Savage day. We had a good few cars on track, and I was sharing the little yellow Seat with Enda. It was my first time on track in a few years, and my first time on the International Circuit, always too busy getting everyone else's car sorted.
Done a good few 2:13's in the Seat, which I was happy with for my first time. The Seat still has an open diff, so that's the next job to do. Enda, having a bit more experience of the track got it down to 2:08. Passed a good few cars, Impreza, Skyline, and a good few feck'n Civic's. The brakes on the Seat are savage, brilliant stopping power, and great feel, and no overheating, just ask Dan, Brian and Enda. I drove a few laps in the Time Attack Evo, unbelieveable, you don't have time to think between corners. The power and grip are unnatural, drive it on the throttle out of most corners.
Liam had a Fiat Coupe Turbo out for it's maiden voyage on Mondello, and had a great day. Brian who now runs Philip Burdocks car was flying all day. I had hoped he would break the 2 minute barrier, as this is his first time in the car, and a different beast than he had before. Second session, and he does a 1:57. That was brilliant.
Will have to get building my own car over the winter, but will struggle for time to do it.
