A fun day despite all that. Michael R was testing a cool drone and getting great footage. Pace of the day was very relaxed - could easily run more cars in future. Steve turned up in a GT40 replica - impulsive buy a week or so back - max points for cool factor!
Dan and Rob did have a busy day though....
Commiserations John - hopefully just a linkage or something simpler than worst case! You're also welcome to use either S or the R for the regularity trials if you prefer (not air cooled though

John, that sucks mate. I hope it isn't anything significant and you at least got some laps in before hand. Shame about the festival - you put in so much work - i feel for you
Matt. Beautiful RS, just stunning. Lucky man!
Whose is the Orange #9 RSR rep that was there today?

Not to mention Jason retired early when 'missing' problem got worse and various other cars were offline for periods during the day. A fun day despite all that.

Hey, Thanks to all the organisers and helpers for today. Had an awesome day with the GT4.
Thanks to Jeff D for the sway bar adjustment, help and advice, and Ray Williams for the coaching. Lots of fun with Ray in the car pushing the limits and getting very sideways the first time - much better in the second. Definitely helped lap times and and better consistency too.
Sorry to hear about Herman, John.
