Subject: 14" wheel test day

Hi all,
 
To all those who were interested in the difference between the 13" wheels and 14" wheels I am afraid I still do not have an answer!
 
We took the race car out to the track last Friday to test a  number of things, including the 14" wheel combo. Unfortunately while we were bedding in a new set of brake pads, something has failed in the gearbox (2nd time this year!) This meant that we only completed four laps before putting the car back on the trailer and heading home with our tails between our legs.
 
The gearbox should be out of the car by the end of the week, and be back to our gearbox man by the weekend. He suspects that it is simply a shim that has let go and allowing too much movement of the cluster shaft.
 
Our next chance to test will be around the 21st of June (Eastern Creek), hopefully I can still borrow the 14" wheels to get a comparison.
 
Cheers,
