Yep, I had a ball... after snapping a wheel stud on my FIRST LAP! :)

After that drama I managed to fit 23 laps into the afternoon and got a best time of 1:15.9!

Big ups for Steve and Adam for organising the day. It was a shame about the hiccups regarding water and power and keys etc, but it was a great weekend all the same! Nice to meet some faces I haven't met before too!

Cheers!

you poor thing! But a top effort cutting a 1.15 with very little practice you had on that track! Well done!

Well done to Dave and Ando 1.13 and 1.14 respectively... you legends!!!!

What a fantastic weekend! Well done to Adam and Steve for organising! :)

I had an awesome time too!

Now I need a set of semis and more practice to cut my time down! What sort of time should I look at running on street tyres and stock boost/turbo. I managed a 1:18.2, kinda hoped for better. One of the guys from Renew suggested I should have been trying for a low 16 maybe even 15.

man I just check the time sheet again.. there are way too many good times to mention!!!!

Adam, Shaun and George.. nice work!

James (lingeringsoul) did a 1.19 .. first time on the track!

and Paul!!! Good times as always and thank you so much or your help!!!! Hopefully next time I'm out there I can knock another second or two off.... was very frustrating sitting on 1.19 and 1.20 for the majority of the day!

For those not 110% sure about the worth of semi slicks, in Shauns car, we were sliding all over the place, how he got that time with those tyres and suspension, i will never know. Paul on the other hand, cracked the 10's, and its clear why - the grip his car has is nothing short of astonishing!

Also the willingness to break their cars MAY have had something to do with it :)

Shaun spent about 2.5 hours replacing a wrecked hose that limited boost to only 7psi (down from 15), and Paul discovered he had broken one of his brake rotors clean in two!

Well done guys - fantastic times, cant wait for the next one!!!
