Performance Exhaust


In preparation for our next race event at Brands Hatch we finally got around to replacing the standard exhaust back-box with a Cargraphic sports exhaust (ebay bargain).  Most of the bolts on the original exhaust were rusted so it took several hours to remove.
The performance exhaust turned out to only be a few KG's lighter than the stock exhaust so we will need to look elsewhere for the weight savings we need to make.
Th new exhaust was fitted with new clamps and stainless bolts all round and allows the engine to rev more freely.  It is definately much louder and will provide a useful BHP & Torque increase.
We also replaced and re-wired the electrical cut-off pull switch.  The pull handle was a poor qualifty one and cutting the fuel-pump allowed the engine to run-on for a few seconds. It is now wired into the DME fuse (C1) and kills the engine instantly.

Snetterton Race on Motors TV

The Snetterton race event was filmed and is being shown free-to-air on Friday 18th May @ 5:50pm on Motors TV UK (Sky Ch 413).

All of the cars have bright green Logson Group windscreen banners which advertise the title sponsor of the series. This sponsorship helps pay for the filming, production and TV air-time.
A full TV schedule for the season is here. The race coverage is also put on the GoRacingTV youtube channel a few weeks after being shown on Motors TV.
