Some good results today Clive, all adds to the total.

Great day, thoroughly enjoyed my virgin visit to brands.

Got some good shots I'll post them over the weekend.

P.s. thanks Malcolm for the use of your posh lens

Huge thanks to my pit crew yesterday. :bravo_2:

The event for me was about Tyres, Tyres and Tyres

De-briefed myself last night and realise the car never felt  as good in the races as it did in qualifying, now know I need to replace my new soft Tyres and replace with mediums, the new softs worked fine at Snetterton but as Brands is so hard on tyres they did not work for me!
Got to be positive, Pole and a fastest lap  53.627 which was less than a second away from last time out on slicks ! (52.899)

In the second race with a hotter track, I asked too much from the tyres too quuick in an effort to get away at the front a fried my tyres and then basically tried to race on chewing gum :(

Here is a video that's already appeared from Rod Birley's car!
I now know 100% I was right not to move as I would have taken both of us out, proper, this way I came home with a car!!

Snetterton this coming weekend, back on slicks   :00123101:
