Thanks for the offer Phil, but my OCD would not allow a crate motor to go in. I have seen some pretty ropey workmanship in crate motors over the years. I may take you up on part supply though if I may.

Hi Si,
        Sure happy to. If I can help let me know.

Over here we have Avon CR36 radials which are a road legal comp tyre. Loads of grip but won't last two minutes when 'pressing on' over large distances.


Good, correct speed rated 15" tyres are getting quite rare. Avon CR6ZZ are a good race / road tyre (although not much tread depth and a softer compound). http://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/page/avon-cr6zz
Also, Pirelli Cinturatos are available again http://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/page/pirelli-cinturato

I called Avon Motorsport direct today. Got a good trade price and saved around £220 on a set even with carriage.

Good move.  I'm looking to go to CR6ZZ in 215/60/15 (or 225) and 245/60/15 when my current Pirellis are done.

That's the type of thing I tell the wife  ;D.  Decent Avons aren't cheap, but are sticky.

More distraction. Found this Samba Rallye a few years back and dug it out of the shed today.
