  1. Did you try Competition Car Insurance in the end?
  2. Thats brilliant, dont see enough of that these days.
  3. Here you go mate, http://whifbitzperformancetuning.co.uk/toyota-supra-supra-fuel-parts-sard-p-1469.html
  4. I'm pretty sure the 4" dp/mp I sell with my turbo kit will fit with an HKS manifold if you need one.
  5. I can have an open, non divided manifold made if needed yep.
  6. Tried that, they didn't want to know.
  7. Do you work for Brands Hatch?! You often see race cars bottoming out on the track, its not uncommon.
  8. Nutters! My exhaust will be rubbing even more then!
  9. Actually when they radioed into the control tower he did say I had a titanium skid plate instead of the exhaust rubbing, they came back saying thats not allowed. Its going back to the company that made it to be a. repaired as its worn out and b. to be mounted higher up.
  10. I'd like to but it makes life harder, I drove the car there yesterday and there's no room for a spare set of wheels. It would be ok if I was towing it there and back of course.
  11. Yeah, my point exactly, your not allowed to have a noisy car on track and now this.
  12. Thats what I'm going to do today, argue my point and see what happens.
  13. Have you tried a little help with a hammer to see if it goes on? They normally just push on the dowels though.
  14. I didn't really get the chance unfortunately, did about 8 laps in total and most of that was just getting into the groove.

  16. Took a few pics of my car in its latest stickerless(more or less) guise, looks so much better than before in my eyes. Needs a good polish up though:
  17. Yes, everywhere I've been with it in its current titanium guise. Oulton Park, Knockhill, Snetterton, Brands Hatch previously, Cadwell Park. The marshalls at Cadwell thought it was an excellent sight in fact!
  18. Went to Brands Hatch for an evening track day tonight and I got black flagged because my exhaust scraped over the bumpy bits of the circuit. They gave me one chance to fix it which I tried by tieing it up slightly higher which didn't really help and told me to go home. My exhaust has been like this for 2 years with numerous track work around the country and its never even been mentioned before let alone this! There reason for not letting me run was because they've just had the track resurfaced and I will wear it out! My reply was "why the hell didn't you have the bumps smoothed out while you were at it"! Plus it was dangerous apparently for cars coming up behind me, again my reply was "there wont be any cars coming up behind, my car is the fastest here by a mile"! So a total waste of £140, plus other expenses, I'm going to send the organisers a stinky letter. Properly peed off about it.
