Trackday / Race meeting Thread.

Has turbojolt got home yet? Lol

Good, cos I didn't stand a chance, I need to revise my spring rates and damping to get mine handling similar to yours.

Spring rates are pretty much the same, tyres make a difference (albeit less so due to slicks) and so does the diff. I think a trackday at somewhere like Blyton with time spent testing and tweaking would allow you to do what you want although might need to look at the rear dampers themselves. Remember also that my car was setup for my style of driving thats a little less aggressive than yours Id say.

I was very impressed with your speed / committment through Port Froid.

Paul..

Got a text about 10 saying he had been delivered safely home by Green Flag.

I'd love to see the recovery blokes face when he turns up and Leigh tries to blag that his starter motor 'just fell off including all wires' so can't try and restart it.

I bloody love that corner Gonna email you to discuss spring rates now so I can keep an eye out for second hand

[Andy]

Haha he never mentioned about starter just said loadsa lights came on and he was raging as hed been dumped in a car park

[Iain]

Half a story, his extreme weight saving meant by 10am the starter motor had fallen off, after bodging it in once I recommended removing it so not to cause any further damage, so rest of the day was done by bumping it

[Andy]

Lol what the hell has he been doing to balls the starter ?!

[Iain]

Not bolting it in.

[turbojolt]

The starter was bolted in my amazing track talents shook the bolts loose...p.s blagging is a art and I'm up their with van gogh

What did the Astra's go round in if you were timing at all?

1:12 I managed in mine earlier this year.

last race of the year for me and it was a championship race. Been a good season and topped it off with probably my best race to date.
