RE: Race report - for those who are interested.

Hey Mark.  I was wondering if you could send me your email address, as I would like to ask you a few questions about improved production racing and the requirements.  I am thinking of running 2.0ltr class here in Vic and need some advice/questions answered.    Appreciated.

Hi guys,   Just a quick report to let all those who are interested know how we went at Eastern Creek on the Weekend.   Put simply - Bad Weekend!   Qualifying - I ran the same set up as last year, only problem was the track was not as hot, so the tyre pressures were too low! Plus we got baulked by other drivers. The end result was 16th position on the grid (out of 25).   Race 1 - Bad start, but worked my way up to 13th position by the end of lap three, then on lap four something in the gearbox broke, and I could not select 5th gear (pretty important at Eastern Creek) and lost a few places before the end of the race. The end result was 16th position and we withdrew from the remaining races.   The good thing was the new engine was going really well, revving up to (and sometimes beyond) 7,000rpm. Also the suspension in the race was working fantastic.   Lots of work to be done before the next round at Wakefield Park in 6 weeks. The car is already in pieces again (I'm sure it is in pieces more often than it is together) and parts are being modified all over Sydney. The joys of Motor Racing!   For more info you can check out the web site - it get's updated pretty regularly. www.angelfire.com/retro/mpamotorsports   If you have trouble getting into the site, try again later.   Cheers,   Mark.   --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
