ended up buying 2 new metro sized flanges to move the disc away from the hub,
i figured since the flanges have a built in bearing surface and are only £35 a side, new ones would be beneficial

a nice bit of CAD for the caliper mounts

and also since my fuel system is now in, and a majority of the wiring, i spent today checking things over and firing it up
its been sat for 6 months but believe it or not the engine did 2 rotations and fired straight up even on a flat map lol, first time with my modified cas sensor, first time with COPs too.. i did a little tweeking

Hahaaha

I think i would have to fit a clubby front to go road legal, with driveshafts and boost pipes there is no where for the exhaust to go
I think with a top mount manifold i could send the down pipe over the drivers front wheel and out the a panel for road use / mot

What the mind can conceive the mini can achieve
MITP 2012 17.01 seconds 1/4 mile against "The Don"
MITP 2013 16.83 seconds 1/4 mile

The second one was plan b if i couldnt make it fit in a std length round nose but as i reasoned the 10s would look pathetic in those arches it never went further than browsing at them
Tbh im having a little pause on this mini while i play the situations over, i may well go with that big fat clubby front now i have wheels that will fit the arches

The other wouldnt solve my space issue
I do like this one though
Who else likes the clubby? Would have to have monster rear arches too though

Love clubbys but think for surprise factor it needs to be roundnose (just cos average joe in the stands or in the lane next to ya sees that as a mini, might not recolgnise clubby especially with big fat arches) i understand trying to shoehorn it all in ? But would a extended roundnose not house it enough?

Extended round nose is not an option,
Everything is in and running / fits bar the exhaust
Other than straight out the side there is no where it can go, the whole lot could / would be hidden behind an air dam and splitter

Perfectly fine for racing but im thinking about road use now because i cant guarantee being able to tow it anywhere

Read up on this. Want it be extremely noisy on a short exhaust?

you can do anything if you set your mind to it...
i rather blow it up winning than keep it together losing.

finish date set for project 1... march 2018
