Yep, top work Phil... gets off the line well too... running relatively low boost from what he mentioned to me the other day, like 0.6 bar... which I imagine in the wet, is the way forward :).... Looks seriously stable..... also he\'s running new(ish) dive planes, which could well be helping to keep it under control.... good times :)

Vid, from the scooby that was chasing:

Nice video Phil, thanks for posting that up. Please post up dates and venues for any future races. I would like to try and get to any that might be in the southern part of UK.

Good to see the FD can be quick in the wet. Are you willing to share your chassis setup?
 
After a wet trackday on Saturday it’s clear mine isn’t optimum in the wet, so trying to figure out what might work better.

After trying to get past that red/blue car for endless laps, I can fully understand the fist in the air after he spun out and you finally managed to grab 1st place! 10/10 for pushing him into an error.

Horrendous amount of water on the track :2eek

Thanks for posting, I enjoyed watching that Phil :cheers
