Really?

Madness.........I bet some of the guys using race fuel still don't have cages in either!

Pleased for Umar as he's being campaigning that RX7 for a while

His FD is a good example of how a car can be developed effectively over time. It would be interesting to know how much it's cost him over the years to get it to where it is now

He actually lives not to far from Alan. The thing is when he started in Time Attack his car was already running 400+bhp.
The main difference in costs is your starting point for example

Ronnie Amis 3dr Cosworth - Tntracing

Had car for approx. 6 yrs - Bought base car and base engine
Had approx 360 bhp - Had to build base engine
Upgraded & developed car - Worked out & sorted problem

Don't get me wrong i'm not saying he's had it easier or spent less but it all depends on your starting point.

It must be a slippery slope for all of you guys. 400hp in an FD3 is easy enough (figuratively speaking) but getting the FD3 to produce that reliably and repeatedly takes a lot more money- like any turbo car I guess.

Club class can't see many cars that don't have more than 25k in them.

Does anybody have a link to the Pdf showing the data for the missing rounds?

Just checked that link and it's all there. Sometimes the site plays up and won't display the info.
Took me a while to get to grips with it, so just in case.

1 click on the date of the round & not the timetable
2. click pdf file icon on right hand side opposite Time Attack

The only round that is not under time attack was Donnington

Croft was not covered by TSL Timings and as far as I know there is no info on times except on the Time Attack website.

Just hover the mouse over the round you want and the times drop down. Croft was round 2.
