It's looks so much quicker and easier making moulds when it's just a few pics and it's done.

Good idea to mould the whole inside. Be like Oem, but lighter. You going to do a small rear window? Or no window?

You're not wrong there. Many, many hours and steps.

Yes, it will have a rear window...but not quite as large as the OEM NC glass.

Danny

...a bit more tune tweaking before some more seat time. :twisted:

....of course weather and work pending Mark...hopefully this Thursday afternoon at QR. If not, probably not until May!

Cheers,

When in May? I really want to hear it live but work keeps my aspirations and expectations aimed low

Thursday 14th May - Time Attack Round 3 @ QR
Monday 25th May - MX-5 Club of Qld @ QR
Saturday 30th May - Jap Nats @ QR

Had a short but successful afternoon of testing at QR on Thursday.

Looking forward to more seat time in May.

A few short videos from the GoPro...

Cheers,

Hi James, I didn't do any timed laps last Thursday as I was bedding in new brake pads and adjusting F/R bias...and the circuit had plenty of standing water on the race line from the night before's downpour.

I'm looking forward to doing some more timed laps in May.

Cheers,
Danny
