GATTON STREET SPRINTS 2011
GATTON STREET SPRINTS 2011
I have entered again and will be towing the JB and camping at the track to save a bit of cash.
The entries are down and I would urge people to enter the sprints or burnout comp or just come as a spectatoras the local community needs all the help it can get to help their morale and recovery after the disasterous floods that have swamped most of the state
ENTRIES CLOSE NXT FRIDAY FEB 4

Just about to load the JB onto the trailer for it's first ride to an event.I am sure that I will miss driving it to an event but hope to have a good time getting to know my new Federal 595RSR's (140 threadwear) on the new rims.
Everything is a compromise and would have preferred Dunlop or Toyos(100 threadwear) the Federals were app 1/2 the price .
Dave is also entered so hope to give him a bit of a hurry up :D

Finally I managed to pip Dave at the sprints and managed to score 2nd place in class after leading early by 3/1000ths of a second then being relegated to 3rd and 2nd at the end . We were all in the 36 second bracket separated by fractions & 58th outright in a 160 car field
Dave was in a different class and ended up 2nd in class
I hope that Dave posts up some video of the event.
PS Dave i was long gone when you posted so no laptop to check on the net :(

Well done guys. I'm not superstitious, but I always go better when I take the car to the track on a trailer. Err, make that most times. :(
