Yep 9 second lead to DNF alternator tensioner bolt broke result threw a belt over heating couldn't risk another lap to the flag. The one that got away.

here is qually , first time I have spun for some years so rare footage indeed I put it down to my latest aero mod that robbed me of my usual rear down force more tweaking ( Code for , it didn't work ) needed.

perry with that aero your running on the bonnet i reckon you need to stiffen the bonnet to stop it moving around so much

Hi G,

What and add weight, your having a laugh It's coming off and going somewhere else, just waiting for the boys in Barcelona to tell, as we think that is why we couldn't get the rear to stick with our none heat issues. Thanx for the thought.

what a car will be more aero changes for next outing, getting rid of the bonnet ice scrappers that definitely didn't work as good as hoped. Link to the first spin I have had in the car for two years no idea what happened there, answers on a post card please if you know .........
