Anglesey Video Race 2
Discussion
Here is the on-board footage from the slick tyre shod T350R for race 2 of DTEC at Anglesey last weekend. Some great battles in difficult conditions and top driving throughout the field.

I must admit the car felt surprisingly predictable and I managed to find a nice balance in the race given the bent front wishbone and vintage rubber. I must thank joo as always for a cracking job repairing the car on Saturday. I'd always prefer more torque though, I think we're giving away nearly 200lbs to DCs Tuscan. Interestingly the cars were all well matched in the slower twisty sections in the wet. I seemed to get an advantage mainly under braking into rocket and found a bit more grip with a tighter line on the fast back section which is where I managed to get the overtakes done by holding onto 3rd gear. Just a shame about the oversteer moment at the medium speed turn1, just no margin for error in the conditions and you run out of track so quickly when you're on the limit.
Plan is still to change the engine spec for next year to minimise the power/torque deficit so no more racing for us until 2015.

Well if you have 280lbft you are 100 shy of.mine! Not sure what DC has, was slightly less I rhink (but.more.power) before his refresh...
My engine out and booked in for 23rd to get looked at! Hoping something as simple as nipped rings or similar and not bent rod/crank!! Find out by end of month and hoping to use OP as a test day ready for 2015!
