I had a great time, thanks for the passenger rides Tux and Funky
both your cars seem to handle better than mine, (or perhaps i drive like a girl
)
today has left me with a few impressions
Noble owners are a great bunch
There is not much can overtake a Noble on track
Nobles are impressive overtakers at Snetterton
I can't drive mine fast enough
I think i may have to start round two of the modifications ! I'm feeling the need for more power
Tux - hope you get the hub/bearing issue sorted out easily - have you modded the hubs to take a circlip ?
Funky - your car rocks I love that high boost button
hope you get the alternator issue sorted

Then I met with TuxMan, Funkster, Funkybmx1, Gadgeroonie and Yoda.
Great Guys,
A big THANKYOU to TuxMan for getting me the Carbon End Plates and giving me a ride (my face is still on, just), absolutely loved every minute of it.
Time went so quickly, just like the Noble's.
Can’t wait till next time.

Yeah, A great day guys even if I couldn't get on till nearly lunch as it was full on track.
The cars deffo ate up a lot of the other machinery out there and as usual flames were awash.
Good to put a couple of names to faces and talk Nobs as usual.
Will try and get a bit of in car footage sorted out over the next couple of days.

What sort of lap times were you boys doing?
Under 2 mins. is good, best I've seen is 1min 47secs.
This Monday the GT series in the MSVR club are racing so would be interesting to seee how fast you really are.
Wow so the new lay out is around 14sec slower than the old? we were doing 1m 33sec reg on fairly standard tyers in the wet.I think the times will be lower than 1m 47,Icould be wrong?Under 2 mins. is good, best I've seen is 1min 47secs.

Well my new hub (thanks Jetsream) returned from machine shop with my wishbone mod and bigger circlips fitted up from 73mm to 76mm , no way these buggers are popping out !!!! Hopefully I will not have the problem again !!! Let's hope the new disc us ok will check the runout once fitted !!

did you have to get a new hub after the circlip came loose ?
can the hub be machined to take bigger bearings and make it a lot stronger ?
Yes Gadge had to fit a new alloy upright , put new bearings in as well and refitted my old hub as it was new !! my alloy uprights are different to stock !!can the hub be machined to take bigger bearings and make it a lot stronger ?
bigger circlip will fix the problem !!
