Nicely done!

[Martin Donnon]

Be interested to hear Miles comments on his new brake upgrade (if he ever logs on an checks this thread!)

agreed....very impressive time.

that's with steven richards driving. heard richards had miles in the passenger seat and did a 2:19 before pulling into the pits and kicking miles out. He then took 2 or 3 laps to put it into the 15's.

the moral of this story for me is to spend more $$$ on seat time than on mods for the car. I believe Miles himself was lapping in the 20's so there is clearly massive time to be gained with the aid of professional tuition.

I think having done a few thousand km's around a place like Bathurst helps as well.

Ummmm...NO. Dont know where your getting your info from but you are waaaay off. I do the suspension setup on the car and was there so i know what happened

Steve only drove the car once on thursday (1 flying lap) and once on friday (2 flying laps). Best time he did was a 2:17 with Miles in the car and leaving plenty in reserve.

Miles had already done a 17 before Richards drove the car on friday after we tweaked the shock and swaybar settings.

Miles was definitely in the car for the 2:16's he did on saturday and the 2:15 which he set on sunday. There is a video on another thread with this lap.

As for the brakes..it still needs more. Even with the water spray they were still getting long after 2 flying laps.

Congrats to Miles and CRD for building a bullet proof car and psoting such a good time. It was only beaten by three cars, all full GT3 spec race cars.

Miles car was actually driven back to Sydney on sunday after the truck that was supposed to take it didnt show!!
