As I say unless you drive it then it's just tighter than you think. Yes near enough but at the height they are it seems I dump across the whole track.
Yes I can't say I was gutted when I had to start from the back I was just worried with it being wet and getting taken out by someone else but...
It was apart from it was very difficult to see flags! They should have the light boards like MSV use if they run races that late again IMO
Redgate is a funny corner it's actually a tighter corner than it looks on video and even in the car. I turn in a bit early I think but it doesn't unsettle...
Thanks Ian :) yes its certainly given some justification to the other half for spending so many hours in the garage haha! Really chuffed to end the year on a high and have a car that doesn't need anything fixing.
Best of luck for the Birkett I hope you guys get the win again and i'll be...
I just fooked up and thats all :) The rear tyres had only run on the fronts before and were heavily worn so doing 115mph on the first lap was in hindsight a bad call lol
Race 2 video :) Balls over adhesion lol!

Thanks guys :) yes the car was going really well so happy still! That was only the R888's too the dunlops have much higher corner speeds from previous experience and data.

At least it wasn't me for once ;)
Yes he seemed really into it which was good to see! Yes it made for a good race :)
Thanks Dave! Haha I hope its sooner than that but we'll see :)
Yes I did say to someone it was a shame you weren't there! I'll come along and watch you race at somepoint next year :)
I try my best to keep it clean and presentable as like you say it's much easier to work on/inspect
As Tony says where the car went sideways through the grass then gravel the front wheel was completely full and so were some of the others this led to massive vibrations and didn't want to risk it so after 1 lap decided to pull in. In hindsight I should of stayed out but the vibrations would of...
My view in quail! This wasn't as bad as it got either :( Knackered heated screen FTL
Don't think thats the way the wheel should be pointing in that corner ;)
