Right i am going to try and get a trackday up and running who's up for it.




I am taking the XR4i on a trackday before i start working on it and have spoke to a couple of people about doing a trackday who would like to do one.

Its in a place called Elvington which is in York about an hour and a half away.

Its run on a airfield so there is nothing to hit as there are no walls as such and unlike places like Silverstone who will black flag you for spinning here they wont and they let you go as fast and sidways as you like but saftey is always on there minds so they wont let you drive like a fool.




I will more than likely have a 325 4door or another XR4i which i am bidding on now. So sombody can use this as promised in another topic.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PAY FOR THE DAY AND GET THE CAR THERE AND BACK AND FUEL IT FOR THE DAY.




Its £95 for 2 drivers (same car) and £5 to be a passenger. And its also FREE to get in.

Its would be such a laugh us all convoying down there and were else are you going to take your car to its limit and not get a ban.




As i found out this is one of the best ways to see what your car can do and find out what you need to sort to get it to go better.

You dont have to take your own car get a couple of you to buy a £300 pound car and use that.

How funny would it be to see the likes of Tony220 in his NOS metro or stu sidways in his beast.




Its more than likley going to be november so there is plenty of time to get your car ready and comeup with the money.

YOU MUST PAY IN ADVANCE AS THE TRACKDAY IS A PRE-BOOKED EVENT AND THEY DO NOT TAKE MONEY ON THE DAY UNLEDD YOU ARE A PASSENGER.

just tell me when...

and nice pics

Hibert thought you would like them.

Only thing about elvington is the surface - it is very very abrasive

You will do a full set of tyres in over the day - thats new to bald

Unfortunatly, I cant get my std wheels over my front brakes so wont be doing it as the total cost would be £95 + circa £500 for a new set of 18" tyres

stu stop crying and get your wallet out like the rest off us,,

yer come on chewy, man with your kind of money can afford to spend the weekend there

Whats the cost of "Fourskins" nowadays

I dont care what it costs, the Scooby is gona get it, Big time for blowing up on me all them times

luckily i kept my old steelies in the garage with newish tyres

i thought theyd come in useful sometime or another

Its just that after the price of the trackday and then the tires, it prolly works out cheaper to do Oulton Park which is less abrasive, better on tyres, longer, closer, more interesting than an airfield with cones marking the track........

However, Oulton Park is more in the initial outlay which is bound to put people off :rolleyes:

I'll be up for this. Just need to work out whether Iam going to take the Lotus or another car. Will get back to you. I took my Esprit on a driver training day which had a track session at the end. I absolutely hammered it. Said I wouldn't take it on a track again. Might buy something on Ebay or use another Esprit but a 2.2 turbo with Lotus works engine with 408BHP!!! Now that would be fun!! I'll put pictures on this car up later, it's in pieces. It's a joint venture race car which may be ready next month.

Stuy, topgear tyres in Ellesmere port do good part worn 18" from £25-50 each fitted and balanced. It's another option for you??

I once bought a mint set of two rear 285/35/18 Perelli P Zeros for £50/each for my last Esprit.

need dates n times m8y 4 time of work. still interested. need sum decent tyre anyway. may aswell kill these 1s. stuy mac. gota proposition 4 u. wanna b a added driver on my bm. theres always room 4 ur brains where my cars involved!!!!

I might have a new toy by then, still in negotions with the owner of the MK1 escort Cosworth, haggling away to get the best price i can and i have to admit, i am so so tempted.

240BHP at the rear wheels drifting around a track, i must have died and gone to heaven.......





Click here to view topic about MK1 Escort Cosworth

Who else is up for this one then ????

Think its going to in November. Have a look on the link and tell us what dates suit everybody.

Scooby you know you need to use that its a beast.

Stu or anybody i can still get a 4 door 325 if sombody wants to use it. (if they break it they break it we will just dump it on the way home).

Hmmm, Mk1 escort with a cossie engine, go on then jay you twisted my arm :rolleyes:

I might have this ready if Iam lucky.

But it's in SO many pieces, it's touch and go whether it'll be ready. Needs suspension, steering rack and drive shafts before it will drive.

Is that the one with the Race engine Dave ??

