So first track day happened haha.
Was at Cadwell Park yesterday absolutely loved it!!!! but the weather was god awful, pissed down the entire time.
Didn't get to many photos due to the rain but ill add the ones i did get. hopefully get some more from the photos that were taken by the track photographer.
Love the track though The run through The Mountain, Hall Bends and then onto the hairpin was amazing.
Unfortunately witnessed someone in a Toyota GT86 spin out and hit into the sidewall on the straight from Barn to Coppice which was not a nice sight in the rear view mirror thankfully the guy was all ok, the car on the other hand not so much.
All good with the LCR thought no problems after its first time on track and getting driven hard which was a relief, it was brilliant through the corners but needs a bit more a punch on some of the straights

I love Caldwell, not been yet this year. The track is technical, fast and I bet you had fun!
I was told if you’re not pushing 100 through Coppice your cars not quick haha.. always done around 80-85mph, last time with the camber set up and AD08’s I was just over 100! Always want a bit more though on the straights like you’ve said.
Probably gonna do an evening session there soon!

Yea it was such a good day really enjoyed it.
Yea that makes sense i was getting around 85mph to 90mph so i guess it wouldnt have to much problem getting to 100mph in the dry (fingers crossed)
Ahhh brilliant are you close by to Cadwell then?
Cadwell is a 2 1/2 hour drive for me but still worth it! I do the evening sessions for £79
Ahhh ok, its about 3 hrs from me, ill defiantly be making the trip up there again. that really cheap aswell, what time does the evening session start and finish?

Also replaced the exhaust system of the turbo back which is much better now.
I ended up getting a Toyo downpipe and de-cat and then a Milltek mid section and back box.
Defiantly sounds alot better and has a much better flow now
Removing the stock one was such a pain in the ass tho, i ended up having to cut some of it out haha
Fitting the new downpipe was also abit of a pain as there not alot of space back there but it got done

Hi all,
So the wheel are finished, all painted etc.
Next thing to do is get the tires refitted, however iv spoken to my local tire place and they said that i should wait 2/3 weeks before refitting the tires.
Anyone got any advise as i really need to get them back on asap because i need to move the LCR haha.

Paint does need time to cure through fully but when I've had tyres refurbed they normally leave them a day then fit the tyres and return them.
So i just went for it haha, all went well with no issues the guys where great and really careful which is good
Took a quick couple of photos, will put some more up once there fitted
