Very eventful weekend,had practice day at the creek on saturday ,bedded in new brake pads and tested the 915 5speed transaxle,plenty of top end now
pulling 6500rpm in 5th down the straight box shifts smooth as silk and should handle the hp with out any worries.Had a recurring problem with no1
headerpipe again its the longest pipe and had a tendancy to sag and then xaust pressure would push the sliding joint apart,thought i fixed the
problem in the off season by lenghthening the pipe by 40mm but after20mins of practice it happened again,back to the garage out with the oxy and with
the help of John Ladimatos bent it back into shape ready for the sprint on sunday. Great day nice and hot 120 entries only had two runs in the morning
session before lunch ,car had a lot of lag up till about 4500rpm then would acellerate like a missile very hard to drive smoothly so did the best we
could under the circumstances so much opposite lock i think i wore out the steeing box.Car ran a1m17sec at its last event here but ran a best time of
1m20sec after fitting 25mm lower profile tyres,took a bit of in car footage on the day,you can tell i was pretty busy in the driver seat with a lot of
effort being used,not a smooth lap all day ,car ran 5th in class 4d and 24th outrite. Bit dissapointed with the result as i know the car is a lot
quicker but still a great days racing ,top speed is awsome ,still coming to grips with braking points, willwood brake set up now sorted and is slowing
the car down with very little effort,inother words im braking way to early, just another thing to get used to.Just checked the car out blown flange
gaskit on no3 no wonder it had a bit of lag Cheers Rudi

Seems you have the car pretty well sorted Rudi.
Just being able to finish is a big achievement.
What does 6500 rpm equate to?

Sounds like a wild day of driving
There is always something to chase in the setup I guess. Like to see some of the footage from in car when you get a a chance.

Wild moment in the flip-flop just before the 4 minute mark there.
Acceleration looks awesome.