Yes. It has come from a S300 Esprit which produced 300BHP. Original owner bought the car new at £60K ten years ago then spent another £30K at Lotus Engineering to knock out another 108BHP. It apparently has titanuim rods and other stuff inside the engine. Owner wrote it off six months later. New owner bought the engine and special ECU from Douglas Valley for £5K eight years ago. It only had 14K on the clock. £20K later and the owner lost interest in the car and this is how is looks now.

BTW, sorry to harp on and go a little off subject. Maybe we should start a new thread and clean this one up don't you think??

Not a problem, its chat about a Monster of a car that might be going on the Trackday, Good info and banter dave

I would still kick your ass round any track if i get this Cozzy

I could get a fwd car if anybody would feel more at home with this spoke to the lad tonight have got me a good deal.

Your avin a Giraffe arnt ya mate

I am looking forward to this one, Date is close to Cruisewirral Birthday but we will have to wait and see what the confirmed date is for the Bash.

It would be great to have some support from members as spectators, watchin the Cozzy roll on its roof, carnt wait

What happens if you book a car under it's reg name and then at the last minute you need to take a different car for one reason or another like it breaks down etc, can you change it to a different car or do you just lose your money?

Think if you get intouch with them or tell then early on the day your ok. But to be honest they have never looked at any of the cars i have taken.

Get a list of who has booked here from the site.

http://www.javelin-motorsport.co.uk/cgi-bin-local/javelin.pl?cgifunction=Search&Ref=20051119

Will maybe pay up if it gets busy enough of forum users.

Same here. I don't want to put my name down and then find out that no one from here is going.

Proviy booked just going to make sure the cars done before i go paying for it.

What kind of track is it ie. long straights etc etc? Just need to know so I can take the right car with me and get the right set up.

Back straight is long i got the bm to 120mph before i needed the breaks could of been faster but the breaks were rubbish. Then the otherside of the course is twisty but not tight as such the turns are sharp but wide then the top bend is a 180 long double apex took that at about 80ish on verybad tyres and hung the backend out and nearly filled my pants.

Well described thanks

I have just booked, Yipee.....

Bring it on

Who else is coming along ??

Com on peps like i said before you dont need to be a driver to get a buzz.

I CAN GET A 325 4DOOR IF SOMBODY WANTS TO KILL IT NEED TO KNOW SO I CAN GET IT THOUGHT???

Even if you are not driving be a passenger or go for a laugh see some nice cars and have a good day with the peps from cruisewirral.

I'm deffo going. Just spoke to the guy at Javenlin and he says that it's ok to arrive in whatever car I want on the day.

They are running 2 courses on the day. One's a track and one's a sprint which is a tight course without any overtaking allowed.

Booked

Yer forgot about the sprint course had it lastime was well cool 1 car at a time though.

Just booked my trailer for the weekend also, carnt wait, bring it on.........

Just ordered bottom end shells. New water pump. New oil pump. And all the belts for the engine so it doesnt blow up on the day. Which mean it will LOL.

come on peps this is just like a car show but more fun.

I have a bet my car lasts the day my mates got a tenner saying its going to go bang within a hour.

I've just ordered some Tein coilovers, grooved discs and Endless pads to start with. My car needs some good brakes and handling to make up for what it lacks in speed :rolleyes: . Tyres may come in handy too

I wonder how many of us will make it back without a tow.

LENDS A TENNER

Will be towing mine there so if yours breaks and mine doesnt you can drive mine back and i will tow yours

I guess thats another Tenner on top of the engine re-build costs for me then....

Bring it on, We havin any other wagers guy's ??

Can sombody with a 9.50cc fezzy come as i am going to get wasted.

Who's got the mini cooper?

cheers evo ad, just booked, see you all there!

See you there spannerman if I don't see you before!

My mates coming too in his Evo III which is just undergoing a few tweeks to get 350BHP. It could end up turning into a nightmare for him . Might be another Evo engine rebuild for you soon...

How good is this going to be.

We need more CW peps coming 2 watch even if they arnt driving get a bbq on the go n things.

Yes I agree. We do need some more spectators from CW.

