Trax Silverstone New GP 2010 MGBV8 trying to stay with Evo Race cars

My first time on the New GP circuit. I should have spent time learning the lines but got cought up in the excitement. Fantastic track, cant wait to go back and learn the lines properly. My MGB GT V8 did well to nearly keep with some very fast cars.

What brakes, suspension mods and tyres have you? Getting power from a big engine is one thing but this BV8 has brakes that pull up well and don't fade by the look of things and I'm guessing coil overs and good axle locaters are in place (you mention a panhard rod but anything else other than probably a big anti-roll bar?).

Get that full cage fitted pronto.

Very enjoyable vids you have.

@twmapsion Thanks, Front brakes are wilwood 300mm vented discs on custom ally bells with wilwood superlite 4 pots. Rears are wilwood vented on ally bells with Ford cosworth 4x4 calipers. I have fabricated my own triple master pedal box with bias adjustment. Front suspension is lowered mg springs with seperate adjustable shocks and 1inch arb. Rear is leaf springs (composite) with tube shocks and my own panhard rod and anti tramp bars with custon arb. Full cage now fitted. Cheers, Mark

Thanks Guys

Looking forward to seeing the Launch motorsport vid.

Mr Yella thanks for the pics.

My MG has 326bhp (277 at the wheels) Very happy with the way she went.

I was missing apexes all over the place.

What a Buzz

Cheers Mark

Absolutely sick, man! You gave the EVOs a hell of a go considering they have all wheel drive and likely twice the horses you do. Love ur vids and especially ur whip, so sweet!!
