Well after 2 races with the once loved Scirocco and tyre issue beyond solving, the decision was taken and piggy bank raided to try and source a new car for the remainder of the TORA TCC Season.

After the Nurb Short, i didnt bother to repair the Scirocco and flogged any decent parts on ebay Laughing

Luckily any parts worth value raised some much needed funds to put towards the new machine.

My Silverline Chevrolet Cobalt SS.........

Im not normally one for fantasy car reports but you gotta make it a little interesting Razz

well done mate cant wait to see it on the circuit, good luck Smile

Very nice, but I must say if Silverline put as much money into their tools than they do to sponsorship I would buy them. I have rounded more Silverline spanners and sockets than I have had hot meals jocolor

.

Great job on the paint though. Looks really good.

dido on the silver line tools, drill bits made of butter, spanners that at so soft they melt in the sun, but they do have a sense of humour putting the logo upside down on Plato's car when he rolled it.

by MAJ0R LAZER Sat 23 Mar 2013 - 16:20

Thanks guys. I had a set of wratchet spanners that must have lasted less than 6 months, luckily my company paid for them.

what times you pulling on silver stone?

by MAJ0R LAZER Tue 26 Mar 2013 - 12:41

Early 30s with a few odd 29s, still have a quite a bit of tuning to do as I've only really balanced the springs with aero set to where I like it.

Hopefully ill have Thursday evening to really get on with it.

by PLOW tubbi Tue 26 Mar 2013 - 13:01

send me a copy of the car and I'll have a fiddle with it.

Cobalt is one quick car, I think I still have a tune I was testing before we chose the Civic Si was hitting 28's in it. Send me a FR and I will gift it over to you.

Here's my attempts. Smile

Two different methods. Action shot going through Bridge, and an attempt at an artistic shot... not sure if it works or not though Embarassed

I have to say, I definitely enjoyed this weeks racing more than the previous ones, particularly since there were a few more BMW's in my lobby to help try and fend off the FWD armada. Some good racing Blackbird.

The cars look so fantastic this season cheers
