Its all done and dusted.
Great day even though only practice and first session were dry.
Star of the day was Chooie who ended up 4th outright out of over 90 entries.I will let Chooie tell you about his day when he comes across this post.
Didn't catch up with trb012 so can't comment on his day.
Ebony (15 year old daughter) had her track debut in the ute and did seriously well even ending up about 25th outright in 1 session.
And I came away happy. Ended up having outright 2nd fastest flying lap time for day but big lose in standing lap cost me dearly.
The coupe is an absolute missile, 187km at end of straight.Needs serious work on brakes and suspension .Chickened out in the wet and drove the ute for the rest of the day and ended up running just outside the top 10 on most sessions.
A great day all round and well done Chooie ,his times in the wet and dry were impressive.

Cheers
Bob

Now that was fun!!
It was always going to rain, even started raining during the drivers briefing.
I'm still trying to get my head around the gearbox... but its awesome when you get it right.

Here is the link to session 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBp1nEPEArA
The guy in the rex is a mate.. nearly collected him at one stage..

Bob, your coupe is going to be a weapon when you get it sorted, the highest speed I saw at the end of the straight was 176.

Stu and chris both did really well, keep at it boys!! they say wheel time is the best thing!!
Good to catch up with Simon as well, always a interesting chat!!
It was a shame we didn't get more dry laps, I had just as much fun in the wet though!!

Yeah, checked the results on Sunday night Andrew. Did well mate - 2nd in class to Vereeka is a big effort!!!!! Great standing lap - that's where you got them mate. Racing sharpens the start and go hard reflex!!! Now I know they do standing start Supersprints, we may have to get down there - NSW is too soft to return to this type of format due to the soft PRB brigades.
Now I am worried ...... no chance of ever racing near you now
Cheers.

looks like it was a good day out apart from the rain!
bob 37's and it needs serious work? and chooie 40's with 1 go at it in the dry? you guys are nuts!

Hey guys yeah was fun despite the rain. I ended up with a 1.52 in the first session in the morning so pretty confident on a full dry day I should be in the 1.40's somewhere buy the end of it. Will have coilovers in buy next time to so they mite make a differnce as well. Sorry I didnt catch you bob spent most of the day changing tyres around lol

Andrew,
Nice work and another great video.
Looks like you are getting the hang of the new Dog box.
