Mark,

Looks well stuck to the road.

What tyres and sizes are you using?

Any more thoughts of bringing it up to the Pod in july?

Kevin.

Thanks guys

Car is awesome and very fast on the track, Its taken a long time and still a few issues to resolve.

Using Toyo R888 tyres 205/50/15 front and 235/50/15 rear. With these tyres 0-60 is about 4 secs.
Speedo goes off the scale down the Hangar straight 140mph+
Im actually building another MGB as a dedicated track car, its a roadster and will have an aero screen and downforce, hopefully weighing in at sub 850kg with 320bhp. So far all welding done, front and rear suspension sorted. Its gonna be another couple of years before she's ready.

Kevin looks like I will be coming to the Pod in July if thats OK

Cheers
Mark

Well done Mark!!
She's looking good...

Make sure you put your name down for a pit pass for the BIG V8 Forum Day Out on 12th July in the Events section mate.

There will be at least 35 MG Owners Club folk on site who will want to drool over your car

The MGOC Club Mag Editor will be on site as photographer for the day as well. So you may well end up in the MGOC monthly mag.
