I mean you got passed by that green mini pretty fast and is it the same that overtake you once more around 8' ?

Then from 4 on it looked much better !


There are infact two green Minis. One is Jani's of Finnish Cabrio fame. He sailed past me. Need to gain at least one more second per lap until next year. The other one, I sail past *wink*

I haven't had it rolling roaded after new jets and the Megaphone, but the plugs looked a bit white, so I've changed to BP8Es plugs. They 7s seemed a little hot. It's running faultlessly so very happy.

Car does look very nervous. Those spins probably also down to cold tyres?

Robert, you're wrong. It's perfect. Cold tyres and too fast turn in. My own fault *wink*

It doesn't look that dissimilar to our car. The short wheelbase is always going to be a challenge to the rear end on fast corners, but better that than the front washing out.

Thats very similar to my first windage trays but they kept splitting between the long slot and the bolt hole at the front

I seriously doubt it!

What did you make it of? Aluminium? I've been concerned about the same thing actually. This is stainless steel.
