Just a we rambell as im board in work lol. Are last track day (half track day 1230 to 5) was really good. The mods from the last track day were ( t2w4 lsd box, ps removed, battery in boot, cf bonnet) the track was an old airfield in a place called ballykelly. Was just a big triangel with a chicane was good fun. Probly doing around 130 on back straight ( off the clock and got into 5 for few seconds) we were on road tyres just so not :P alot of grip plus had small showers on and off so some bits nice and slippy :P . As far as the ps removeal, once ur used to the fell of it i thought was great although is a bit of move ment in the wheel before u turn cant remember if that was there before but still good. The box seemed strong and the lsd was really good could feel working when u needed it. Shifted good to with the short shift addappter on her 2 allthough i missed 5 a few times (mybe to do with the few magners i had :roll: ) the ground was crap it went from tarmac to ceament to ceament tarmac and grass in one lol

Loss of vtec at high conering speeds is due to oil starvation and can be cured by fitting a baffled sump, if I recall correctly from reading on here?

It could be that oil pressure has not yet returned to a suitable amount.

I think it was due to oil starvation. Mine used to do it out of tight corners until I fitted the baffled
sump.
