What you think of the courses, did i miss the best event so far?
BigPower Sprint Champ Round 3 Abingdon
Morning fella's
Just about returning to a normal colour after some bad sunburn on my head and face from Saturday!!
Excellent event, ran loads smoother than last year, they had 3 ques fort Scrutineering so that was pretty quick affair compared to last year.
The new GTR is an awesome bit of kit, watched it finish a couple or run and it looked so composed, no roll. no pitch, nothing!! Thats my excuse anyway.
As always, when unde pressure I drove as hard as I could, and again, as always, you can always go faster but thats Sprinting! In the morning on the Abingdon course I overdrove tha final timed run on the last fast lefthander to the finish, went in too quick and had to lift, then went into a big 4 wheels drift and lost time, I'm sure it looked good but was slow.
In the afternoon I was determined to beat the might of the GTR but again, was beaten by 0.25 or so....oh well, least I tried, I bogged the start on the last run slighty after having perfect launches all day I did take off 1.5 seconds from the Abingdon course from last year, and 1.7 seconds from the Bentley course so I was trying!!
I was very impressed with my new suspension set-up, makes the car corner more flat, and I flet I had more grip, there is more set-up to do tho, need to lower it a touch and twiddle with the damping and rebound a bit....then I think I should be a bit quicker, all I need then is more power, better brakes, lighten the car, get faster myself etc etc.....
All in all a great day, Harry and Russ seemed to be having a ball....and they defo have more time in them with more experience and practice!! They were improving everytime out, so well done chaps!!

Can someone post D10 results when they're available please?
Logan, I don't know how accurately they lay out the courses year to year. My lasty year's times were slower than the previous although I'd fully expected to have been quicker.

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away!
