Title: Building a car for next year.
Post by: Neilos on February 23, 2011, 19:22:53
Hello everyone. Just joined the forum so greetings to you all. The grand plan is to be racing next year. Eye is on the 24 hour, but sprint races will be good as well. I have 89 dolly sitting outside waiting for the magic touch of a welder. Just looking for advice on getting the car prepared for racing. Has anyone put on line any pictures guides for doing the job? Looking forward to getting on the grid with you lot next year!

Welcome to the club - (don't forget to join) Where abouts are you I am sure someone will not be far away for you to look at a race car close up - or even better come along and see us all at the race circuits

Hi, I'm in Leicestershire. Will definately get to some races ( annoyingly not around for silverstone which is nearest), would even volunteer my services as a tea boy/baldrick ( i do know how a spanner works as well) to get some behind the scenes info from any team that that can accommodate?

hi, we're based in Market Harborough and Wellingborough. Free feel to get in touch if you want any advice. More than welcome to have a look at the race cars we have got. Currently building another for economy class.

Thanks

Rich

Anybody know where are the other good places to get hold of a roll cage? Safety devices say they can't do it. Or do I need to speak to the right person?

You could try

Don't know if they do 2CV ones though.

There are a few home-made ones around too.
