I think Scott, Nef and others must have forgotten about the memo that this is a forum where we talk the talk, not walk the fucking walk! :lol:

Brilliant write up Nef, will read Scotts when my brain is a little less fried from a long day at work!

Too busy to poo :lol:

That's the data set for the weekend. All three of our drivers are within 6 tenths of each others fastest laps. Ross Had the freshest sets of tyres as he started both days. I was driver 2 and Neil driver three so as the drivers progressed the tyres got shitter yet we still managed all to be very close on pace.
I went over 3 seconds faster in the race on full fuel.

Qualy is irrelevant tbh, you just take life out of the car

I see BOM were there in the form of Mr Brunning in their old C1 that they gave to MM. I wondered if they would be.

We could have used at least one more set of tyres.

In the short term, a fairly major service (inc gearbox rebuild, ball joints/bearings) and a little damage repair (contact to pass door and rear lower quarter).

Longer term, I think the plan is to buy a second car, and update both cars with some of the mods we learned from the event (custom fueling system, proper swappable seat, proper radios, various upgraded suspension and brake items. Then was can run the Modsport series (sprints) for fun/testing and hopefully around 3 endurance events per year (currently looking at a 24hr :shock: event next September).

They changed engines overnight - you can really see the power advantage in that vid
