I enjoyed that alot got my blood pumping....
You gave the race drivers you caught up respect this guy didnt however! Is this the guy that did the do or die move at hammerdown?

Pleased you enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the race because it became tactical, at times I worked out where to overtake backmarkers so he couldn't get me. He was quicker of the chicane because of my gearing, but now I will have just that little more acceleration due to going to the 4.3 over the 4.1 diff.

BTW no it was the car below that did a silly in the 2nd race   
All the best Clive

I think that was the weekend I met Clive n Jon?

Good race!

That bag of paper clips car carries some corner speed.

He nearly took out that 206 on the first left handed kink after the start /finish

I chuckled when the other 206 driver had ash bruneau down the left side and Clive down the right, or so it looked 😆😆

Well definately wide awake now. May as well do a bit, good entertainment captain 👍

Thanks Guys, yes that's the weekend you had the misfortune to actually meet us Jamie :angryfire:.

Ash admitted to me on the podium that he thought his number was up with the 206 he only just missed ???.

Those Cleo things only weigh as much as a paper bags, power to weight n all that  ;)
All the best Clive

He was very good over Avonrise! That takes balls to carry that speed over an unsighted crest.
I dont brake i lift and ive tried not too but my right foot always does!
Looked like grp doors and bonnet too as it was all flopping about.
Rx8 with its suicide doors both have tobe substantial to maintain integrity...maybe something Steve can look at to reduce weight...right in the middle of the car too..
Weld in a b pillar with latch for main door and skin the void...but that makes battery and fuel pump ackward for access...nah...more boost!! Lol

Caught up yesterday with an old mate, Dave Nixon.

You will see below his RX-3 that he still has at Brands back in I think 2001 or 02.

He raced in classic saloons and won the championship in the 1990's and on this day at Brands had an excellent 2nd overall against, Mustangs, Camaro’s etc  :great:

Thanks Jamie, that was a good to watch whilst sitting at my PC  :13:

Great race and a very interesting commentary too. I'm amazed the race carried on with the overturned Camaro in such a dangerous place! Can't believe they'd do that today  :)

Sad to see that Alan is now living with Alzheimer's in Melbourne, but with some of his other racing buddies looking after his affairs.

Quote from that item:

"In September last year (2019) he became only the fourth motorsport identity to be inducted into the Sport Australia Hall of Fame alongside Brock and Formula One greats Alan Jones and Sir Jack Brabham."

Great to see him (and Brock) recognised alongside some more familiar racing legends.

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.
