We had our local Racewars day yesterday, and it was epic. If you haven't seen any of my pics vids before, it is just an event we do on a short stretch of airfield now and again to raise money for local charities, and also to have a good time. Everyone knows each other and everyone is up for the crack and it is always a brilliant day out....and this year it was really really hot.. :twisted:
Car was ok, suffered from the hesat a bit after a few hours, but I completed well over 40-50 runs with no serious issues. I think my brake fluid was pooped from Llandow and I didn't change it in time, and the stoptech pads gave up after about 15-20 runs. I had set my front coilies too stiff and because they are inverted dampers I couldn't be arsed to get under there and re-adjust it so suffered round the cone most of the day with it washing out quite badly.
All that aside though I did really well, launches were spot on all day and the gear changes were faultless, and pretty much suprised everyone there I think, again..
few pics...
..and here I am at 1min into the video against the black GT4.
Should have some pics and vids in the next few days. Also have a couple of in-car vids though not sure how they came out.
It's a simple set-up but an awesomely fun day and I never tire of it..
Car has a couple of months off now, need to get some bits and bobs sorted out and also having my car fully setup on the new beisbarth corner scale/geo machine at DRM Motorsport in a week or so which should be good.
