Re: Peugeot 206 silhouette race car

It was a bit of a mixed meeting for me at Brands on sunday. As well as new paint i had changed quite a lot on the car over the winter, and as i didnt manage to get any testing done, i wasnt really sure what the car was going to be like. Unfortunately despite a pair of brand new silencers i was pulled up after qualifying as being too noisy. This left me an hour to try and quieten it down before the first race, which i wasnt able to do. Frustrating as i had done my best ever lap time!
With a bigger silencer fitted and noise test passed i managed to get out for the second race, but had to start off the back after a dns in the first. I had a reasonable race and finished 12th but ended up circulating on my own for most of i it which wasnt ideal. I still need to gain a bit of pace but hopefully that will come with an improved set up and a bit more practice.

Re: Peugeot 206 silhouette race car

Its the first meeting of the season next weekend at brands hatch so i thought would do a quick update. After a very wet brands in november i decided to strip the car over the winter. The idea was to properly repair the damage from rockingham, give it a respray and generally tidy everything up, hopefully losing a bit of weight along the way. The winter seemed to go very quickly once the car was in bits but i think ive managed to do most of what i wanted.

Nice one Neil! Car looks great and well done for getting where you did.
Shame about the shunt but i guess it happens

Cheers Sam, at least it wasnt the escort that got bent!

Well done Neil great result for your first race ,i take it you have raced hotrods before ,i look forward to seeing you at Brands in November and just hope you lot are not out with us

Thanks, really looking forward to brands. Apparently they are expecting a large crowd and full grids so should be really good.

I raced hot rods with for a few years, but apart from a couple of sprints in the escort ive not done anything competitive for about 5 years.
