First visit to Mac#1
StevieB - 14/6/08 at 05:58 PM

Paid my first visit to Mac#1 today to pick up a carbon dash and some switches - ended up parting with a fair bit more cash whilst I was there too!

Top bunch of guys and only wish I'd been to see them before now, and also before I'd bought my ki elsewhere too!

Yes I can support that, i called in on Wed to order my kit, a workZX10R and found both colin and mark to be top guys with great advice. A really friendly atmosphere.

Glad I ordered with them and would recommend to others.

Did you go this morning Steve, i was there after dinner giving one of the lads a hand to wire up the zx10r in the corner. would have been good to meet a fellow Locostbuilder user

Yeah, I was there early doors.

I was quite impressed with the WorX chassis (presumably the one you were working on with the ZX10).

I'll definately be considering them for my next build, if only they'd address the styling a little (nosecone, bonnet and pref 1 piece sides and rear tub) to go with the upgraded chassis

What did you think to the new 13 inch wheels that they have commisioned, quite sexy i think

StevieB - 14/6/08 at 10:23 PM

Put it this way - I WAS going to get some CXR's at a later date, but I may well be changing my mind!

I've had my sierra wheels powder coated and have just had some 14" R888's put on. As soon as those tryes are worn, I'll be back at Mac1 for a set of those beauties!

Are there any pics of these wheels yet?

mac1 - 15/6/08 at 10:26 AM

Chris, the wheels weigh 4.68 kgs painted, and fitted with a 205/60 x 13 R888 they weigh 12.7 kgs. Available in et 15 to et 35

Sexy wheels, have they got mac1 embossed on them?

mac1 - 15/6/08 at 11:12 AM

Hi Mark, hope you are still taking the blue smarties, the wheels are embossed with Team Dynamics Racing on the rim, but they are exclusive to MAC#1, we decided against embossing MAC#1 on them so that they'd compliment other makes of cars such as Westy, Cateringvans, MK's, Luegos,MNR's and MK's to name a few.

I also paid my first visit to them today.

Unfortunately couldn't get out in a car, but they have invited me back so not to worry.

Brilliant in terms of helping me with decisions and looking at costs. I am very much looking forward to starting now.

Also the mac#1 wheels look bloody great.
