Thanks mate got better as the day went on.. Got very lucky could have been very bad, i tryed to slow down with the gears and handbrake going into quarry and back wheels locked and violentky fired me left towards the barrier, lucky it slid back the opposite way and just kissed the tyre wall with the back end.. Fixed the brakes was going to go back out but thought ill leave it! Everythings straight and no panels out of place and all new parts should bolt straight up, luckily didnt hit the rear quarter
Did you get anyother pics mate

Clutchmasters fx725 twin disc with the rigid race discs, and yeah its not uncommon with southbend

How do you find the clutch pedal feel, would it be heavy like really heavy or not so heavy, did you notice a big differnce between it and your southbend ?
Hey looks like you had a close call, glad to hear there is not to much damage and your ok too matey... Just means more time off the road to get it all sorted now, :fighting: less play time...
And did someone mention carbon boot, looks like that could me next :grin:
Hope you get it all sorted soon !

its soft, but very snappy and seems to take a lot of revs to get the car moving even with the steel flywheel, couldnt live with it in a everyday car
it will make your car sound knackered and make all sorts of whines and squeeks.. but leagues ahead of the southbend in terms of gear shift its very aggressive on up and down shifts and instant..
the race version has rigid discs, the street version is supposed to be much more usable as its sprung but the plates wont last as long
Thanks for the kind words :happy2: could have come out much worse
