I will be posting updates, live results, videos, photos, testing etc on there very frequently and main updates, videos, photos on here.

Followiing an ongoing relationship with Bren and the team at Apex we have got together and given the car the full BC treatment for competing within Time Attack pro class in 2011. This is a great move from my point of view and brings a much better level of support than I have ever had and hopefully even better chance of doing well within the ever competitive pro class. I am looking forward to working closely with the guys there over this season and getting some great results for the team :thumb:

The car will be changing 'a little' from last year's spec but this was it at Cadwell late last year..

Lots more to follow

Car gets better every season Duncan. Credit to you and all the guys who chip in.

but i don't like them mirrors but for racing they're load better then std ones
aerodynamics are better with them little ones

When did you switch to a gt35r ? What do you think of it. I'm suprised your still getting away with that twin plate

Penguins bollox cool infact

Good luck for the season

1 word .cool
good luck for the season

awsome mate ... did you the full under tray fot it?

Looking forward to seeing it develop Duncan, good luck for the season

Small update:

- Diffuser design done .... (sorry no pics) - hopefully it will work well and will be made in time for testing in march (pretty please). Should, at the very least, look a million times better than the homebrew prototype creation LOL

- turbo ordered and should be arriving next week. Nice shiney GT35/82 which should give a respectable power increase over current figures

Lots more jobs to do and hopefully get the stickers finished today so that I can post some pics of the whole car

i wondered who stole my sons bike mirrors lol nice motor duncan

Looks class, can't wait for more updates

.82 exhaust

The V could have sold ten times over - (pre) sold it ages ago mate sorry

turbo almost on and pipework almost done by Gaz

lookin good duncan.. when are you gonna clean those wheels

they are the old wheels and they are getting re-powder coated before the season starts.

might give them a once over with some vht paint though just to make em look nice

Looking like a TA car should!!

Loving the new lightweight turbo fixings

Probably the only time I can say my engine bay looks similar to Duncans

a bit of progress:

got the car back last night from GR Performance after they had expertly made a rotated kit for it - cheers Daz :thumb:

So had a few things on the to do list for today

Welding .. if you can call it that

Support brackets for the rear spoiler as I now have a single skin fibre glass boot lid from ABW:

Almost finished (now painted)
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Aerocatches have been fitted to the boot lid but it was too dark to take pics of them. The spoiler mounts will come up through the boot lid to mount the spoiler onto.

see you've left the gap wide enough to get the shopping in!

are you running the BC wheels this season or back to your old ones fitted in the pic?
