That's good Mike. I was just about to ring you to see if you had booked. Yes Scuffers and Geary will be going, although not sure when Geary is coming. We're testing for the whole day too. See you there Mike.

Got a mornings test at Snetterton tomorrow which should give a real chance to run the car through its paces and an opportunity to see back to back times.

Fastest lap last year was 2:07.632 we would have needed a 2:04.2 to beat Romain there last year.

like to suggest 2:00 flat is a more realistic target.....

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit :rolleyes:/>


Explain to me why knowing a fundamental thing like SCR (particularily on a boosted engine) is bullshit please?

As usual, you are quick to judge (negatively and condescendingly as usual) when someone asks a perfectly sensible thing. People like you spoil this site which your constant digging.


Who said it was directed at you? :rolleyes:

As usual, too quick to jump to conclusions, when someone says something in a thread in which you commented.

It was actually a tongue in cheek reply to LY_Scotts reply ;) (about foofoo valves) Perhaps I should have quoted his reply, just so you knew it wasn't directed at you?

It's ok, you can apologise any time you like :lol:

Warm old day today but track was spot on. Only had the morning booked and didn't get a huge heap of time on track but we got the car down to a 2:03 with loads still to give before a popped MAP Sensor sent us in for an early bath. i am still driving like a fanny, braking too early and not being bally on the corners. I was just staerting a new hotter session when the sensor popped and we would have gone quicker having had some good guidance as to where I had time to save. I can't believe the car is now a dab at 50m and turn in at the end of the pit straight.

Good time! These MAP sensors seem a bit volatile, is there a better/more durable type out there?

Not for the Courtenay remap. Remote fitting with a piece of tubing is your best option. Plus carrying spare sensors with you... :happy:

Sorry you didn't have the best of days but at least got some time in Mike where did you get the sensor, if it was from CMS somewhere last year near Oct, they may of had a bad batch. Mine packed in before the MOT and Nicollow had the same both came from them. I have a spare new sensor you can borrow as spare. CMS replaced both under warranty