What tyres do you use Tupac, track or road tyres? I'm concerned with the track being very abrasive. Also is it a long high speed track? I priced some Yokohama track tyres up for the Skyline (235x40x18) which were £196 each but I got a generous offer off a mate who was going to give me his track tyres which would fit my Prelude and would work out a much cheaper day so i'm unsure which car to take now

I am just taking 2 sets of road tyres if you want grip take slicks if you want sideways take rubbish tyres. Because there isnt anythink to hit (armco wise) i go to learn how to get the backend out and dont think i would enjoy it as much if i took a fwd car but thats up to you.

The backstraight is were you will get the speed up. It all depends on how brave/daft you want to go and how confident you are in the car.

I reached speeds of alittle over 100mph on the back straight in the 325 but i have heard of a cossy pushing 140mph+.

Did sumone say "Mini!"

Then i might concider going!

Otherwise... i'd beat ure sorry ass!

Try guess why...

Guess you got fedup of the mini and beat it up then.

Makes all the problems i have with the 4i seam very small goodluck with it lund cos i think you will need it.

How's the 4i coming along?

Slowley but should be ready intime.

Just in the middle of taking out everything i dont need from inside the car backseats carpet ex.

Me and my mate are going to do the big ends nextweek then its just the breaks which i think justneed bleading then the cars more or less ready oil cahnge n stuff.

Does anybody know how many miles i need to run the bigend in for. Might have to drive the car to Elvington.

Scooby/evo ad hows your cars getting along.

Carnt wait for the 19th will be a good laugh.

I did order some Tein coilover for the Skyline and then changed my mind when I found out how hard they are meant to be for normal road use. Apparantly they're so hard that on a bumpy road with standing water it can cause the car to aquaplane, so with it being my everyday car i'm not getting them now so lost my deposit

Got some Toyo tyres for the Honda, brake discs, Megan Racing manifold, de-cat pipe, cat-back Blue Flame exhaust system and Ferodo DS2500 pads incase i decide to turn that into my track car instead, it probably makes more sense and also considering I can do more stuff to it than the Skyline. Handling will be better if it does rain as well.

Got a VTECH controller to go on next and a Mugen racing chip which will all take the power of the car to around 250-260BHP . Just going to look to see how much a throttle body conversion will be to take it to 300BHP

Mines all done matey, ready and waiting....

Slight oil leak on the Diff which i will do soon and i am looking at a bigger Turbo possibly

Looking good matey, looking good.......

Minimum 500 miles for the bearings mate, idealy 1,000 but 500 is better than i kick in the stots

Got sanwhiched about 6 years ago...no fault of my own!

ooo, ma neck!

just made a provisional booking. Yippe!!!!!!! fingers crossd my bm can stick it. Gonna take load a spares wid me n stay at my nans the days before. Yippee! add me 2 that list.

I hadnt put my harnesses on and i had started to shit myself, boy this thing is a weapon. I had forgot just how crazy and leathal the thing was, I carnt wait to get this Bitch on the track and thrash the fricken backside out of it.

Hoping for a very cold and dry day, cooler charge temperatures (Makes the car feel very very crisp) and i am running semi-slick's so the rain would not be good, but it would be serious fun

I am loving this, its like christmas come early i tell you.

wahoo. i cant wait just got my helmet waxed. had 2 stop as my mum caught me . wahoo.

me n the jon wrx team r negotiatin a deal 4 him 2 drive my german rusty beauty. cant wait to test what 171+ bhp can do. lukkin at the list o cars comin i think if it rains all o us shud stay at home. we will all go in circles.

pitty they dont time it tho at the track as the 325 n the 4i shud b pretty close. wud b interestin. annnny way just a few more sleeps untill the day. mmmmmmmmmmm im so exited.

p.s my nan lives round the corner from elvington so i got my breakky sorted, my aunty owns a pub 20 mins away so i can have a bit o dutch courage. te he

I am pretty sure we can arrange an Un-Official timer for our own use only, possibly one of our spectators could do the job for us ?

If it rains it will be so so funny

I have just ordered a suction mount for my Cam-Corder so i can video from inside the car so you could also view a lap of the track and i can stick it on the bonnet facing me so i can see myself crapping it as i go around the track

They are HOT on people timing so be very carefull if you want to time .

They arnt insured to allow timed runs.

Carnt wait myself should be such a good day.

I might be able to come and watch, see how my new job pans out first, but put me down provisionally:

Starting get the breaks ready seems to be only a bleed problem so thats saved me a couple of bob.

Think my cars got a LSD as a extra from the factory so thats a bonus.

