It was really going well, took third just before the Cedar 'straight' and before Keepers and planted the throttle just out of Keepers. The engine (to my ear) really digs in hard and away it went. The kink in the straight is hard work, the kink and in that a slight corkscrew camber change and it is narrow. We even paint in white that spot so you can keep off the grass...
Came into Fallow at the top of the straight flying well, dropped from 3rd to 2nd, but is was 4th!
Grumbled through Fallow and got 2nd cleanly and blasted off. That was where I left the time, that 4th gearchange...
Car ran fabulously, the McClurge chassis set-up is os easy to use in that you never thing the chassis will become tricky, it is so very neutral.
New clutch is so good, that old one was well past it's sell by date.
Engine still excites, so worth all the work, trouble, strife and £10,000.
What a silly sport this is, but cannot imagine stopping.
Looking forward to Prescott next weekend and keeping close to Roger's Skoda if I can.
