I did notice the handbrake was very close to the gear stick!! 
Shame for the team and more importantly all the hard work that went into the car that it never showed what it can do!
For the record my times from yesterday were 40.5 on the handling, good for 4 points which i presume was 7th. Managed to do 10.44 & 10.58 @ 133, would have gone quicker if it wasn't for a driveshaft breaking and boost hose popping it off, by the time i'd got the car setup right and the launch control set to my liking the timing went down and then the rain started by the time i got to the line
Was a good run apart from the wheel spin off the line, no time card, so who knows until we see the final results...
Got some videos i'll post later

Banny, very first run, not even driven the car at all, low boost of 1.3 bar, stupidly set of in 2nd gear, went to change to 2nd (thinking it was in 1st) and pulled the handbrake instead, realised what i had done, then changed to 3rd, then 4th, so a **** run. Data logs show i went to 60mph with a 2.1 60 foot, then slowed down to 26mph, then went through the quarter at 12.1 @ 132mph!
We then called it day!

Data log from my first and only run at TOTB, low boost, toyo 888's at 32psi, wet, and a complete lack of seat time meant i pulled the handbrake lever at 60mph instead of selecting the gearstick!
It took 2.4 seconds to get back to the speed i was doing before i pulled the handbrake. I guess a very low 10 could have been done at low boost!
Oh well, another day!

Reporting on TOTB results has been very low key. I guess that is because Olly Clark and the Roger Clark team won. 
RCM competed in all three categories, set the fastest quarter mile time of the day, fastest top speed and came second by a fraction to the winning Evo on the handling course. Olly pulled a red light and was eliminated in his heat. Over all this resulted in a total of 35 points and the three remaining classified Subarus scored 7 points on the drag strip, AFP, 2 points on the handling, Kev Horsley and 1 point on the handling John Stevenson. Well done. Quite a remarkable result for Roger Clark Motorsport. In the Team event, Subaru finished second to the Evos. Matt has again demonstrated his engineering ability with a very reliable all round, top flight car for quarter mile, handling and top speed.
I am surprised the results are not already on the thread but I will see if I have them tomorrow.
