  1. As long as there's not quarter of an inch of standing water, the track tyres are actually surprisingly good.
  2. For wet track days just use your road wheels / tyres - you'll learn loads. The crossover point is because of different scaling down the right. The Dastek rollers are pretty 'good' numbers from what I can tell, more likely to be accurate but not where you'd go if you want to make a certain number
  3. Don't stop just because it gets a bit miserable, winter track days are the best!
  4. Is that was it says in the manual? "Torque: f**king tight."
  5. That is impressive - I've never encountered a bolt so stuck before! Hope you can get it sorted the 'deep end' way...!
  6. Tried a breaker bar, Luke?
  7. Tried a blow torch? If you directly heat the head until it glows a bit, then smash it with a hammer, should free it up.
  8. :bow: Unfortunately that definitely goes in the 'that'll never work' category I reckon
  9. Ah, yeah, 2ft won't be enough As you said, double that up, at least!
  10. We were only at 3 with less than a month to go, then another 20 signed up within a few weeks! And yes, getting admin done in advance will really help. Hopefully a few of those going to the training will stick around for the national, too
  11. Thanks guys - just a heads up that the training day is now full. We have had a good response to this and want to make sure we can get round everyone! Cheers, Adam
  12. Can get away without one on a low boost turbo setup too, and standard injectors. But NA is still better
  13. A tweaked AFM. Take it somewhere that knows what they are doing, or give me a shout, I've been playing around with them recently and pretty sure I know exactly what BLiNK do and charge £100 for. 14 degrees isn't necessarily the best, it's just a safe 'average'. Have a read of this: http://www.mx5nutz.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=112653 I would have a supercharger over a turbo if I had to go FI, but as said there is more knowledge around turbos...
  14. You can do some pretty good NA tuning on the MX-5, but it sounds like a small turbo is what you're after Mike. Even 5psi would put it up to about 150bhp.
  15. Haha, massive phone screen fail :$ Question still stands
  16. They are changing their logo a little, and have seemingly reduced their range of trials stuff to do more MTB stuff, but that's about it.
  17. Kings are actually pretty high - about 31mm, some are as low as 20. Stack heights are listed on all our headsets: http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/standard_headsets/c19.html Lowest is the Trialtech Sport Lite I think, at 20mm.
  18. It's a good point - but a shame if we have to state the obvious. It would make any website a pretty tedious place to be The Hashtagg cranks are a different product entirely, maybe they are light AND strong? It does happen, but generally only following a few months / years of testing and with decent design / manufacturing process. What I was about to add. Some companies (the ones who do things properly) will be developing such a thing, but it takes time - a lot more than just boshing out a CNC crank with no testing!
  19. Light grind if you want best dry weather performance IMO.
  20. Looks high on the front right... Was your equivalent weight in the drivers seat? Interesting how the rear figures change without any adjustments being made! Glad to hear it feels better though, did have a lot of toe in before which always feels weird!
  21. "PLEASE DONT HESITATE TO CONTACT ME"?
  22. I think that clearly indicates it is far from the best city in the world
