Car seems to be going very well. Just a pity we can't hear it a bit better.



How did you find it with the new setup? Great Fun?

Thanks, il ask the lad who supplied he camera to do a clip with more engine noise if he can,
as im sure he turned that down to be able to hear the notes

New set up is savage, its taking a lot of getting used to and caused a few moments, and close calls
but it seems to be pulling great and is lots of fun

Goes like the clappers!!!

"Are you fucking listeneing"

"Yeh Yeh Yeh"

[EllisG93]

wow..thats my kinda civic..rally cars are my fav..so civic ones = win.

[big165]

thanks for the replies

Its great fun with the new power and cant wait to head out again,
a few jobs to do and just check over everything and
hopefully will be out again in 2 weeks or if not we will be out the 1st weekend in April

So far we are in 5th in class in the West Coast Championship
and 5th in class in the Dunlop National Championship

So a great start to the year, if we keep it in one piece

Poor lad was speechless...and deaf after that!

[big165]

Everybody around was deaf after it

After noticing just how fast my car was able to go with its new found power,
Ive taken the plunge and made an upgrade to the handling to cope
in the form of 3way Proflex suspension

Its way over any budget I had planned, but after talking to plenty of other rally lads it comes highly recommended
and is supposed to be money well spend

The downside to all the adjustment is it takes a lot of time to set it up
but as I'm rallying in a local event at the weekend which is non championship we hope to get it well on its way,
but I have been warned that it could 3 or 4 events before it will be spot on
I'm starting it out on the same settings as a buddy's eg and after that its a case of trial and error

Wow that looks like seriously hardcore suspension setup

Probably worth about the same as my car

Will be intersting to see your views on them after you've had a go with them

Thanks

I dont even want to think about the price

But Ive yet to hear anybody I know rallying knock them
But if the set up is wrong they will be horrible, so hopefully that will all go ok

But would probably be completly over the top for road or track day even,
its more for soaking up bumps and crests and jumps in rallying
