hi rod
what is your constant time now?
and how many runs have you now done after hitting the mid 12 second bracket?
cheers
gino.

greetings Gino
we have actually made a change on the car & droped around 6 Rwkw on the dyno but like always i dont just rely on the dyno so we took it out to the blacktop to give it a run, i went a consistant 12.92 to 12.96 & Mph were all 107 & 108s

the 12.62 was a bit of a fluke & i have not been able to back my time up but you never know whats around the corner, how about you can we temp you to come out one night

regards

Why was Calder cancelled tonight, the weather seemed pretty clear on the way out there and I didn't hear anything on the radio about it being cancelled. Hopefully it will be on again next Friday.


Steven

greetings Steven
the decision to open or not is made earlier in the day & is subject to the weather that is approaching on the radar

Mark & I left Airport West at around 7.00 PM & the weather looked great but as Mark got to Broadmeadows he said the roads were very wet

it may have rain'd on the track late in the afternoon & if this happens they carnt prep the track as if you try to prep a wet track it just gets worse & there will be no grip at all

hope all goes well for next week
