New brakes and oil pres warning lamp

  The brakes have been a problem from day one in that they were causing lost time at the hairpin and fading two up. They looked the part being single x drilled discs and early billeted 4 pot Dynalite's  from Wilwood.

I changed the discs to vented x drilled and grooved parts and as a consequence had to upgrade the callipers as well to the latest Dynalite forged part from Wilwood supplied by RD.

The results were a dramatic improvement in both hill climbs and circuits.

Oil pressure warning

I have been advised by several hill climb veterans that a very bright visible oil pressure lost lamp is essential equipment for racing. This lamp BL0102-14-34 is the bees knees. Thanks to Matt as he had a spare in his garage.
