Wow what a weekend!
Phillip Island was cold and wet at times but perfect turbo weather, Day 1 was full of dramas from constantly overheating to massive understeer. We managed a 1.49 which was 3 seconds faster than the cars previous PB and Phillip Island. This was a step in the right direction but with the Chasers Time Attack Evo getting round in 1.44's we were way off the pace.
Day 2. We started cutting out the front bar opening to try and get control of our engine temps. Some suspension changes and aero changes started getting the car more balanced but a brake issue has now started to give us trouble where the car just doesn't want to pull up on the slower corners and in pinching tyres. With the car now staying cool and the car more balanced we were now able to cut some laps and work on that time. The Chasers Evo continued to develop and they managed a PVB of 1.40.5. After a few more adjustments we went out and gave it a red hot go. We managed 1.40.3 This was a massive 9 seconds faster than the previous day and 12 seconds faster then the cars previous PB. We were very happy and have plenty more adjustments to make to make that will only move us in the right direction.
