Pilot Pete Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Yes, I think we'll be gearboxing. Its looking good to have the whole front end completed by the end of this weekend though with the new gearbox, driveshafts, bearings and bushes all in hopefully! Then onto the rear end and smashing more glass windows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funbobby Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 What you doing to the Civic Pilot? More power? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffC Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 well took a day out of building and set about 8.30 this morn changed 16 tyres changed clutch on Tkm axle on Tkm sprocket on cadet sprockets on Prokart set tracking on prokart and fiddled with caster and rear track. hopefully all set for an easy weekend kartin harv the race for the boy in the tkm will fetch him on more than practice, he needs to learn the circuit and reckon getting amongst quicker tkms will do the trick if he can tag on the back, got him in a race at the circuit he knows pretty well on Saturday although he hast tried it properly in his tkm im pretty confident he will quickly get on the pace as he has done 1,000s of laps there in a world formula Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, thats the plan, just got a few wee bits to buy and then I'm ready. If there's time I might go on the hunt for more power! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
