Methinks building a tyre rack from aluminium is not wise. This is due to aluminium having a tendency to fatigue and break with no warning. Steel is a lot stronger and gives a warning usually.

Re: charlie's na6
So does this imply that the engine is no longer being parted out?
My memories of Norwell Park are a little different to yours, however I did enjoy the track layout and it was a hell of a lot of fun!

Still for sale at the right price. It's a wicked track. Really technical to which great. Exiting the back sweeper at the top of 5th was the best section

Re: charlie's na6
Time for a decent update:
So last friday, two days before the track day we were in a mad rush to get the fuel system re done after another Deatschwerks pump shat itself. We decided to re do the fuel system there and then as well. Due to the flyin miata big fuel kit places the Adjustable reg just below the fuel tank at the back and is a returnless fuel setup, we think that this could be causing the pumps to over work and cause issues. So we swapped in a Walbro 255lph and moved the reg up to the engine bay and ran the lines so its a proper return system.
Put it on the dyno to make sure everything was running sweet and it was . Put all the aero back on that after noon and got ready for the track day.
Track day was awesome.. Car ran perfect the whole day and never had any issues. The new splitter worked really good giving me some good front end grip on the high speed corners. Went on the skid pan and had a ball just as much as i did on the track. Gonna keep it this way till the next track day in a few weeks time
Heres a bunch of pics i found.. there will be more to come though.
