hoping that this damn rain will clear for Monday.

I'd be interested to see how quick that SR8 eventually goes. Considering the SR3 RS is doing it in a 52.95 I bet it will be pretty impressive!

the SR8 has been running for several seasons now at about that pace.

Cheers Noel nearly pulled the pin but glad i did decide to head up.

Shame i missed you Mark I didnt turn up untill around 2pm.

Was a bit of a handfull in the conditions. Especially since I had the car set up with 5 deg negitive camber front and 2.5 deg negitive in the rear so was not an ideal set up for a wet track on a street tyre. Even though there was a partial dry line with a bit of standing water and a fair bit of damp track at least it was only slight drizzle. Was a bit of fun trying to get a feel for the car anyway after very limited track time in the car then a 12month abscence from the track and a new brake set up on the car.

All in all a lot to try and come to grips with. Had the boost turned right down and car was going well obviously there will be a few tweaks to sort out befor i next hit the track. Need to fit a brake bias as the car seems to have a little to much rear bias and seems a little taily under brakes and a few other little tweaks.

The only real drama I had was the car throwing a power sterering belt wich took out the dry sump belt. Was a bit of luck that it happened under brakes on decell and was able to shut the engine down imeidiatley so shouldn't have done any damage. Had a spare dry sump belt wich i threw on and started the engine and everthing seemed fine. Engine still had plenty of oil pressure and sounded fine. So will just have to check the filter on the scavage return in the next day or so to make sure there are no nasty's in there but should be fine.

Looks like this might be enough motivation for me to set up a electric power steering set up so I wont have to worry about this scenareo ever happening again.

How wet was that. Kudos to those brave enough to get out there and make a splash.

Good to see the Dazmo mobile pull in just as I was leavin. >_<
