Excellant news mate and a much deserved result

. This year has been a trying one but the important thing is that it has all come good in the end.
Motorsport is a fickel mistress :-D

There have been so many changes during the early part of the year that there were bound to be teething issues. These have taken some time to iron out and although it is not without issues now, I seem to have broken the back of them. (thank god)

Durability is almost there though and my confidence in it and regained love for it are at the highest ever.

The feedback from Phil Glew on the handling will be applied in time for the final TA round along with a couple of test sessions at Snetterton - I may even have a small power hike on the cards to take it to over 500bhp.

At the same time, plans are being hatched for next year :-$

Another 110 miles on track today at Snetterton - awesome day

Lots of novices out so difficult to get a full traffic free lap but well up on my best time there (so I am told

)

Dont worry Gary, you are safe

It worked out at 1.20 but unfortunately the time I was going to spend setting up suspension & aero was spent trying to keep dry when the heavens opens. There was no point doing it after then as comparing apples with mangoes would be meaningless. Hopefully it will be dry next week :thumb:

I believe there is more in it.

Just back Zen after a couple of hours on the dyno testing the MD321 dev turbo on std fuel (no additives)
