One more IVA question
cd.thomson - 26/4/10 at 08:34 AM

Driving my car to IVA is the first time it will driven off my short drive.

The carbs aren't tuned, the geometry isnt setup and its never been out of first gear.

Firstly should I be fantastically worried and secondly whats happens to my £450 when I breakdown 30ft down the road?

I had them worries as well, so a track day before the big day then made a trailer from an old caravan....

That's probably not very helpful really though, is it?

haha no, but its good to know im not the only one who isnt completely foolhardy

Looks like i can get a car trailer for £35 from chesterfield so I'll be using that!

Wont be able to bed the brakes in though so that'll be my first fail point

I trailored my car to both my SVA attempts and that was after a track day shake down test in the car. Just didn't want to risk breaking down or being late.
It really depend on how close the test station is, mine was about 80 miles so didn't fancy the drive, also I live in Scotland so you are never guaranteed good weather.

Cheers.