Also thinking of stickering it up for the day as i wont be keeping it white when its finished could put number 69 on it.

Were is the best n cheapest place to get some made up??

How come your not taking your Impreza Jay?

Lol, I am fed up of blowing the engine up on the impreza so i have reduced the performance to nearly standard for reliability, i must be getting old or somit matey





Click here for full info ............

Im not bothered if i blow this one up as its allot easier and cheaper to to repair.....

Plus its light powerfull and rwd which means lots of fun.

Ok well that's answered my question

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PORSCHE-911-9...860QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I want this for the trackday.

may hav 2 pull out guys. c/v or bearin makin sum baaad noise n rad i bought is not rite 1. DOH!!! dunno if i will hav e funds 2 do it all!!!!!.

Shame mate, would have been a good day for you

Just sorted the breaks out not great but will do for now.

Car hasnt got an LSD as 1st though but thats not the end of the world.

Big ends getting done soon and should have another set of wheels off e-bay tonight thats 4 on the car and 7 spare think that might be enough.

Just waiting on a waterpump to take as a spare just incase.

What discs & pads are on it mate?

Standard disc's (vented) but bidding on fast road pads on e-bay.

Yes i've just got standard discs on the Prelude with Ferodo DS2500 all round. I've heard that you don't really need drilled or grooved discs round a track do you as long as fast road or race pads are used?

When i ran the 325 i used standard pads and disc's which worked fine just take a spare set just incase

Whats with all thye talk about brakes ??

They only slow you down, i want to talk about turbo's and boost levels, they make you go faster

I have the diff gasket now and LSD Oil, should be sorting this out next week, then i need to do some trial runs to get used to the car a little as its certantly a handfull. Carnt be spinning off on my first lap

The sprint course-I presume this is timed. Can you do both the sprint and the track or do you have to choose which one you do?

You can do both BUT they wont let you do a timed run on any course if you are caught timming you get banned from the track.

1 car at a time on the sprint course so you can play alot more.

STRIPPED AND READY TO PLAY (WELL ALMOST)

Big ends next then its playtime carnt wait still need more cruisewirral peps comming thought its FREE to get in and we would be back by 6pm so you wouldnt miss the party.

Yeah i'm really looking forward to this too. Just hope the weather stays dry for us all.

It's getting booked up quickly now and i've seen a potential few fast cars going on the track by the 'York Track Team'. It doesn't give any indication of what the cars are or the BHP but I reckon they're going to be quick and show us all up!

So come on then, what TOY have you got now ??

Well I thought my R33 was too slow for the track, the Prelude a bit too bland & boring so I went for a R32 GT Type M .

Very rare car and mind blowing even in standard form so just wait until I get my hands on it. You would have thought I would have learnt my lesson from my previous history with turbo cars .

The idea was to sell one of them but i'll probably end up keeping all 3 of them if i'm honest with myself.

Got a few bits ordered already for it so i'm just hoping it will all be ready on the day. Nothing really needs changing on it but it would be nice to have even more power but not so much the engine dies after the 1st lap.

would be nice to have even more power but not so much the engine dies after the 1st lap."

As long as you dont do something stupid like turn up the boost with no mods and put 100bhp jets off nos in then you'll be ok lol

No i'm not getting NOS on it otherwise it's another 3k for an engine rebuild when it blows.

Probably go with Apexi boost controller, larger intercooler, dump valve and water injection in the near future to keep things reliable. Not sure if I can get the boost controller or intercooler installed and set up before the track day so may have to revert back to the crude method of a bleed valve and uprated actuator for now. Tesco 99RON and a couple of tins of octane booster should also help.

I paid a deposit of £50, went to collect the car with the cash and then saw another one I liked better so paid another £950 deposit and collect it next Wednesday hopefully, after it's had it's SVA test, MOT and been registered:




It's got the fattest kit i've ever seen on a Skyline but needs the wheels changing. There are 2 different sets of wheels on it for some reason.

It's not going to be going round the track that quick though, I don't think i'm going to have time to do the brakes but it has got adjustable coilovers on it so should handle well (when I get used to it).

Trust me if you know how to gear down you dont need breaks told my mate today and he said the same thing what are you bringing and do you have any jobs going.

Carnt wait for this come on peps put your name down even if its to watch or be a passenger.

