aye, good to meet you It was a good day but Fee is raging that she didnt get the times she expected.

She got a 18.3 in Practice and was placed 2nd in GroupB. Just uploading vids now and it looks like she only did about 2 hot laps due to traffic and pit/red flags. Going good at this point.

Qualifing - the car went out with just under half a tank of fuel but was suffering from fuel surge coing onto the pit straight some couldnd get a good blast up the straight :/ She came in for fuel (10l) but it didnt help matters much and she couldnt improve on her time. Bum

The car is crying out for more power now. You can hear Fee shouting at the car 'come on' down the straight She was about 25mph slower at the speed trap compared to the person 1st in practice, and 3mph slower than 6th position

cool cool yeah cheers AK we came first in group b in the end and 13th got into the super battle but couldnt race, gutted, damn oil pump casing, luckly under warrenty from mitsi and funnaly enough russel tweeds went the week before same batch should've known it was gonna happen really.
comiserations to Jonathan Faull putting in a 103, for his brake disc to snap in three peices jus as he went over the line causing his front left tyre to lock up and spin him side ways into the wall.
apart from that great day out

folk just started 'missing' the pit entry and did a cool down lap

I think the disc was a rusult of the crash not the cause.... he was on the grass and kicked the back out sending towards the wall

It was a good day!! I got 1600 pics to sort through now tho!!!

The oil the Evo left made the drifting interesting !

Also the speed trap, most cars hitting around 130, then olly clark blasts through at 162mph!!
