As always, Warwick was a blast this year.
Thanks to Michael and Sarah Nash, and Laurie Gooley for helping out on the day, for fast turn around,
and sharing ideas and observations.
Last run of the day for some reason "merged" into the other lane (sorry Andrew!),
but other than one run where I missed third gear, I was happy to flog the crap out of the car.
I was pretty nervous on the first run after a 17 month absence from driving a manual car,
but it all worked out fine.

More development as usual.
I think i found the reason for the car changing lanes.
A small pin hole at the base of a dowel hole in the rocker area
was spraying a mist of oil across the engine and onto the right tyre.

Unfortunately any gains' origins will be inconclusive,
since I have done some more exhaust work also,
from the valve, all the way to the stinger tip.
Plus new crank trigger as well.
