To fulfil a childhood dream (and to resist growing up responsibly) I have decided to Race my Car (WRX STi) in a sprint series called Grudgement Days. I will use this blog page to update followers with developments but please feel free to post questions, ideas, advice or simply just words of encouragement here..... and don't forget to add your name to the list of followers....
I'm joined this time by 2 friends from CADS, in the form of Rob (treb0r) and John (Gunnie). Should be fun
ReplyDelete2nd after 2 runs with 48.26
ReplyDelete1st at break for lunch
ReplyDeleteDown to 3rd now
ReplyDeleteFinished 6th. Bit disappointing to end up 6th because I had no tyres left after lap 5 but hey Ho. You live and learn I guess.
ReplyDeleteUnlucky Willo
ReplyDeleteplenty of spare tyres appear to be the answer - unfortunately a costly answer!!!
Anyway, sort yourself out, I want to be following a winner from Round 3 onwards!! Only kidding - don't kill yourself!
see you around Lingley soon

Cheers mate. I've made a decision on tyres for the next round. Think the GGG compound was too soft for sprints. And the sidewalls need to be stronger than the Toyo R888 gave me. Gonna be going for A Medium Compound Maxsport RB5 tyre I think. They are designed for concrete and other hard surfaces so hoping they'll be ideal. And last a little longer than the R888s.
ReplyDeleteThink I'm a way off leading the championship but hoping to be in clear second place after the next round... That's the goal anyway
