Hi Geoff,
Vera and I did not do many trackdays in the UK but we will never forget meeting you at Le Sept, etc. Hope all is well out there and that the new interests are as fun as sevening was!
If you have adjustable shock absorbers on the Seven then set them to soft. I feel a distinct difference in little shakes of my Tiguan when towing between the Caterham set to rock hard or not.
Siva ... what rims do you have? I always put 14" on my car with a soft sidewall tire to overcome this problem.
To be honest I have decided to stop going to the MOT and unregister the car for the road. It now has 15 years, 130000km and I dont want to go through the hassle anymore ... trackdays here I come 😬 😬
Roger, does he have a supersport engine or not? Believe my 1.6SS had a 7600rpm rev limit while still feeling strong. On the standard 1.6 you feel the torque peak well before the rev limit so you naturally shift before it kicks in ... Believe that to be about 6.5k
I always just ask for a 53030...whatever brand. Last time I paid 50£, lasted for 3 years without any problems until I discharged it 100%, that killed it.
Anthony, not to have missed out I would have gone for the pick the other ones up 4h away or I would have bought any tire I could find that fitted my rims. Having some not so sticky tires would have been a revelation 😬
