Red and black is the shizzle.

I am biased but it looks the dogs.

I really am being pulled to doing an out and out track/fast road car.

Like this and Neils candy white.

It's not helping.

Pleasantly surprised with them Alex, the sidewall is pretty stiff and they give good grip off the line and seams pretty progressive before giving up  :happy2:

It was like Xmas this morning at Pound Towers  :signLOL: :signLOL:

Look what just arrived  :jumping: :jumpmove: :jumping: :jumpmove:

First up a pair of these Sparco Seat, designed for the "larger racer"  :grin:



And some harness's to keep me in place  :driver:



Bring on the camber.



No more missing fog grills and metal tow hooks.



And finally a bit of weight saving with a racing battery and the parts to relocated it to the boot.



Should keep me busy for a while  :smiley:
