I think the whole Time Attack classes just don't make sense and how you can have tuners in the club classes is bonkers. I think the classes should have better restrictions eg power, weight etc to make them more competitive.

Deffo agree with Stu about more power means more stresses elsewhere on the car you might not have thought of eg transmission, suspension, tyres, brakes etc etc etc.

Nice write up though but who was on the blurry camera and were they drinking ;)

the focus behind was actually on fire, think paul said his oil cooler broke and went over the engine and caught fire.

Well done guys, great to hear that the car was reliable and performed for you (an issue close to my heart...)

Have to say I agree with the above, seat time will make loads of difference, now it works, drive it as much as you can, then make changes so you can judge whether they make any difference. More power just means more bills and more aggro - speaking from experience.....
