I got alot better as the day went on. I got a passanger ride in a caterham, then changed my lines, approach & turned the boost up to 18psi. Very good fun, but it took about 20 laps to really start putting in the quick laps.

Really pleased with how the car performed, apart from the greenstuff pads.

Now need to tub my rear arches, fit an oil cooler and buy another 2 front AO32's

Looking forward to experimenting with bigger, more open tracks now.

What did you find wrong with the greenstuff pads...?

For every action there is an equal and opposite criticism.

Brakes felt shit all day. Got brake fade at end of straight and spongy pedal, not to mension the smell.

The annoying thing is I've got a set of 1144's but didn't have time to swap them.

Sorry about that mate, thats why you ran out of battery for your 91mph Glory run then.

Did you get any decent videos of you at all?

Brake fade at Curborough - you'd been in trouble at a real track then!
