American drag times for z's with mod list
There are a couple of things about our american friends that you need to keep in mind...................... Clocks run slower in the US. So when you stop the clock at 10secs in the states 12 seconds have elapsed over here. The 1/4 mile is actually shorter in the US Americans measure horsepower using the pony not a horse...The pony is less powerful than a horse so 100 bpp (brake pony power) is actually 80bhp UK style. Then it all makes sense:yes: :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin:

Wheel fitment
I beg to differ. It will depend on the style/construction of the wheel at the back and what size brakes you are running. I have seen ET 38s that just dont fit. Caveat emptor and all that:kiss:

Wheel fitment
front offset is poor. Will need spacers IMO Rear tyre size is just wrong. Whether its just written wrong or it is actually wrong . You need to find out .

wtf!!! car wont start? :(
All fuel pumps make some noise when running. Most of you wont hear it cos the engine noise drowns it out and your cars are fully trimmed.. It is a buzzing type noise. An excessively noisy pump might indicate that itas on its way out.... BUT they are normally very robust.

Groover if fully FIA compliant!!!
i think any helmet is OK. I will look closely at the info I have tho. Your timing is fine. We have to sign on and be at the briefing at 8.40.am. Im fortunate to have sat in with two of the fastest cars on this forum. Bobgenie and Jaffa. As a passenger I have found it re assuring to be well belted up in a proper seat. The seat and belts are "borrowed" from my 240Z rally car project as it wont be ready this year. Im looking forward to the whole day out too. .

Federal 595 RS-RTrack Day tyres???
Yep I know all about the limitations i simply cant run to a full set of 888s so I have bought these as an alternative. They will be more than adequate for my modest power and driving skills. i just wanted to see if anyone had actually used them on the track?

Cheap platinum plugs.NA spec
Nice to find something for an NA thats cheaper than its TT equivalent for once. Usually its the other way round. You know the story..... "Well sir its not a UK model . we will have to order these specially for you.":smash: Or... even worse...... " Im sorry sir its not a UK listed car so we cant find anything about it in our lists":headvswal

Federal 595 RS-RTrack Day tyres???
Anyone got any driving experience on these? On the road?? On the track?? PS... I dont mean has yer mate in the pub said he once knew a bloke with these fitted to a Corsa etc etc And I dont mean have you read a review where someone said they once knew a bloke who did 10000 laps of the Nurbergring on them etc etc:glare: You get my drift???:biggrin:

new clutch :-(
without a ramp its a heavy job to do. help required IMO. Not technically demanding but physically so. Part exhaust or all may need to be removed/dropped. Getting prop off is fun too lying on yer back. Getting gearbox off not too bad. access to top bolts needs about 1M extension bar and wobble socket Getting box back up with the new clutch in can be stressful!! All IMO

Or find a place that can re line a friction disc. ultimately thats all you need to last for a bit.

front tyres
Assuming you have a sensible offset wheel then yes is the answer.
