[James Vette]

Such a badass build you must be very proud.

 

[Oneball]

Testing the Mini today

Corvette here too

 

[kentvette]

I just love that Mini! Sooo many memories!

Tim, it looks like you are at Snetterton, were you there on a track day with the Mini a few months ago?

No, just today. Was an open test day and my mate lives down the road. Just need to get back to being comfortable driving.

That's good then, I was just thinking that there was a Mini there when my son and I were on a track day and I would be pretty annoyed if I'd missed the chance to have a chat.

Are you down that way? I might go there to test the Vette when it’s ready

 

[johng]

I'm in Essex, but I'd be happy to drive there to see your Vette.

Rear window tang now replaced and the window is in.

Got the fit of the spoiler right now, need to make up the brake cooling ducting and then I can paint it.

 

[James Vette]

Absolutely badass you must be very proud!

Pretty good, found a couple of setup issues the day before and it’s pretty much on the money now. I always do everything myself but end of 2019, I got a pro to setup the suspension and it was bollocks. Anti roll bar was on the cock, corner weights were out and too much toe in at the rear. Moral here is do it yourself.

Check this out for corner weights



There was a bloke with an AM Vulcan there, they even had their own refrigerated drinks cabinet

 

[johng]

I take it you were quicker than the Vulcan!

Diff cooler and pump now mounted and plumbed in