If we get enough i am getting a bbq going.

You'd better pay quick. I've just looked at the booking form and it's near enough fully booked! I've just paid now and can't wait to whoop the Noble

Who's still going?

Im deffo up for it still.

I will pay today as long as i have one other confirmed car going, dont fancy going on my todd as i havnt done an official trackday for many many moons now.

U paying Ad ?

I will go as an observer. Not to go on the track, as my car is not really suited to it yet...

I've already paid this morning. I know spannerman (mark) is also confirmed in his Lotus so that's 2 of us paid so far.

Gonna feel slightly intimidated by the Noble though.

could i feel anyslower

Paid by cheque just waiting to be comfirmed.

RIGHT HERE IS WERE I UPSET YOU ALL

In order to get there sort the cars and get into the breifing we meet at the rock at 6am

YES THATS 6AM SORRY

It takes about 2hours ish and some of us are towing plus if some of you havent been before i know the way.

Let us know if you are traveling down with us so we dont have to wait.

Would be more fun in a convoy.

Breifing starts at 9am i think and track opens soon after.

Dont forget you driving licence (must be a photo one)


Meeting at the rock.

TUPAC


Meeting there.

OH FORGOT TO SAY

Spoke with sombody (javelin) on weds and you can use a 2nd car if your one blows up you just have to let them know.

Mates taking his 740 just incase we need to spank that if my car dies.

Do you really have to take a photo license? It's just that I haven't got a photo one, only a paper one!!!!!! Could be a slight problem for me that?????

Ok panic over. I phoned Javelin and my license is alright. You can use the old paper ones as well as the photo ID ones.

PHEW thankgod for that evo you meeting at the rock.

Picked up my lowered springs today just neeed to put them on now carnt wait.

Also got a full front break set bonnet 4 lowered springs and a bonnet for £30 BARGIN

Not sure about meeting at the Rock yet, may head up on the Friday night and stay over somewhere. 6 in the morning justs sound too early for me but i'll let you know nearer the time.

Looks like you'll have an advantage over me with the suspension, i'm only running standard on the Prelude with slicks. The suspension needs lowering but i've heard nasty tales of the 4ws going wrong when it's lowered and the handling being affected on high speed corners. I heard that there may be an Arial Atom coming on the track too....

Booked a Skyline on the track too just incase something does go wrong with the Lude.

Are you still coming Jay. You can't buy a car like that and not take it around the track yer pussy. Are you scared of getting beat by the Arial Atom or the Noble

Here is a list of whats comming and who has booked some nice cars going think i will race em all.

My booking is confirmed and should have the car backtoday so going to spend the week running it in ready for sat.

Carnt wait christmas has come early.

Just phoned the fella about my car STILL HASNT DONE IT getting alittle now need the car back so i can run it in and lower it what an arse had the car since thursday.

Its not that hard to change bigend shells if i had a engine lift would of done it myself.

Just missed out on rs500 wheels and slicks on ebay gutted.

When did he say you're getting it back mate?

My Honda's all ready now. Done the brakes all round and got some slicks on it so i'm praying it doesn't rain.

The Skyline's already got coilovers on it and just waiting on some front brake pads, discs & tyres which should all be here by Thursday. It's probably going to have to run more or less standard boost cause there's no time to get a boost controller fitted, only a bleed valve. Will be taking it very slow around the track in it cause I don't want a 3k bill at the end of the day for a new engine.

Yeah, im coming matey, going to phone up tom and pay by card.

I have the trailer booked n stuff :cheers:

Car didnt get touched by the garage that was doing it to many problems going on to say i wasnt happy would be an understatment.

Not to fear Dazza to the rescue he has been working on the car for me today so i hope this time tomora night it will be done and ready to go.

Big thanks to Dazza for all his help cheers mate

Then its just about the finishing touches to make it look alittle better on the eye.

They have taken my details and they are going to phone me if anyone cancels so i can join in.

This just about sums up my luck recently

GUTTED MATE HOPE SOMBODY CANCELS.

Ill turn up on the day for this. Its on the way home so may pop in to have a peek. Would not mind getting the clio on a track as it suits it,tho as its booked ill see on the day when we arrive. Most tracks have had spare places on the morning so not as bad as it all seams, firms sometimes cant make it etc..
