you were the only one brave enough to get in with me 

[Captain Vimes]

How did the tyres hold up? Did the shoulders wear more evenly than at Anglesey ?

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

they were fine captain 

didnt push to hard on them today 

 

took advice and used 30 psi rear and 29 front and grip was great 

 

[Zoobeef]

What tyres was that psi in?

 

How are your brakes?

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

got a long peddle a few times after 10 mins ish 

 

brakes are shot didnt do as many runs as i usually do 

but luke can comment on brakes 

 

but i did manage angelsey and croft on one set 

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

29 front hot

30 rear hot

[Zoobeef]

So still have quite high wear even with cooling?

 

I mean which make as I found those pressure good on 595s but had to go much lower on 888s!

Good to see a positive result Chill. The car certainly looked like it was confidence inspiring

Yes it ran well nev, dont think i got anywhere near the potential of the car but i am getting there,

[CHILL Gone DUTCH]

Reflection on croft:

 

car was 100% better, turn in was amense  i was getting more confident mid corner, i couldent get the long right hander going in to the left kink right all day the left kink was very hard  to get on the power unless i went in past the first bale very slow 

 

i did lose the brake peddle a couple of times. i should of bled the brakes before i went, the consensus was i wouldent need to do it every track day lol.

 

bringing the power down did help me through the day 

new tires were great 

ARB made the car very pointy which took a bit of getting used to which did cause the rear to be mor skitish under heavy braking 

 

the ads are now finished 

i didnt do as much time on the track as i normally do which has helped to help with brake wear 

 

very happy and think it is a good first step to find the limits of what the car can do, then i can think about running more power but at the moment im happy with its power which was reduced to around 345 hp

 

 

[Nev]

345 BHP is certainly a meaty shove in the backside, I didn't realise you were running so much power till I looked at you flying by those others on the track.
