Oh hello!
I went to Oldschool Nationals.
Track day on the Friday was awesome.
Heres a few snaps. I hope the owners of the photos dont mind me using them here.
Now those of you with a keen eye will notice that somethings missing off the car in the picture above.
Two of the SSR wheel caps decided that they didnt want to hang on anymore. After noticing that the caps were missing in the pits, I pulled the other two caps off. Strangley they came off very easily. So after punting the car around the track, the brakes AND wheels had gotten hot enough to soften the plastic of the caps.
So saddened with my loss I ordered some more caps through Import Monster (great service). I got some longer caps.
Now half the reason that the caps came off is the locating tabs on the caps NEVER engaged in the slots in the wheel.
Soo thats dumb. Good one SSR. Muppets.
Now Karl (BDA780) is a dab hand at the 3D printing. So armed with one of the original caps he drew up the cap (with 5mm locating tabs) and knocked some out on the printer.
I'll get them chromed and stickers made at some stage.
Oh, heres some more pictures of the car.
