Round 2 Symmons Plains 30th March 2008




Well, It was a frustrating day. An oversight with the boost setting and a broken part in the diff put payed to a good result. We finished every race and collected a good points haul all the same.
On the Saturday, I discovered the diff wasn't locked anymore. Don't know why or what is broken as yet. I took it easy for the practice and race 1 unsure as to what might happen. As it was the only thing that happened was I battled for traction all day. Took the spare with us in case. Had the turbo rebuild again after Baskerville and for some reason I had changed the boost setting on the boost control. Anyway, couldn't work out why it was so slow until before the last race. Also the boost wasn't coming on till 4500rpm instead of 3500. But I couldn't use the extra power too well with the diff being broken, just had more wheel spin. Finished 5th overall for the day I believe with 6th and 7th placings.
So its back to go on the dyno again and fix the diff and we should be right for round 3 in May.
I'll have some incar video up later.
