Awsome day today, massive turnout, 86 cars apparently.

We were greeted by a very cold slippery track this morning. I had a huge spin on my first run...

After clearing the cobwebs I ended up going ok in my other three runs.

My new pagid 29's and brake fluid were a revelation, I can't believe how much stronger my brakes are with them. Had to relearn some of my braking points.

Bla bla bla anyway here's my fastest run - 2:55.

Cheers.

Haha, what a shit day at the office! Tank slappers, grass ploughing and cone crunching all in the one day. Finally got it a it sorted a bit for the last run but too little too late..

No in car of the spin unfortunately, left it at home but would like to see it from the outside

That just sounds like a normal round for me.

I'm thinking map limit and cold air didn't want to play nice, shaved 2 seconds a round with 177 my fastest as I avoided the issue.
Spewing mate, hope it's an easy fix.

But no fucking excuses right! A good tradesmen never blames his tools.

Kidding mate, they are great times considering, well done.

What a day, great course and some close competition, Neil Richardson is driving the wheels off that Swift.

Congratulation to Brett on the win and to GOC for the points win in the Austin Cup, going to be a close finish this year.

Tried a bit of Builders VID editing to add a bit of perspective, thanks for the outside filming Andrew.

Think I'll stick to photography and not the videography. Was an epic fail missing tank slappa Burkes adventures on the first run.

Doing arvo session worked well for me but there's not much time left in it. Split the 400hp Lotus's with a 120hp version so can't complain.
