I was struggling at Spa a bit for headroom with my helmet on. Is there any way I can rake the sunroof out and put some sort of temporary blank on it for future trackdays, just to give me a little more rom?

no but you can make a drop plate for the floor.

Try changing your sitting position a little bit Matt. I find myself needing to adopt a lower sitting position when the helmet is on...i'm so much shorter than you so can't imagine what it must be like for you...oh yeah..now i remember. Your head was tilted to one side the last time

The other option is leg and torso surgery

This is in the FAQ Matt

Time taken = 20 mins

Tools & material needed

1) Sewing machine

2) Plywood

3) 6" nails

stick a fork in it

Sparky.. that FAQ must be from the transit van forum as i cannae find it here!

Ahh you're right...transits kick arrse especially white ones with sunroofs that are blanked out, with the old sewing machine trick.

I had right bad heartburn last night, that bloody morning glory, should have stuck with the sambul eggs me thinks

You're such a lightweight

Hi,how to blank up a sunroof in a few easy steps,and also save around 12 kilos in weight off the roof of the car.

1-Remove suunroof (naturally).

2-Cut,bend and shape a piece of alloy or steel plate to suit the sunroof hole and curve of the roof,then weld in.

3-Skim on a little filler and sand to smooth finish to make a perfect finish.

Or if its only a trackday car,then cut a sheet of carbon fibre to suit and then pop rivot it and also use a bead of silicone sealent to cover the sunroof hole.

But you might not be allowed on certain tracks (safety rules) as its not metal or welded in place.

Erm, open the sunroof and drive tank commander style ?
