Hi guys,

Regs

Early Bird entries need to be in before 22 October.

If it isn't too hot, I'm hoping to crack into the 1:14s this time!

I sent my entry off on the 27th of Sept. No confirmation of my entry yet but I hope I was early enough 8)

Should have my near new track tyres and lighter wheels for the first time, so I hope to get under 1:30.

dude you should have no problems what so ever cracking the 1.30s...

with sticky tyres you'd be looking at cracking down into the 1.15s with ease

Think Troy meant 1:13s as he did a 1:14.72 in June.
He's being modest and conservative as he should go into the 1:12s with ease. 8)

All booked in and ready to go. Coming down with my son David who should show me up especially now that he will have an oil cooler on the car. He was running .5 sec behind me at OPS at round 8 supersprint ( he was holding back as oil temp was hitting 130c), was fastest in his class and 1.24 sec ahead of the nearest mx 5 in his 1999 honda integra type R

It goes to show how much driving skill & courage makes up for power or lack of power. The Honda would have about 100-110 kw at the front wheels and is much heavier than my car. Should be interesting on the day

In all honesty, I go to the track days so infrequently that I am miles away from what would be a competetive time in the car. Takes me all day to remember which way the corners go :roll: I'll be in the car doing a three-point turn on the hill climb circuit.
