I was 13th outright and 3rd fastest on semi slicks. The other two were a crazy fast WRX that holds the AWD Turbo record and an insane MkII Escort with a NA Cosworth engine spinning to 10,500rpm with over 250bhp at the wheels! He smashed his own record on the weekend too. Both no expense spared vehicles.

My 3rd run was a disaster, but apart from that I was consistently in the 46's. A bit more time behind the wheel and it should be running consistent low 46's - maybe sneak into the 45s.

Excellent result Harry So you gained nearly half a second for the first sector. How did the 2nd gear starts go?? Did the 3rd run bog badly off the line??
Is the escort you where talking about a really nice candy apple red with BDA?
Also any Pictures??

that's them Heath. Both stunningly quick cars and very well driven. Both class record holders by a margin of seconds over anyone else in their classes!

Andrew, the 2nd gear starts are definitely the way to go - thanks for the tip! I think there's still room for improvement on those starts yet too.

Yep, I bogged it down off the line on that 3rd run and then got it very sideways out of turn 1 with the back off in the grass, and was very slow up the first hill as a result.

I still think there may be some time to make up in the 3rd sector on the run to the finish line, and I might try 2nd gear again in the corner in the 2nd sector. 3rd is a little low in the revs there, but 2nd is very easy to bag them up and loose alot of time.

Next time at Mt Cotton is the Australian Hillclimb Championships in November. Thers's a practice day and 2 days of competition, so hopefully the track will get fast with alot of rubber down on it from all those openwheelers. I doubt I'll be too competitive in Sport Sedans at the AHC, but it will be a good chance to run a 45. Michael Collins' 43 sec WRX will probably be running in my class then, and I'd expect a couple of quick interstate Sport Sedans to show up too. hmmm, maybe I should get some slicks...
