Little update on ZR, not really done much to it this year as having little break from it and been concentring on getting my Evo ready for summer. Anyway decided last minute to get it really for MG Live Sunday so nicked wheels from the daily ZS....

Got a silicone hose made to join the 28mm radiator joint to 35mm PRT joint so fits better and don't need a joiner anymore....

Also got it weighed, with my and 1/4 tank its 1070kg, aim is to be about 1000kg empty with cage so not to far off bearing in mind don't have fibreglass tail gate/bonnet or light weight windows yet....

Two from MG Live, was a really bad turn out from the Z cars I thought only hand full of each real shame. Was a good day tho and the ZR's were great on track as always real close racing. Was also happy with the interest in my car quite a lot of people stopped to ask about it might try get on a stand next year.....

Strange post today, after a lot of thought and debate ive decided to stop using the ZR and have started stripping it this weekend and picked up my new car that will be building for track and hopefully racing too. Dont worry tho is still Rover so for now Il keep you guessing and start new thread soon.

Hi all just thought i would end my thread here. The ZR has gone today but im pleased to say its gone to another MG owner who is going to carry on from where i left off.

So here she is stripped and ready to go....
