Some disappointing news regarding the Monday trackday. 
The car spent two days with the tuner but was unable to solve a problem with fluctuating AFR's which stopped the tune from being competed so I cannot run the car. 
We checked all the usual suspects: compression/cam control/injectors,etc but ran out of time to solve the problem so I will be just coming down to say hello. 

That sucks big time 😥😥😥😥😥

I don't have a spare car. After spending 100 hours trying to get it ready then having this annoying gremlin stop me in the 12 hour, I am happy to just come along to catch up and work on a plan for 2019.

Nice video Glenn. Would have been nice to hear the car though, anyway of turning off the music?

There wasn't much engine sound because the camera was on the roof. There was a lot of wind noise which is why I chose to use music this time. 
This one has some engine sounds with the new setup -

That's such a quick lap but should see it into the 1.03's in 2019.

I'm going to buy some soft compound tyres for my next set. That should help it a lot.

For some reason it was hard to get traction on the day even with Rosie's low power and running new AO50's !
