I'm looking to go stage 2+ eventually but I think I should get more supporting mods to go with it first. Anything you would suggest? Or do you know of anything for sale? Thanks Allan

Always worth checking the car parts section to save a few quid  :happy2:

There aren't many mods I haven't done or tried now so welcome to drop me a message if you want any thoughts on anything  :happy2:

Current spec list is on page 1  :wink:

I had WALK. Felt a nice improvement but the bushes perished, I've since swapped to the superpro version that is better made IMO

Keeping a close eye on my WALK after your experience mate, will be getting the SuperPro Consoles for sure if my WALK goes the way of the dodo!;)

Are you going race-car? buckets, roll cage etc? Surely you need these before going Lighter glass? Oh and it needs to be certain thickness if you're worried about FIA approved mods...

Will be very Mr P esque this time next year  :innocent:  With probably a few less ponies.

The poly carbonate could save a fair bit of weight though and lower the centre of gravity.

Mike, please don't take this a wrong way, but have you considered paying for some track training before going so far on spending to convert your car to a trackday car? Remapping the brain is invaluable.
