TVR 1 Porsche O
Discussion
A brilliant race Perry, well done, a great day!
That short track is always an interesting drive and keeps you on your toes!
People watching probably don't know and for those that don't, the pitstop is mandatory and involves engine off, driver getting out of the car, door shut, climbing in, rebelting and going!
That Porsche that went off at about 24.30 was quite badly damaged from what was effectively just losing the back end!
I assume those cars have ABS so when you jam the brakes on, the wheels don't lock and you carry on in the direction that you're facing!
A plus for the TVR as it will slide and keep on track, (a negative in the wet maybe!).
I hope all went well for the guys on the Sunday as it was showery, any news?

Looks great fun ! What happened at around 3min in when the orange 911 got back past ? Did you lose power ?
Operator error,recently fitted a TKO 600 gearbox and just missed a gear trying to get used to shifting in a hurry.the conking out at druids just after the pit stop was again operator error , I accidently turned off the fuel pumps as well as the ignition but only turned on ignition, car runs whooping great big carbs so conked once fuel was run dry in float bowls.

Tim and Christian seemed to have a good day out, Dean's broke and Jason in the Tuscan couldn't get any grip at all. The Tuscan looked scary in the wet!!That short track is always an interesting drive and keeps you on your toes!
