Well, I think I've managed to get the time off, so I've filled out the entry form :)


That's great news Rick.

No doubt that Rick is the Champion but I was awarded the trophy
and it went straight t the pool room. Nailed, riveted, and glued.


You deserve a trophy just for showing up :)

I feel like I have run out of excuses not to fill in an entry form :)
 
Just applied for holidays so see how we go. I might be on a permanent holiday by then anyhow :(

Hang on to that trophy Doug you deserve it. I feel the beams has an unfair advantage over a normal NA with a 30+ horse power advantage. It should be competing with the turbos and would have won that class. Looking forward to November.

Dodgee. I don't mind what the trophy was awarded for (probably just because I entered).
It stays with me!  I think Rick's pedalling might be where the advantage is.
But I'm running lightweight racing clutch fluid too.
That's more of an advantage than the Beams thingy.

Damn, I don't have any of that.

Might need to get some before November

Yeah I'm sure it would improve your performance.
I bought two bottles from a bloke couple years ago.
Bloody expensive at over $90 a bottle but well worth it.
Went back to get some more but he had already left the venue?

Hey Doug, you forgot to mention that you've lightened your car by removing the plastic cover in your frunk... that would have made a huge difference in performance :P

Possibly correct in stating the Beams gives me an unfair advantage, but Danti managed a quicker best time than me on Tuesday, and might have won the class if he'd been there both days. The Beams doesn't have anywhere near the maximum torque (or the spread of torque) that the turbos and V6's have. If you had to separate the 3SGE's based on power/generation, then you'd have to do the same with the turbos as the gen 3 has a substantial advantage over the gen 2.
It's interesting that i would have won the over 2 litre class lol
 
I'm pretty sure Doug was taking it easy to give the rest of us a chance

Bit of quiet about that frunk lining please.
I had to rip it out so that the bloody scrutineer could get a decent grip on me battery terminal.
Yeah sure. Just coasting along. Didn't want to demoralize anyone.
Especially the bloke in the Ferrari !
Had a bit of a tussle with AJ. too.
Love to see em spin while pressing em.
All great fun. Wouldn't be dead fer quids.
