I'm out fellas. Enjoy. I emails Neil today. Unfortunately my new sump isn't quite doing the trick. Hope it's good weather out there for you guys.

I'm staying posted to make sure I get an entry into 21/7. NEED more testing time before WTAC.

woo PB...boo rain....day summarized for quite a few ppl.

:cheers:

Also don't forget a spin or two for some of us :yes:

Managed 3 session - one completely dry, one drizzly (PB 1:55.3223) and one completely wet. Really did not think PI is so slippery in wet.

I really struggled in wet, but it was also good practise to see how the car behaves.

PS: Funny story - walked up to an Alfa owner to tell him he's car is dripping some oil ............ he just look at me and laughed - guess its a standard feature.

Shame few of them broke down early in the day too, but AROCA run day was pretty slick ptherwise. Really liked the fast change between the groups, and reasonably long sessions.

Yeah was a very good day, we might look at doing some more of theirs next year.

I got same practice completely stuck in traffic so much no heat got in tires and thus could not get the pressure right for sprint.

first sprint, got clean track and a PB..tires got temp swung into pits to set pressure.

rain..

It was just one of those days, blue skies in the morning. The promise of good things, dry run. Almost dry run, then rain and hail.

The air temp and track ambient were unbelievably low. I'm not sure of the apparent temperature, but is was fugging cold!

The track temp wasn't much better, even with the streeter tyres they where hardly warm after a session out on the track.

Had a blast, with good things to come as 49's come easy in traffic now.

AD08's are 13 track days old now as well ;)

Thanks for posting up pics. The Mrs failed to take pics.

Thought I'd take it easy for first few laps. My car is there showing the swarm of mx5's that are unforgiving carnivores. Two side by side passing me on the inside of the hairpin!!

Had a blast.

Fixed the wiring but it seems to be coil packs or something electrical. RacePace have the car currently.... Now to find a GTR intake and FMIC and plumbing while it's there.....
