Just had this from Billy, but think it clashes with Cadwell for most of you? Here for ref anyway, I'll probably head up if I can blag an entry:

Hi all

"Flame & Thunder" (Saturday 10th November) is taking shape now and there
will be a variety of hot food (curry, lasagne etc). I have the costings for
this and it will just be possible to keep the entry fee to the usual amount
for this event (

Aye, clashes with Cadwell unfortunately.

Good day! After numerous laps, warm tyres and a full day setting up the KWs me and Ben got unofficial 51 and 56 second laps respectively, taking at least a second off our PBs.

Hope the Cadders crowd also faring well.

Excellent stuff chaps :thumb:

That means Ben actually used 3rd gear.

51?

Hopefully you'll have forgotten it all by next season so the rest of us will have a chance

Was it the c/w or anti c/w track?

I can confirm he was using 3rd just before his off

(no damage)

cw, no way I could do that on the acw track. Got some setup data to share with you at some point Gerry, was a v useful sesh.

Ben had an off?

But he doesn't go fast enough. Sure he didn't nod off?

(Sorry Ben :lol: )

Look forward to your recommendations. The one and only time I fiddled with the settings was at Hethel, just before checking the strength of the tyre wall. :roll:

:lol: I kept him awake by shouting POWAAAR at him from the pax seat.

Mine is more lairy now but have dialled out most all the understeer. Very pointy but quick when the lap comes together.

Does lairey refer to something you've done for more power? If so, what?

Do tell 8)

No, lairy as in oversteery. Purely through shock settings. Cant remember if you are suffering with that but if so I have a cure
