Krzys' 2002 Nighthawk Black Track EP3 Type R - Dave

So at the weekend Stef and I did the prep work needed to get Dave ready for our first track day of 2017!

Oil & Filter change.
Replace rear discs & pads
Replace split air intake pipe
Replace split engine mount
Strip rear interior











































 
Rockingham was great fun at the weekend, worth the 0345 alarm!

Dave completed 85 laps of the track all in without fault, used a tank of fuel and 3/4 of another before we called it a day.

We were struggling a bit for grip, the tyres kept overheating which I think was because of the speed we were taking the banked curve at!

Anyway, a few photos from the day, videos will follow once I've sorted and uploaded them.



































 
Nice. I'm looking forward to see if I can do it without lifting at Mimms.
 
£125 + VAT a corner, not too bad. may look at a set when my AD08R and RS-R's are knackered.
 
Finally got the track videos uploaded! There's a lot of limiter action in the first session or so as there was so little grip out of the slow corners until we got our heads in gear and worked around it!

Can't watch the vids at work but how was the track time at Japfest?

It was alright, the first half of my second session was utter chaos! Caught up to the second pack of cars before they had completed their sighting lap and I was out with the MCR Evo which decided it was going past as close as possible to the side of the car which frightened the misses :lol:

It was good fun though!
