Sunday, and wet wet wet wet all day.
What a misery!
I was the only car in class on dry slicks as I don't have any spare wheels or the cash for a set of wet slicks, so the track was hard work for all but I am always worried about crunching the car.
First practice was 60.93....
Starting in 2nd gear was a good tactic but the start was still 3.16 secs.
First race run was 58.4 / 3.14
Second race run was 56.62 / 3.09

The class was won by a country mile by Ray Rowen in the MP43 and he even made it into the Top Twelve run off @ 47.20! Awesome.

Arch rival Nigel in the NG V8 beat me on Kumho road tyres by 0.6 secs, first time he has beaten me in years!

So a miserable 4th in class but in one soggy piece and home in time for the Italian GP.
Big clean-up and dry out tomorrow.....
One more to go at Loton 22/23 Sept.
