Where's the times???

The rain really skewed the handling results, if you got a few runs in the dry then you were well up the timing scoreboard.
IIRC John F was 3rd in his fairly std Sti5 when I last spoke to him. I had spent 2 days setting my car up for the handling circuit, with a new set of Whiteline ARB's, springs, drop links, adjustable rear tie rods, full bush set and full alignment........but.......by the time I had done 2 drag runs the heavens had opened :rolleyes: The extra camber and circuit suspension set up didn't seem to cause too much delay on the 1/4m thankfully !!

And what a fine two runs they were :notworthy
|
Andy if you dont mind me asking, how come you have two fc commanders? Is the fuelling and ignition handled seperately?

IIRC John F was 3rd in his fairly std Sti5 when I last spoke to him. it was at least drizzling on all my runs, admittedly it did get a whole lot worse later on in the day.....as a mondeo nearly found out :) slidey slidey! |

What tyres were you on Neil ?

mad pic of scooby on here

I think i slipped down to 9th in the end.
I was pleased with my last run in the last 15 minutes, it came together well with a 38.9 in the pissing rain, 0.4 slower than my dry run. Neils time was seriously quick. Well done Andy, top result again! Very glad to see Bob was OK after a very scary moment, hopefully it's not too bad when it's looked at back at the workshop. |
Good to meet you all today - John, you should have taken the cement out of the boot mate :D
Just a pity my car was off the road and I couldn't have set that fastest time, eh Neilo? ;):D:D Had an email from Bob and he's ok - thankfully :D |

banny (i like a good old stab in the dark:D ) |
I think it was done on best time on each "heat", so if you couldn't put in a good time in that particular heat you lost out to the faster car.
Consistancy over fluke. :thumb: Wasn't really taking much notice of how it was organised. All I know is Shauns car stayed in the top three until the final 3 cars ran where it in put the winning time to take it. :luxhello: Well done Dirk. Andy |
A top 4 time during the day was all that was needed to qualify for the final shootout.
|
i managed a high and a mid 37 in standard V3 type R when it was dry, cud of gone a bit quicker then came the rain, and my tyres were not best suited to that, still did all 5 runs, good laugh sliding all over the place:lol1:

Ahh got ya. :thumb:
Trackday tyres would have been an advantage in the morning whilst it was dry, but Shaun left them in our workshop. :lol1: Andy |
It was nice to see JP mag have got their 'project phoenix' running after the off that trashed the old car. that was 3rd overall
