Nice little movie Chris
Did Dai manage to get any decent in-car footage from the many cameras attached to his car ?

Great footage CW, thanks for that. You may notice that I do not crave media attention like some racing drivers!!!!

In-car footage here (right click, save as...) This was an early run in the dry with in-car from a wet run. The wet windscreen caused problems for the Camera from then on.

Times were:
Run 1 - 46.09 (Practice)
Run 2 - 41.32 (Dry)
Run 3 - 44.98
Run 4 - 42.81
Run 5 - 43.42
Run 6 - 42.71

By this time the amount of standing water was crazy, so keeping it from hitting the cones was my only target. Pleased with the last run, and I am sure I could have gone a little quicker if I had some more laps, but did not think it sensible.

Lots of nice cars out there doing some good times. How did JohnWRX get on, I think he was doing well?

Some good results there super, and excellent footage. How did you do the pip stuff? Could have done with a bit of music though, maybe the Commodores "easy (on a sunday morning)

Chief, Dale did go, spoke to him just as we were leaving. He didn't run though, and went up in a mates car.

Well done John - top result. The track was waterlogged when I when out for my last run, so even more impressive.

Those tweeks you made to the suspension to compensate for the change in wind direction obviously did the trick

Well done John, thought it was all going pear shaped for him in the morning though when he lost a hose Glad he got it all together and was able to put all that hard work and time to good use

Not so much a rush to get home, more like not 100% prepared for such terrible weather on the day, cold and wet, but at least well fed

Cheers for that Dai, Thanks Andy

Yeah, i didnt even get a dry run so god knows what i would have managed on a dry track, here are my times........

Run 1 - 49.62 (practice lap)
Run 2 - 38.05
Run 3 - 38.94
Run 4 - 37.58 (scattered 3 cones too)
Run 5 - 38.12

Car behaved itself yesterday apart from top hose splitting.
Got to give it to Pete from Prosport though for setting the suspension up, not even close to spinning it and standing water all the way round the track. If it had have been dry then im sure i could have chewed another second of those times maybe more.

Well done to both of you. Shame the good weather didnt hold out.

John, Pete said you were a good driver early in the day. (I thought he'd been drinking due to not working on a Sunday! oh I forgot you even got him working as well)
