CSLCup Snetterton Race 2 Video

Folks

Finally managed to get my video online from race 2. Some may not be aware but I had to end qualifying early due to gearbox problems, and after resetting the box on Sunday morning we discovered it wouldn't go into gears 2, 4 and 6

I missed race 1 but managed to cobble the car together for race 2, albeit with a shakey gearbox. I started from the back of the grid, and you can hear the gearbox problems throughout the video, particularly on the back straight

I setup two video cameras for this last race, one facing backwards, so I've combined the two vids into this one. It starts to get very slightly out of sync the further into the video you go, but you'll get the idea

Sorry for the poor driving - combination of me hating high speed circuits and not really being focussed with the gearbox problems mean its a bit crap. But still, a CSL video is always a good sound

Excellent video Steve. Such a pity that box is playing up. Manual box for next season?

That must have been soo frustrating.

Do you data log your laps Steve? if so what were your corner entry speeds????

The datalogger's not working for some reason, I've not managed to log all season. I'll try and get it properly sorted and working over the winter!

Corner speeds = too slow
Straight line speeds = too slow
Pit Entry Speed = perfect

I was considering that, but John Thorne was telling me there's all sorts of problems converting a CSL to manual, regarding the wiring loom etc

its doable but expensive and time consuming. I rekon fix the problem, as I'm 00% confiden that it can be fixe.

I ended up double shifting into 6th quite often. You don't have a spare gearbox now Curly?
