Now I feel so emparassed. :/ Dammit... I know I going to hear about that

I wasnt goint to puke, just felt really bad. Weird thing actually, I was really enjoying the ride, like chearing for Jon, then suddenly...

In my defense, Im a bad go driver, I hate it. And I have inner ear problem which cause me to feel bad sometimes, like in aeroplane...

Excuses aside, Jon really can drive and that car performed suberd. Turn in, braking, car really amazed me. And makes good power too

Anyhoo, thanks for the opportunity to ride with you Jon

cheers mate...only jesting with you...its pure GOLD! lol

Your great company mate and your passion for rotarys is epic! and the other Japanesse Marques! i look for ward to the photos!

Dammit Jon!

Btw, what hitted that windscreen?

I think that problem is that oilcooler lines, that you showes. Seemed like they are leaking...

You wont install power steering back?

Yeah, that clunk sound was weird...

Orher than that, car feeled really good.

Debating the steering i liked the manual feel...prob with power steering is you can over correct...and lack of feel....but a pig on road.

Jarno... sorry mate i just watched the first session vid and you clearly stated go in the pits...in the video. soz mate.  its a funny vid though i was nearly wetting myself....

No problem its difficult to hear in car and when you are trying to race...

As I said, I really hate being co driver. my inner ear problem causes me to feel like crap, actually quite easily.

And car was cornering SO FAST, especially in thru that S turns! I didnt realize that it cant do that I did enjoyed the ride, before you really attacked those s turns

No it didnt.. not after 3 laps, maybe 5th or 6th lap

But really, cars cornering speed really surprised me! Nose turns in so fast and effortless. Just amazing, especially at those s turns...

Yeah in the grand scheme of things it performed really well...i was prepared to go home via green flag rescue so happy as can be. Stiffening up the rear a couple of clicks sorted the body roll...2nd session was epic....apart from the clutch leg cramp.
I think ive gotta remove sump and reseal..i think the oil on the subframe has blown out from the sump seal.
Only lost approx 650ml in 2 sessions just looks worse as goes everywhere...

Interested in your manual steering comments Jon. Silverstone was my first opportunity to try the manual steering on track and it felt superior compared to my power system.
Feed back for the front tyres was superb. I will stick with the manual system, but you may need a different rack !
