Winton 29 March 2015

Postby davekmoore » Sun Mar 29, 2015 8:59 pm

Another great day for MX5 sprinters of all levels. Thanks to all who were involved in organising it. See the club website for info if you fancy having a go. Round one of the 2015 championship is in two weeks (although you can take part in the sprints without entering for the championship),
UK since return: Standard NC2 (horrid), C200K, ND2 BBR, NC2 BBR200 (loved it), NC BBR300 (better than BARMY), V-Special, turbo NB8B (my 84th car)

Decent MX5 turn out. Weather was good (bit too sunny). Gotta love turning up to a track day, driving all day, and the only job to do is check your tyre pressures. Unlike plenty of guys around us that had many issues, and lots of spanner twirling. One guy drove from Sydney, did 4 laps, broke the car.

Also gotta love the two leading GTVs in the Alfa race taking each other off in the last corner of the last lap then helping each other mend their cars in time for the next race. Cool!

The MX5s don't race. We just do sprints against the clock. Go here to find out more http://mx5vic.org.au/motorsport/
