Hi All
I'm about to start building a Mk1 Escort (1969) track day car and would welcome advice on what bits to go for.
I can trailer to the track (mainly Brands Hatch so tight and twisty, relatively low speed).
I am certain on Duratec + Mazda 5 speed.
Any tips for:
Rear suspension set-up; Atlas? 4/5/6 link?, Watts linkage?, dampers/springs?, half shafts?
what length axle, ie 52inch would that work with wide wheels and extended fenders or does it have to be shortened?
Brakes: discs source and callipers/pads?
Diff? heard about gripper and tracsport but I'm sure there are others
ARBs?
Similar really on front, have no clue what I should go for, nice big brakes would be nice, what spec struts/dampers/springs, ARB?
Will be running soft tyres, probably not slicks but something like Avon ZZRs
Have a good budget for chassis set-up and will skimp on the looks for the time being.
Cheers
