Those upgrades are really coming together Kelly. Nice work on the wing and thanks for documenting the build for us.
I must say I loved reading about your yellow car back in the day but the new sponsored colour-scheme really suits it.
Thanks, I'm really keen to see how the wing feels this weekend. I'm participating in a 6Hr regularity event at Eastern Creek Sat/Sun. Eastern Creek is where I've really noted the cars understeer behaviour in 2017 and I'm hoping it's resolved now with the square-er tyre widths & increased rake. I'll be running the wing with a low AoA initially to ensure that it doesn't exacerbate the understeer before I increase the splitter/air dam area. I got the Girodiscs on the car earlier this week but not before discovering that the 993 hats I bought from Girodisc do not work with the Big reds I have on the car (The 993 hats are shorter than the hats required to centre the rotors for the 944). Hence I've bought and installed some Lindsey racing hats onto the Girodisc rotors (had to shorten the McLaren floating rotor brass hardware components by about 1mm to achieve that). So .... it will be an interesting weekend and certainly a challenge to stick to a time slower than my PB for the upcoming event considering the car should feel more sorted than it did when I set my PB.

The wing and new brakes were put to the test this weekend and delivered a good result with our ladies team taking out the trophy for 1st placed ladies team in the NSW 6 Hour Regularity at Eastern Creek.
