Had a good weekend with only 4 runs on Saturday as there were a few stoppages .My first run Sunday was a bit hairy but no tank slappers as the JB wanted to break traction in 2nd and step out sideways so many more times and in places where it did not occur on Saturday. Think I came 4th in class with my fastest run on the final run Sunday .
Had the Go Pro working so hope no 2 son will post it 4 me ??
Was a fair bit of carnage with a couple of cars hitting tyre barriers and smashing windscreens and a couple of hard contact with concrete barriers but thankfully no injuries.
Had DNF on one run on Sunday morning after being asked how fast I was going before braking for the 1st chicane on the start straight so had a look and it was 145 k's but upset my concentration (as I never look) so straight lined it and got a DNF.
As it was threshold braking from 140+ for the chicane the back end was feeling a bit light and squirmy and a couple of drivers in that area said that there was a little rear lock up I took a 1/4 turn of rear bias off and the balance seems about spot on now :) :beer
