My 245 rears look like they rub some of the chassis when the suspension compresses daz.

Brilliant effort team DWall!!

I think I know what happened to those 2 seconds, the line round the final hairpin was slightly 'unorthadox' ? Unless there was a spill on the circuit I couldn't see.  :)

Congrats on the result guys. Makes me wish I'd entered in my Elise as a OHW as I did a 1.38.5 in 6 laps of qually (NSSCC) with only 165bhp. Only dry running I got all weekend. :( Enjoyed the video. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera in on Monday. Dan

To be honest its not just about weight, the biggest thing I noticed from your video was that even with a lot of extra power its difficult to make up for slow corner exit speeds. What tyres do you run Darron? Dan

They're certainly sticky enough. I'm running on A048s. I'm not a fan of the power delivery of turbo cars. Makes it difficult to get on the power early enough. I'm running 165bhp from an N/A 1.8 K series and the car weighed 840kg with me and fuel at the end of qually. I weigh nearly 120kg though so the car's pretty light. :D Dan

Made it more unsettled which really surprised us as we didn't think it was doing anything.
