Post by pablo »

With just a week to go until round 1 how are people gettong on, hopefully better than us. We haven't been able to sort our problem yet due to the weather so this saturday is going to be a busy one :roll: I'm collecting a new rad today along with a few other bits and then tomorrow we should be starting on the cat about 8 am :o
Sunday i'll be working on the car myself as Bart is off to santa pod to play in his Gt........Kids :lol:

Alignment and change the gearbox/diff oil to do today and I am all finished bar any unforeseen problems.... which fingers crossed there wont be. There are a few things on the nice to do list that can be done then but nothing that will make or break the weekend.

Hope you guys get it sorted in time 8)

Best of luck guys. No where near the fanfare this year that there was last.....not just on this forum but across the various sites (GTR, MLR etc are all much quieter)

Nice use of priorities from young Alan, I take it he must be confident that everything is still on track>

I think a lot of people are being very cagey about what they are doing and from what i hear an awful lot of them are still waiting on engines, suspension etc before even turning the key on the car. Not a position I would want to be in.

1 year later and i can still remember the excitement and nerves building up to round 1 little did i know what time attack would bring me

glad this year ive stepped down as work is so good at moment that commiting to another year would mean customers suffer again.

good luck to all guys doing it this year and hope you all have fun :-D

I think all the hype and buzz has gone out of the Time Attack as people realise just how far they have to push their cars and how much of your life it takes over.

Is the gain worth the pain :grin: ....,.Only if your a sponsor :-D
