    I struggle with paddock it's getting it stopped and then turning in Tom Chilton was there last time and came over to complement the car I chew his hand off for some pointers helped but still could be a lot faster down there.

    See how late the Btcc cars brake

      If that other car wasn't there on the exit of Clarke curve Dale would have been wider and a lot faster!

        Ha. Looks like a Sunday drive. Compare that to this year lap round the Indy from Ingram, his car appears all over the place. No doubt braking last minute is the way forward but it takes time to gain that confidence

              Best way I know to make a racecar faster. Work on the spacer. The one that fills the gap between the steering wheel & seatback.

                    Engine position is always going to be an issue with an S2/quattro. Even with the S1, Audi never managed to overcome physics when compared to the Peugeots and Lancias, although they can't be accused of not trying! It's just a huge amount of weight in front of the axle, which is going to dull the turn-in and cornering

                    Can you get a more modern quattro gearbox in there, with the flywheel mounted behind the front diff? Got to be worth a few inches of engine movement rearwards?

                      I think chef is close to 50/50 weight distribution now with the tube front end

                        Yeah engine came back a lot corner weights are good it's just the poor shaft angles you have to live with.

                        I think I would rather build something else like a RS5 or R8 rather than keep throwing money at this one

                          Engine is back in. New front fluid damper from Isam and the dry sump belt moved to the outer side of the timing belt. New V belt for the Alternator and a full set of new braided lines front to back. Fired it for the first time the other day and runs like a train.

                          Minor changes to the front removable frame and a belt guard for the dry sump belt.
                          Thanks to JP for getting it all machined, balanced and checked for me look forward to a nose around his new workshop!
