Is that an ED35 seat belt the Dogs got on :signLOL:

Looking so cool Dan!!
Your Team Dynamics look better than others I've seen. What spec and offset are they? Are the centre caps something special?
Sorry for the numpty questions, but I just love the look of them and am seriously thinking of a similar set up for my motor (if you don't mind of course

Thanks mate, they're Matt Black 18x8j ET45 with the centre caps they all come with. I think that the stud kit and being Matt not Gloss helps the caliper and other accents pop more and looks better overall. I don't own the look lol I'd be flattered if someone liked mine enough to to copy. Knowing me I'll have new wheels soon anyways :innocent:

Awesome Dan. Thanks a million for that. Pretty set on these as the new wheels for my motor :driver:

So ive been waiting for the track day pics to come through before updating but they took longer than I was expecting.
Was an awesome day, early start which I hate and damn cold but that's about the only reason I had to complain all day. Was beautiful and clear literally the whole day and by the time lunch was over the track was absolutely perfect for tyres and turbos alike.
The Michelin PS4's are a great road tyre and although they still had plenty of grip on the track they really were let down by poor feedback and soft sidewalls. They definitely feel a bit numb and I was guessing corner speeds for the first couple of sessions but they came to life a bit with some temperature and are still a great all round tyre but I do want something more hardcore for the next day out.
Overall the car performed very well with zero issues, it definitely needs stiffening up a bit and a front ARB to bring it into line. It ate the front brake pads very quickly though and the discs are now discoloured :innocent: but the yellowstuffs were always a cheap pad so I'm not surprised.
Cannot wait for the next one.
A short video Jay took for me. Please ignore the embarrassing chatter and my fat face in the stupid helmet. This was the second session and I was starting to build some confidence and push harder which lead to it being quite messy at times but a lot of fun. The beauty of Bedford is almost endless run off so you can just go mental with no fear.
