Chris. Pete, Steve, Matt. Good luck out there today. You have the right platform and tonnes of track laps to have a decent shot at a class podium finish, most of all have fun and stay safe.

Chris. Woohoo. You are compulsive! Alot of car for the money tho...

Something I found on youtube today, a 911 T resurrection here in NZ. Does anyone know the car or the owner?

Got new tyres, disks and pads to scrub in. Car is better on the road with RS uprights, bump steer is gone. Just come in early in first run as back of car still feels horrible. The solid side mounts and replacement bushes haven't gone in yet, I wanted to see whether it was worn out tires as the problem.......

Enjoy guys - awesome weather for 3 hours of fast driving. Looks like family will keep me up here today but if I get a chance I'll look to raid ChrisB's mailbox and take a gander.

A very consistent race by Steve and Peter. Steve consistently went under 1.20, with a lowest lap of 1.17.2. Peter finished off with some runs in the 1.18 region, running on what he thought was an empty tank.

Chris and Matt were unfortunate with an unidentified cooling system problem. Last I heard they thought coolant was not circulating due to a broken pump impeller. Possibly that blew the head gasket. Whatever the case they retired before Matt had a chance to race

Muppet of the day award would have be the Subaru team effort leaving lock nuts on their race wheels which didn't help when they had to change the wheel.

Some pics from HD today, good to get the 964 back out after the valve adjustment and major service from Steve. Paul and I were the only air-cooled there, he was a very happy boy after tweaking the PSS10s to harder settings.
A perfect day for it. had a minute to zoom by Puke on the way back and get a feel for the endurance, those 911s with LED racks looked serious.
