Car went well, didn't really miss a beat all weekend. The main goal for the weekend was just to get through the 1hr race and bring it home in one piece, which I did. Got pretty interesting at times being passed by much quicker cars.

Put the new car on the scales and it's about 15kg lighter than the old car. Was on about the same pace as the old car but I think I was losing a bit of time without the Torsen diff.

Should have a new diff and ECU in the car for the next meeting at Lakeside.

Not really sure :D

6UL wheels & Sparco passenger seat are probably most of it, maybe a few little unneccesary brackets here and there.

Going with a Haltech Platinum 1000.

The E8 has been discontinued, this is the replacement.

It apparently has few new features, and Gary seems very happy with them from the tuning side of things.

No, not yet.

I'm just concentrating on getting the diff, ECU and radiator in before the Lakeside meeting on the 13/09.

Who's driving the turboed beast at the V8s?

Might see you Saturday, if you're out there.

Paul.

That was 8 days ago. :D

Tony is driving it. I'm going to try and make race 1 at 5pm on Friday and race 2 early Saturday morning. I'm busy after that.
