Found a plastic rear window and ordered some blue gelcoat to make my boot lid skin hopefully get the car lighter for the next race.

Nice! Change rear doors windows too?

Tony Hunter has just posted his race and I can now see just how fraught the racing was behind me.
Staggered how much FLAME comes out the back at times, I can only put this down to the Lucas Octane Booster I was running for protection

BTW the mental 205 is a car I have seen win many times in different formulas, its a very well sorted car!

Hope you enjoy--- I did

p.s. I was very careful about the Octain Booster as some are oxygenated and will change the map, this one has no added oxygen and is even listed for use in Rotarys

Another great perspective on your race. Some really close, but clean racing going on behind you there

Thanks for mending the link Malcolm

re japi · April 03, 2018, 06:04:06 AM

That is some good racing. Very close. Fully agree with those commentators...

205 had adjustable rear wing

That Honda is really really close all the time...

Btw, that one gent in Facebook had a good idea whats "wrong" with your car. You sit on wrong side of it!

Thanks Jarno ,
The gent is a friend of mine who now lives in Canada and like you they have the steering wheel on the wrong side

re japi · April 03, 2018, 02:00:18 PM

The reasons you drive on the wrong side of the road Jarno is down to the French telling you too....and the reason we drive on the Right...(the right side

) is the former Great British Empire! the subject is quite interesting on wikipedia...worth a read..give me a Maclaren P1 and ill sit in the middle

on the subject.
