Had a few parts in stockpile for awhile that i put in over easter. 25mm front bar. 9kg front springs. 7kg rear springs. 800hp driveshafts. And will also get some new brake fluid in aswell.

Ill probably run the little wheels next round just because its the one ive been waiting for to use the hydro setup. That will probs be the last time i use em as they will be getting pretty tired and maybe 4 runs of doing helis on the first corner will finish em haha.

You were almost as quick as me with your pirouette, mowing the grass and two wheels off the ground bro.

Yeah. That was wild. Haha.

But i also had 2 unfinished runs because of mechanical fail- so slowest time allocation. And my last run was a still born. Again slowest time there.

My 3rd run shaping up to be a good one. It was smooth and it felt fast. Then the IC pipe blew out on the last 1/2 lap. I dont know if you could hear the swearing over the other car engines etc. But i was yelling pretty damn loud at that point.

I only had one posted run. Came off on 2 of my runs due to braking issues, so didn't even go out for a 4th run.

I think it was brake fade. The budget rotors I put on can't dissipate the heat quick enough on a hot day. Every now and then in my final lap I would jump on the brakes and the pedal would go straight to the floor, pretty scary!

Always used this fluid though...

I flushed last event too.
Only things that have changed in my setup are the rotors, put on in November, and the forza pads that went on around same time.
