We won!

Qualified 6th out of 15 & finished 8th overall with another class win & fastest lap again.

I ALMOST won!! lol

For anyone doing track days, here's a suggestion... zip tie the orange and white relays into their sockets! After a few too many skips over the kerbs (very spectacularly mind you!) one of mine lifted out of the holder enought to kill the engine on teh last lap! Still.. it was a damn good scrap anyway! The car has a new lease of life after the injectors had a good ol clean!

hi paul, i met you on sunday by your car, thanks for talking to me and my mate, we got a copy of the khumo regs from trevor so we are now thinking of competing next year. that was bad luck with your relay coming out, i have never heard of that before. i will be putting cable ties on mine in the morning now. i wondered what happened on the last lap when i did not see you come past. will try and come and watch another meeting maybe oulton, i love that circuit. stu.

Hi Stu

Yeah I was gutted about the relay as it was just such a simple thing! Perhaps a little too much kerb hopping had something to do with it!! I was having a good race with two M3's and another 325 too!!

If you need any advice with prepping the car you kno where I am and although I don't know a massive amount, I know guys who do!!!

Cheers
Paul
