points to second place 38 points.

Plus we get lots of trophies come awards night, gotta love getting trophies. Plus I'm second place overall in the club's novice championship.

 

Well done

 

Thanks, and yes she does do the hard work. My job is to drive like a loony for 2 hours, not really hard work

She gets to spend the time looking down, reading a map and trying to not get us lost. Plus last night she spent the last hour trying not to puke

 

She doesn't want to! She too scared to drive like what we do, at night down singletrack lanes doing 60+ mph.

We only had 3 'moments' last night !!!

1. Took off over a wee yump, landed sidey-ways, then bit of fishtailing down the road

2. HUGE watersplash (had a lot of rain last 2 days), couldn't see feck all for 2~3 seconds, with the wee mini floating into the verge

3. Downhill, lefthander, opposite camber outside a farm, mud all over, had to stick the NS wheel into the verge and slung it round!! Bloody good training ground to go rallying, this 12 car malarkey. (Think my misspent youth playing Colin McRae on the Playstation, came good for that one)

Thinking of buying a cheap go-pro copy just to record the fun.

 

Got the latest Rally game on my PS4, it's same company as made Colin McRae, but kids don't know who he is now.

Bloody difficult, actually too difficult. Not sure if I'm getting old and slow, or really just too hard. My RS200 is usually scrap by the end of a section
