Top day chaps despite being very hot, from reading the other thread I wassent the only one who got the mick taken out of me off their missus when I got home for having a red face. I had to go tesco and pick up some aftersun! :o :confused:

Congats to Ginger for taking Class B which seems to have fewer and fewer entrants, everyone is mod crazy.

Results..

DNF - Did not finish
AWO - All wheels off! :o

Yes though under protest as you know my car is standard apart from the decat and filter. I moved it up a class in this sprint as it made good power on the rollers. :blah:

Cheers. :D

Using 1 week old AO48 Yoko's, suffered from understeer allday though. Tried lowering the pressure due to silly temps on the day but it didnt help.

It was either the tyres were getting too hot, they were too new or they are just shat. :confused: :cry: :blah:

Mine understeered quite badly aswell (toyo r888) but when I looked at the tyres it looked like the rears had been doing most of the work :confused:

My front tyres after a few runs were scorching. Never had understeer like that before. If you was getting it aswell it looks like it could well be down to track temp. :confused:

Maybe, its was deffo worse in the afternoon sessions but I was getting braver by then aswell.
Didn't actually take much notice of the tyre temps but the rears looked like they were getting hot as they had started to get them alittle balls of rubber on them...... where the fronts were fine

Gav went another time before didn;t he mate
Things have moved on
Those thin white metal posts on the straights would be dangerous if close:lol::smthumbup

Yeah Gav was there one time on a RAF sprint, he never did make the ones we did. I think he did rather well on it iirc..

Javelin trackdays go there many times a year, but I don't think it's for sprinting ?
