As some of you are aware i recently purchased ammo's old lude project CBA with the intentions of turning it into a road legal track car and keep my other BB4 as my daily driver.
I picked the car up 2 weeks ago for £500 and im very happy with it drives really well and the bodywork is in better nick than my black one.
Ammo also chucked in a few parts he never got round to using and some standard 15's.
Ive got my first track day booked for the 5th July at Castle Coombe its an open pit lane day, i have never driven on a track before and im heading up with a mate of mine and some of his friends that go regulary to tack days. they are in 2 e46 330 and i think 2 mr2's we have a transporter with a trailer so the first to break down gets the trailer home

Heres how she stands when i bought her i did a bit of work on her in the last couple of days so ill get a few pics today to update

and the view outside my house

You'll love combe mate, wish I could join you. Just keep the session short. 15mins on track is like a gym session whilst doin math equations ha plus the car starts "goin off", brakes are fading, oils hot and tyres start to cook.

Have you got a incar camera?

Good luck with the car. Like Pete says, keep the sessions short.

Nice one, yeah Combe is a great track but agree completely about taking it easy especially your first time. Can't wait to come out and join you with mine soon.

Looking forward to hearing how the car develops.

I recommend getting the tracking done for
Track use. A bit of toe out front & rear will
make a big difference.

Some people just can't make a showcar for the track

So they just buy two !
Well done mate, keep it up and turn it into a beast !
How are you gonna pay for two cars keeping them on the road ?

i get the impression you really wanted to cain this car but didnt get the chance lol

Heres some of the parts ammo chucked in for me

he also chucked in a second sunroof skin as the 1 fitted was a bit rusty

ive also removed my toe hook and toe strap from my black car as its not gonna see the track so seems the right thing to do

heres the engine bay at the moment i also noticed that i need a new radiator so that will be done before the track day

i also began the strip out in the last hour of work

next ill be taking the seats out and removing the carpets i think ill be looing the door panels too shortly. The sunroof motor assembly will also be out soon as well as the air con gear behind the dash.
hopefully report back later with some more info
