Magnecor - technically advanced ignition leads

Last weekend the Panda officially became a racecar! Sure we've got stickers and have done a few modifications here and there - but our official arrival on the racing scene began on saturday as we proudly unveiled another sponsor. Magnecor. They make high quality HT leads which maximise the performance of the car's ignition system. Equally important, they are blue. None of these boring conventional black leads - we have racing blue ones now.

Phil, the MD over at Magnecor has been really good, custom making the leads to fit our requirements and spec. Unusually, he'd not had a racing Panda before!

The race tuning didn't stop there, as we spent the afternoon of Saturday over at John's garage, replacing the petrol tank (once and for all) before having the engine properly tuned so that not only are we slow, but fuel efficient too! John also kindly pressure tested the radiator for us - establishing beyond doubt that it is broken. At one point, with the Panda raised in the air, it was wetting itself from three separate places, leaving 2 blue puddles and a clear one to be swept up.
