Thanks Roger - I appreciate it!

How much pressure did you need to achieve that? I did 164kw on 14psi - I've currently turned it down to 8psi for the track day and it feels SO SLOW... I need to learn how to drive lakeside again. It's been a very long time.

I'll be at the BP on Old Northern Rd at about 6:45/7:00 am for coffee/breaky/fuel if anyone wants to meet up prior to the track.

CTP EXTENSIONS

For those who will be chasing their CTP at 9.00am tomorrow morning, I have just spoken with Mark the Competition Secretary and if you can get them to email to your phone or to someone who has a phone that accepts an email, he can sight it and that will be OK

He is currently putting together an interim list from fastest down where he knows lap times so Groups can be tentatively prepared to save time

All looking good for a fantastic day!!

"Fastest Lap Av.Speed Is 141kph" That's pretty impressive!

I think I'm going to have to get some training on braking/corner speed if I'm going to improve my times.

Great to meet you Andrew and glad you had such a blast!! Well done on the times at your first day out

Many thanks to Mark, Chris & Wendy our 'starters', all the volunteers and Doug & Staff from QR/Lakeside for the fantastic job they did today, without them it would not have been the great day it was!!

Nice to see so many entries, over 50 is just something we would have dreamed of 2-3 years ago!!

Thanks also to the 'other makes' that came along, I would say EVERY ONE OF THEM had the BEST day!!

Congratulations to all that did PB's, I missed by 3/10th of a second but who cares?

Look forward to seeing everyone at QR in May :wink:

Thanks for the day, left early because not feeling well and could not concentrate, however happy with my 1:11.72 for my stock engined 1.6 NA and first time at Lakeside in a very long time. Need to check roster for next meet, hopefully good news!
