Ok, i adjusted the front end a little again to get back some of the steering i'd dialled out previously.
Hopefully i'd now be somewhere in between and it'd be Good...


So, into the 4th round of our Winter League


Again was seeded in the Top Group, so i Am getting Better !!! :P


Heat 1,

Was off at No.3.
Silly mistake at the end of the 1st lap saw me last. Oh Well, 5mins to go...

It actually went ok, the car was pretty good, and really only let down by My mistakes.

Finished 3rd


Heat 2,

Basically read the above.. B)

Finished 3rd


Heat 3,

Changed the tyres and the rear toe in block.

Went Better, still some silly mistakes creeping in, but getting fewer.

Improved my laps, upto 26 Laps now. Reckon there's another 2 there though.

Finished 3rd


Heat 4,

Made a Really Big Effort not to make a Mistake on the 1st lap for the 4th time !!!!
Got through and then carried on to have a Really Good Race.
When i did make the odd mistake, i was back on it and catching people in front and then getting passed them.
The car was going sooo well.

Finished 3rd, just missed 2nd. But got my Laps upto 28 !!! Looking back after the race i could definatly see where i could have got that upto 29.

My next Real Major target is to get a 30 Lapper. It would be Awesome if i could.



Well i finished the night in 4th place overall. The one guy in the 2nd Group had driven awesomely all night and beat me by 1 second dead !!!!

He actually marshalled for me a few times and said my car looked Really Good and it was just my over zealous driving into turn 1 that got me into trouble a few times. Otherwise i'd have easily got him and maybe the 2nd place guy 8 seconds in front of me.


So, to sum up... A Really Good nights Racing and i can feel and see that i am getting Better now, the smoothness is starting to come and the mistakes are getting less silly, and more just a happening.


Well... 3rd in the Championship

I am 1 point in front of the guy behind me, who is better than me really and finished 2nd this week. But you never know....
