Looks like you've had looks of frustrations with that car which is a shame as there are so few VX's racing these days. If you ever want to have a chat about how to get the best out of the car then feel free to give me a buz (01491 848800). A 300bhp VX could well be at the front of the LMA grid but would need to right setup to make it work and I'm happy to help you out on that score. Good luck with the rest of the season :-)


thanks for that, i 100% agree, 300+ bhp and someone who knows what he is doing should be pretty close to front... i managed to qualify well at snetterton last year, then cocked it up in the race... have got new suspecnsion set up this year and no testing time, hense crap results... managed 10 mins in qualiy... ie total track time this year... not ideal..

good new though, when i did manage to get it going handling was way better, need to make some minor adjustment to ride height and probably revert to 550 lbs springs on front...

going to be at snetterton on 24th october once i have fixed engine & clutch... good news despite loss of approx 4 litres of oil, block & head appear to be ok...


Wonder if a Harroped car can enter? I wouldn't mind giving this ago



check out http://www.lmaeurosaloons.co.uk for current regulations, if you have a vx with blower you will be in class A along with me...

hope to see you out with us next season.

Might have to have a close look at this I think 380+ and lightened should be competitive. can you have 2 drivers as I doubt I could make all races?

Thank you. I saw an immaculate NSX today parked in St johns wood and I have made a decision to buy one. How totally ironic and how totally spaz that I did not see it. Tool with a capital T.

All the gear, no idea all over
