🚗 Important WOF Changes Are Coming - But Don't Forget Your Tyres! 🚗

With upcoming changes to Warrant of Fitness inspections, it's important to remember that your tyres should still be checked regularly.

Your tyres are the 🛞 only point of contact between your vehicle and the road 🛣, making them one of the most critical safety components on your vehicle. Regular inspections can help identify uneven wear, damage, low tread depth, and tyre pressures before they become a safety risk.

Don't wait until your next WOF to check your tyres.

✅ Free tyre safety checks
✅ Expert advice from local tyre professionals
✅ Trusted brands and quality products
✅ Friendly local service

Well it’s safe to say in been a fairly busy past few months getting the car running and race ready got the diff back in then got the car timed properly and we thought we’d throw it on the dyno to see what kind of power it made but sadly the gearbox didn’t like that to much and decided it wanted to blow up so got it rebuilt and decided to get my body a fresh paint for the new season then it was onto green sheeting and got given a fairly decent sized list of things to do but thanks to my sponsors and some others drivers finally got the list sorted and was on to first practice where the first race the car felt really good and started to get more comfortable in it then when I went to go out for the second race the car wouldn’t fire up turns out my dizzy came loose and messed up my timing so that was my day done, for second practice I ended up buying a SNZ ecu and loom off another driver and put it in the car and on that first race the car had a miss fire from cylinders 1 and 6 not firing so after lots of diagnosing we are thinking the problem is In the ecu so I’ve had to go back to the dizzy for now and it was up in the air weather I would make it out for opening night but I’m glad to say the car is now race ready.

Thank you everyone that has helped over the off season and a massive thank you to my sponsors couldn’t of got the car ready without their help.
