At least that race gave you a chance to heat cycle your tires... ;D
The peanut section, 10-14 was especially slippery, for me at least in the Sunday Feature, and uhm, for Lane and the G-man too in this Saturday heat by the looks of it.

Pffft, you can see me in DC's car in your mirror trying to get ahead of Mike for oh, about 15 seconds....  And LOLZ vs the G-Man.....! The power is in the cylinder head and exhaust extrication, no header required... ;D T |

Defo not a stellar launch out of there by the G-Man but go back and look from 3:47......his wider line negates the run you had on him with your car pinched down and the cars are dead even for a few seconds, THEN you pull him......all 4th gear top end.

Finally here is the Double Nickle race! It's really long, but it was lots of fun battling with Mike and then eventually chasing down Teddy the Great ;D vimeo.com/40787966 |

Chris W - I guess now you know why the 007's power was gradually lessening... ;D
I never really noticed when I got out.....felt about the same as Frankie... ;D

David got the car on the dyno yesterday, I must have been talking too much smack, he inadvertently put a massive restrictor plate on the car and cut the horsepower down to seventy. No matter how many pony's were cut down, it still felt good to go play with you guys, great racing, great fun!

No matter how many pony's were cut down, it still felt good to go play with you guys, great racing, great fun! Chris Yeah, he called and told me what he found....freed up, 130-odd aint too bad. Hey, at least it's an excuse for my lap times on Saturday...  Filter must have just started to clog up even though Dave said the car went from 1.26-1.29/30 on Friday. Oh well, I kept decent pace with the cars that I normally run around with Frankie so I just thought it was normal. Compared to both cars, DC's low on power, Eon's car pulls out of the hole, brakes and turns like it weighs 1000lbs. less. It's more knife edge though when you are at the limit, not near as much forgiveness.....especially on non treaded tires. Of course, you'd never know that from watching his vids.....he's way smoother than me, to the point where it doesn't look like he's really uncomfortable or putting in much effort. When I watch his races, it looks like he coasts a lot and can be on the gas more and harder on the brakes....but when you try to follow him, you see that the real deal is, he's carrying way more speed than you think.... ;D T |

He is an excellent driver no doubt. Now that the 007 is back to normal, you need to try it again when possible, ou need at least a sporting chance against your boy. ;D
