I find Michelin PS3s to be very good for road and track

You’ll end up a much better driver and have lots more fun on less grippy tyres, so “anything cheap” 😄

Thanks, but probably more down to the fact it was damn hot yesterday. Out of interest what tyres would people recommend for road and occasional track day ( bear in mind I have to drive it home after the track day). Here is a picy of me being brave.

managed to work on wheel alignment over the last couple of days. much happier with the balance of the car now.

Company that made my wife’s engagement and wedding ring just bought a laser engraver, my jewellery shop special looked crap, so I sent them some photos and a sketch Really pleased with the result

With not much else happening in the garage right now while I wait for the welding on the chassis to be completed I’ve made a start on a few engine jobs getting it loosely built up.

Really good on road and track wet or dry.. and fair price for a quality tyre..

Agreed on these. Not cheap but well worth it. Very comfortable to wear all day, don't look out of place in public, and great for driving.

Thanks, I guess it is a compromise when it comes to tyres, hardwearing on the road, softer on the track.

wish id hadn't read this thread. I'm now looking a driving shoes!!!

Scorching hot in Wales yesterday! Had to take the bonnet off after a particularly fun section of road.

Oooh new tool chest... (FB marketplace bargain)... well chuffed. 😁 ... might even finally find time for some tinkering...

Nick. I've never paid that much for shoes!! I do know that makes me even more of a miserable git bearing in mind my sayings on tyres!! The search goes on...

You won't thank me for telling you about these because they ain't cheap, but they are so comfortable they are worth it. Made in Portugal and great quality. They last a lot longer. https://www.pilotiuk.co.uk/collections/best-sellers/products/pistone-x-black-ballistic. Some of the other styles are also really good to.

This is the drive I did today. pretty much every road is amazing. Lots of views of Snowdon. https://goo.gl/maps/G4u7teahc6hvcUqRA There are some great sights and stops on this route mostly the mach loop for driving a wooden toll bridge and a lake. https://goo.gl/maps/j4sNo2rDCMrgb9iu9 If you want to venture a bit further south Elan Valley is fantastic for driving and also I'm sure there is lots to do there. https://goo.gl/maps/RBrmLKN7EinBnYTk6 Some pics from all the locations for motivation
