Who liked the track last night. I thought It was a good technical track, but the lay out at the end of the straight, shortened the straight some what, but with restricted space you can't have it all.
Don't know what went of in the A final people where dropping out like fly's. The only down side to this, was the captain was one of them, meaning we will be waiting for the results LOL.

I really enjoyed the track, thought it had a good fast flow to it, I quite liked the end of the straight as it was a little different and it felt like a critical point to get right to put in a quick time. car felt great all night, had to come off in the final as my servo saver came off due to some bad maintenance lol. Anyway great night all round and another well deserved win for Lewis I believe and a solid performance by Paul Wilson put him in second.
On to next week and the final round of the winter series, good luck to all and happy racing.

I too enjoyed the track layout and felt comfortable with it, had a few minor issues but all in all a good night.
Looking forward to the final round of the WS and fingers crossed for the raffle as I have no chance of winning anything else lol

Great track, really enjoyed the flowing layout. Can't believe how well your mi5 was going with two right rear hubs Graham! Bet you are glad you tried it rather than going home.

The track was really good. It's nice to see some variation to the straight it caught a lot of drivers out. It seemed that the rear of the car was critical for a quick lap. Struggled with rear grip most of the night.

It's all about balancing the car, the answer may not be to increase rear grip but to reduce front grip to stabilise the rear of the car in corners.

What do you recommended James lose the rear sway bar. My car was a bit tail happy coming of the straight off power.

Stand rear shocks up one and half turn clockwise on the rear droop (mi5 only, others anti clockwise)......only apply tire additive to the inside half of the front and cover all the rear.....let me know how you get on...

For the final I did quarter turn anti clockwise on rear droop and removed 2 screws from top deck and the rear was better.

You need to measure it with a gauge, droop is probably the most defining factor in how the car drives and if it not right then til be all over place, bring it over Friday lee and il check it for you

Did it stabilise the rear end Paul?

The only down side to donny, is there is not any time to faf or even repair your car.
