I have the results now but the formatting doesn't lend itself to a quick copy and paste to here, working on it now but in the meantime a taster...

153mph seems to be a bit of a brick wall - I presume these 3 all had a standard final drive?

[Century Motorsport]

My top speed was done on low boost setting with the head gasket on its way - 5th gear was a waste of time

how does the points scoring work mich?

[michael]

how does the points scoring work mich?

From the regs:

Points are awarded for scoring in the top ten overall from all 3 events, not by class placing.

10 points are awarded for a win, down to 1 point for tenth place. 30 points maximum are available. You can also pick up 1 point for winning each of the shootouts, i.e. handling and drag final. Additionally any car that manages to score overall in all 3 events will receive a bonus of 5 points.

wasn't team mr2 in the club competition then ?

[michael]

wasn't team mr2 in the club competition then ?

Yes, we just didn't score any points

Points go on the overall results for each class and those pesky 4WD things pretty much took over, we got close though.

Did Nathan have some problems on his handling course runs?

[tonigmr2]

Top speed runs are interesting, I managed 157.9 on a standard gearbox last year, and Nik (Freefall) 161. Bit strange they were all grouped together!

Top speed runs are interesting...

Ain't that the truth! The bottom half of that strip just before the timing gear is shockingly bumpy. I got bounced all over the place!

[Century Motorsport]

Did Nathan have some problems on his handling course runs?

Yes - i crossed the line backwards

Only had 1 go then got hooked on the 1.4 mile. The car isnt setup for track use although next year i tend to make more of an effort with the handling... it should be my strongest chance!

Nathan

[redeye32uk]

Yes - i crossed the line backwards
Nathan

Got it on video and your last run..... trying to get it up on youtube but keeps crashing

[redeye32uk]

Right, got it to load at last..... you can see a patch of water about 3 foot long after Nathans burnout befor his last run....>>>

running commentry on my time run - i love the 'he doesn't loose it round there' bit then 2 seconds later im spinning past the line!

Nice work Dave + Dave's son

[EarL]

Nice one Dave. Tell Ollie he's up for an Oscar.

[royashmr2]

My top speed was done on low boost setting with the head gasket on its way - 5th gear was a waste of time

Have i got a low boost setting?

Such a shame at the end of the day. Well done 4 ur time tho.

[Quigonjay]

what head gasket where you using nathan?

They reduced the top speed runs length down yet again this year, from 1.2miles to 1 mile! Local residents moaning will have this reduced to 100 feet by next year if they had their way!
