Want me to knock up a non-heater, heater? Just one of the fans with a duct for the cabin. Should give you twice the amount of air flow without any of the weight from the matrix.

A must see; grab a cuppa with the boys at BoT ... this clip is almost as good as "f*ck you, I dont want to die..." LOL

 

In all seriousness; guy in Supercarchallenge showing some proper skill in traffic management in a STW BMW 320: 

 

That clip alone is why I would not want to do anything like single make series or Time Attach, multi class racing is where the fun is!

You might wanna look at getting one of these?

Weighs too much!!!
Bollocks to that! ESPECIALLY on a grid with 44 cars, keeping a cool head and your focus will be more important than a few kg!!

You should wear that every race anyway, lactic acid build up in the muscle will significantly decrease allowing you to attack paddock hill on lap 50 with the same rigour as on lap one!

We are very, very far away from F1 so don't laugh at that. But what Schumacher did - first F1 driver to consider a fitness regime - definitely helped him be a legend.
It is called MotorSPORTS for a reason...

 

 

did you just mention fitness regime

 

I think we just sit Mark on some bags of ice for the race

I believe that is the sound of the straight cut dog box gearbox

Id keep a close eye on the Clio's this time mate. 

 

Maybe bring a print out of what these things weigh and put out in BHP from the RenaultSport website. No way that is a Class C car. 

Even if power read out shows less power, those things prob have ECU with wet / dry power outputs ... easily done!

For those that are thinking of coming on saturday or Sunday we are not where we were last time. We're still in the lower paddock, enter the lower paddock and immediately turn left then after about 40m the road bends to the right, follow it round and we are second on the right next to the Brooklands College team.

So finished second in class, seventh in race. Three laps from the end the car started vibrating badly when on the power, managed to nurse it over the line after spinning on the last lap. Seems there s a problem with the diff so we are now removing the gearbox and have a replacement on the way. Its going to be a late night!!!!

Well done for today. I love the idea of fitting a gearbox late at night to get you out the next day. Top work and good luck for tomorrow! Good to show an na does need constant looking after through a race series despite what some think.

Thanks George, finished putting the gearbox in at 12.30 last night then back to the hotel for 5 hours sleep. Sign on at 8, scrutineering at 8.30, qauli at 10, race at 2. I dont know how Jez and Ben do it, I only passed stuff to them last night and I'm asleep on my feet!!!!!
