[On Edge]

Hey simon, howd it end up with the underbonnet temp tests with the new bonnet?

[Simon-S14]

seems pretty good now... doesnt get hot

[Simon-S14]

back from WTAC and not a good result motor spun several bearings after just 7 laps. dropped oil from a failed oil cooler fitting on first lap out and then fixed it up and filled it back up and it seemed ok. but 7 laps in and it started rattling really bad.

<br><br>Thats not good, do you have that bottom end that you were talking about building on the side ready?  What actually happened did the fitting snap or something?

Ouch

Weren't logging oil pressure by any chance? Or notice the oil light/pressure gauge? (not that RB engines really give you a chance to save it anyway)

every good innings has an end. unfortunatly

pitty you had to travel so far for that to happen.

[Simon-S14]

yeah wish it happened locally lol. but f**k.. thats motorsport. the time attack guys were having breakages left right and centre.

heres some pics anyway

[jamie curran]

if u had a bigger wing, it may not have happened...... am sorry to hear though

nice pics

To be honest I'm surprised the motor lasted this long at that power level with the abuse you give it haha, however it was most likely an oiling problem that killed it. Sucks ass either way though, still you sure got your moneys worth from it!

You still have stock sump on it yeah?

the death was a result of dropping all of its oil first lap out... left 7L on the track. it ran wityh no oil pressure briefly.

once repaired and topped back up it lasted a further 7 laps before spinning bearings. and yeah stock sump.
