Upgraded our front and rear kinematic kit to @wiborg_engineering fantastic docol carbon kit. Huge thanks to the them for supplying me these. We have set the rear up to gain -1.0 degree of camber from ride height too 30mm compression, where toe gain is 0.5mm. This should improve our mid corner grip as well as keeping corner exit grip there. We still need to set the front up. But have more to do first up that end
Another session of testing on our GR Yaris and our best friends! The wheel speed sensor is now fixed and I have confirmed the final settings for the Samsonas 3-way Rally Tarmac suspension: there is no way to describe how fast the car is now!!

An introduction to the latest evolution of Wiborg Engineeringâs GR Yaris front LCA âCircuit Geometry kitâ and this evening full video on YT!

âą This is the Wiborg Engineering Evo 2.0, a legendary Time Attack Monster coming from Sweden, built by Fredrik Wiborg, Record holder at a huge amount of European Time Attack events, and finally making the transition to HillClimb Racing last season, as it was rented first by Stian Hafsengen, and later bought by Kristian Pettersen. Powered by a 2.2L 4G63 Turbo engine capable of 1000Hp on full Boost, here we see it attacking Norges Raeste Bakkelop in low to mid-boost settings for 850Hp, but still way more than enough for a machine weighing 850Kg only, boasting a over 1:1 power to weight ratio. With a chassis more akin tot full blown DTM car than a Lancer Evolution unit, this is true spaceframed Race car fully focused on weight saving and Aerodynamic efficiency âą
It's @gatebil_official race week again at Mantorp Park and we will bring the Red Evo v2.5 to play.
We made the debut with the new iteration of the car during the Gatebil summer festival a few months back and brought home some 3x đđđ and after last week's event at GellerĂ„sen we got the car absolutely dialed in and ready to put on a hell of a show for the final Gatebil event of the year.
Rumors says that during the evening sprint race on Saturday and if it's a dry track there will be some more serious boost setting used because why not đđȘ
You will find us in pitbox 5/6 during the weekend if you are attending make sure to pay us a visit.
First outright track record (for non formula cars) with the Evo v2.5 and the #recordfactory first RWD track record!!!
What was intended mainly as a shakedown before @gatebil_official Mantorp final next week we brought the Evo v2.5 to GellerÄsen to verify that we had sorted some of the minor issues that we had with the newly revised v2.5 on the cars debut and triple win at Gatebil summer festival.a few months back
We did not think the rear wheel driven Evo v2.5 would be able to challenge our old still standing record done with the AWD Evo at this very tight twisting and bumpy track at 1:01:5 nor was this the aim with the day (at least not at the start of the day)
But as soon as the car hit the tarmac it handled absolutely amazing and after getting a handfull of laps in during the first half of the day and with all system performing as intended it was time for the final and last heat of the day.
We bolted on some fresh Yokohama A005 rubber and still with the lowest boost setting which meant pretty much running on the WG spring pressure (~1,7-1,8 bar boost) we gave it a 1 lap attack to try and beat our own record. And in the process we did not only beat it we crushed it with 1.1 second bringing it down to a 1:00:40 now sitting only 1.7 sec of the outright track record set by a Williams F1.
ItÂŽs safe to say we will have to talk to @gellerasen about coming back next year and hopefully we can do a real duel with the F1 car and challenge the record time. Once we get some more laps in the car and especially once we turn up our boost to the 3.0 bar setting we will have a very good shot at challenging for an outright record here.
Thanks to our sponsors helping us push the limits year after year.

đŁSDC round 1đŁ Vilken start pĂ„ sĂ€songen det blev. Kul körning, bra event och en himla massa strul!
Torsdag: vi kom fram med gott humör och sÄg fram emot att fÄ Àntligen köra bilen för första gÄngen pÄ sÀsongen. Allt rullade pÄ fint och banan var grymt rolig!
Fredag: trĂ€ningen pĂ„ förmiddagen gick bra. Sista repan kĂ€ndes vibrationer i bilen som vi undersökte men skakade bort som inbillning eller vibration i dĂ€ck eller dylikt. Detta visade sig vara en tĂ€ndspole som givit upp sĂ„ nĂ€r jag vĂ€l gick ut för att kvala sĂ„ gick bilen pĂ„ 5 cylindrar⊠Vi valde att köra Ă€ndĂ„ men dĂ„ kom nĂ€sta spĂ€nnande förutsĂ€ttning, regn. Efter ungefĂ€r en timme i line-up sĂ„ var det min tur. Det hade torkat upp i zon 1 och 2 men inte lika mycket i zon 3. Dum som man Ă€r laddade jag pĂ„ ordentligt i hopp om att det var âtorrtâ överallt men det fick man lida av. Tog en rejĂ€l smĂ€ll in i vĂ€ggen. HĂ€r trodde vi att helgen var över men bashbaren bak gjorde sitt jobb och allt annat var helt och rakt. Vi hade lite tid pĂ„ oss att kolla över allt sĂ„ det var fullt ös att riva bort allt som var trasigt bak och lyckades Ă€ven lokalisera att det var en tĂ€ndspole som givit upp. Vi bytte spolen och bilen gick pĂ„ alla burkar igen. Jag stack ut med nĂ„gra minuter till godo och lyckades lĂ€gga en repa som kvalade in oss pĂ„ 6e plats vilket kĂ€ndes otroligt i stunden med tanke pĂ„ nerver efter krocken.
Lördag: Det hade regnat under natten och det var dags för min första twinkörning/trÀning nÄgonsin. Trodde jag⊠Ett trigger problem uppenbarade sig som satte stopp för körningen. Vi fick hjÀlp av ett annat team som skulle till biltema att köpa en ny vevaxelgivare men tyvÀrr sÄ funkade den inte alls. SÄ pÄ grund av detta missade vi Àven twin-trÀningen pÄ eftermiddagen. Men @tripakofficial hjÀltar som dom Àr satte av mot sundsvall dÀr vi hade lokaliserat en ny givare av bÀttre kvalitet. Dom kom tillbaka i lagom tid sÄ att vi hann installera givaren med ungefÀr 10 minuter till godo innan top 16. Hade fortfarande problem att bilen inte ville gÄ pÄ tomgÄng men pÄ varv lirade den iallafall! Jag Äkte ut och vÀntade en dryg timme med hjÀrtat i halsgropen pÄ att fÄ köra min första twin-Äkning nÄgonsin.. fortsÀtter i kommentarer
