Not enough length in the section that exits the car to jack it up?

I went across inside and out of the wheel arches.

someones on ProjP

my other thoughts are, braided hose for the whole lot? wont that give a bad pedal i would have thought with a larger ID over normal pipe would lose pressure over the system, not rigid enough etc

hmm, was more trying to get at the fact its going to be a far larger inner diameter then normal pipe meaning have to shift more fluid, which would suggest far more pedal travel unless you uprate the MC??

might be wrong

this seems to be happening a lot lately, not sure if its just pumas, people copying what they see on the net trying to make track cars then, then either doing it badly, or giving up after a few mods and selling it

that guy who was weighing his car on bathroom scales and who was claiming to build a race car for £999 has now rubbished that figure after spending money on his first mod

That guy is in a motor club as well? Bodes well.

There were two other Pumas at Donington yesterday, both standard looking, both going fast. Daft thing for me is you don't need all that messing.
