I was a club member for a couple of years but the club events didn't really line up with what I wanted to do so eventually left.

I do my trackdays with Opentrack mainly, but occasionally MSE and Javelin dependant on date and venue.

I have a 140 Sigma, I think the 6" all round setup is the best for balance (I use Avon ZZS tyres), and an LSD is a must.

As far as windscreen/aero, it's down to personal choice. Mine came fitted with a windscreen but I recently bought a clear aeroscreen from Meteor Motorsport and absolutely love it. I've fitted the captive bolts so switching between the two is a 10 minute job at most. Gives the best of both worlds!

I've had little experience with other spec cars, but I have the 4 pot fronts and uprated master cylinder, and combined with good pads it's a great setup.

The only thing I wish my car had is a brighter paint job!

The looks of the Caterham 160 Sprint look great to me, the handling looks to be similar to the XI. The only things that let it down are the gearbox and lack of power upgrade path.

As a complete left field alternative the Brooke Double R could be a bit of fun?
