long time no update... not good!

so what happend in the last two months:

treated myself by getting a new trailer, which is much better for the very low nova


i like that view



Then took part in a slalom event like every year
Ready for race and test all the modifications



1. Training run

Because the bumper was very low and i didn't want ot to be damaged i drove very slow and cautious.
But unfortunately the changes on the suspension i made during winter made the car nearly undriveable
the car just bounced when i hit the throttle



To be on the save side i removed the bumper after this run.

2. Training run

without bumper at least i could hit a pylon without damage... and that's what i did at 0:42
the suspension turned out to be much worse than last years problems, but on the other hand the EPAS was a real suprise!
The EPAS makes a real difference even i just set it to minimum assistance

1. Timed run

Trying to make the best of it
At least the EPAS is a real joy! It tranforms the agility

[ExTrEmeOc]

2. Timed run

Wheels catching wheel arches, suspension bouncing under full throttle... coulnd't get much worse

[ExTrEmeOc]

3. Timed run

Hit a pylon at 0:48
Fastest time 1 Second slower than last year :-/



To the pictures!

First run with bumper


first thing to to after winter: empty the exhaust system *cough cough*




No ground clearance at all






The track was very dusty this year


relocating a pylon for wide cars


...nuch better now

Results

Despite the massive problems i managed 5th place out of 21!


Now it's time to sort out all problems, i'm confident. At least now i know how to work in the wrong direction
On more trophy for the the cabinet
