Hi, I’ve just spent the last few months putting together a Caterham R400. Yesterday I did my first trackday at Knockhill – wow! I met Mass and he suggested I sign up with you Forum – so here I am! There’s no doubt I’m hooked and I’m sure you’ll see more of me around. :thumbsup

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Hi Mass,

I did, but I had the kids on sunday last week so couldn't make it, in a way it's good they spent so long on your set up, means it's most likely spot on now? I won't be able to make tomorrow as my parents are here today until sunday lunch time so may head up to watch supercar sunday in the afternoon???

I'm away on holiday next thursday for a week so leaving the car with Ali to get sorted an get all my new bits fitted... yippee.. He'll be fitting S2 LSS suspension, RS14 pads and muttsnuts Discs, a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold and a de-cat pipe. I'm hoping to find an induction kit at a reasonable price before I go too? May have to buy new though?? after all that it'll just want tyres to be track ready I think?? :D

Mark, sooo looking forward to see you tracking the elise soon :mrgreen: As I said, don't bother changing the tryes until you wear them out.

Unless they are too hard (which I've seen more than once) so that they never actually wear out, no matter the abuse they get :mrgreen:

Slap some cheap T1Rs on it asap - will make more of a difference than the rest of the mods you've got put together IMO :thumbsup

Hi David,

spoke to you last night at the end of the tracknight ( along with Mass, Pete039 and DJ )
You've made a very good job of the car, first Duratech R400 I've seen up close - looks great :thumbsup
