It was a 10.5 But I don't do lap times , I just go in the look and the lines I take .......

If that makes sence , you know when it's quick of when it's slow ......


Have to disagree Trev - lap times are the most important.

A car can feel very quick but against the clock is actually slow.

Converesly when a car feels slow it can actually be very quick - due to to everything working well - or it could just be slow q15  q15  

Lap times are the only way to tell what is actually happening

The gearing was definately key.But get it right and whoooosh. q3

Last year with the sphere TC i ran at 5.2-1. Sunday I ended up on 5.81-1 and it was awesome.The one occasion that i remember was in the 2nd leg of the A final(so no muppets taking part)me and another car came out of the hairpin onto to the straight side by side. Still side by side after about 20-25ft then SPX Baby its like having a secong gear kick in,if i had been the other car i would have been p****d off.It meant i was probably  more than 6ft in front of him at the next corner. q2
For those in the know it was clear to see the cars on the straights that had the 'cheating' speedo's.
Bring on Brooklands. q19

Well Mark had his gearing right at Coastal Sunday it was going very well , his 13.5 was nearly as quick as a 10.5 !!!!!!!!!!!!! , Mark being a very precise driver was taking perfect lines all day and won the meeting ..............

I would say though if I had realised my diff was broken sooner i feel my little bit extra speed from the 10.5 would have won 2 of the final legs instead of the 1 i did win , but thats off the tread topic as well ..........

I would say the new esc Maek was using was giving him more grunt out of the corners But on the straight I did not feel like he was getting the Turbo affect like the Colchester boys was getting on there much longer straight .....................
