Donington 31st August with Opentrack.

[Bealo]

Great couple of days with some old and new friends.....

Been to long since the last catch up and it was good to see old friends again. Steve as always is a gent and good to meet young Tom. Alex,Yanto, Bounce, Duncan, 3Wheels and of course my number 1 mucker Shimmy

Thanks goes to both Shimmy and billy for going out of there way to get us all together.

Good to meet new faces/friends as in O'neil, Sy (top peddling),Jez and many more that i've missed.

Finally figured out that the reason why the Pork was going into limp mode was that the inlet temps were getting to hot and the car was shutting down...

This won't happen again as the next time i return the Porks engine will have been fettled along with upgraded everything and will have 700bhp so Beemers watch out lol.

I'm just home from a good piss up with Dazza and his friends.... Had to show them how it's done Thai style lol...... Stag doooooo anyone!!!!

Once again had a great time with good people and i'm looking forward to many more next year....

Happy Days

BUT it did inspire me to press the loud pedal a bit more in the afternoon and up my game a little

What did you get down to in the afternoon Shim? if you got a clear lap!!

Next time please dont rub my leg going through the curves! could have all gone wrong

Got two clear laps in morning (1m20.6+) and one clear lap with a a 1m 19.7 in the very late afternoon when things got a little bit better.

Overall my theoretical best was 1m 19.0s (making up all best sectors) so def a big improvement and I only think because of watching you drive, reminded me to stick to gas brakes and cut out all the crap I between

Thats a good lap Mate. I only went a couple of tenths quicker 1.18.8 but dont have the theroetical best on my lap timer

Bit of a shame it was quite busy at times but really enjoyed the day.

I think I may invest in a proper system. What shall i buy for sensible money? Must be easy to use!

Nathan on hear can sort you out. Ie used Performance box which has display and good software to check times and quite a few use it so can compare data if wanted. vBox also same but better gps and 2 cullet cams attached. There are many others I think these days but Perf box even though old is pretty easy to use for data only and only couple of hundred ££ or cheaper second hand
