    I wish you had a separate running progress thread about your car, it's the absolute bollocks. Would love to see more. It's inspiring. Well done mate

    Cracking little day and good turn out of RTOC bods just a shame the weather and the cars didn't want to play ball.

    I myself had issues. Mainly with the wonderful rainbow pattern spreading from under my car, which after thinking I'd trashed my new radiator turned out to be the fan switch needed nipping up. Then it started leaking oil from the oil banjo so nipping that up sorted that don't think I've ever gone near that in five years. I took that as a sign from the gods of GTT's to no run. Plus I didn't want to drop any fluids on the track after the pod staff spend 5 hours prepping the track. Which seemed very grippy with very good times being posted by people with low terminal speeds.

    Well done to Scott on his first time at the pod 15.5 is a good starting point.

    Was cool to see a Renault 5 stock car and all the other mighty impressive machinery running some proper quick cars and go karts.

    Sorry to see that Robbie. I used the same Clio 172 outer CVs as you and touch wood I had no trouble. I've sent off some data to Driveshaft shop in the USA as discussed. I'll let you know what options they have for us.

    The other possibility is to switch to VW outers, which seem very strong. I need to find a VW drive flange to see if it can be turned down to press in to a Renault bearing.
