Had some fun at the Autosolo today
Got a 2nd in class, behind a well pedaled Caterham, but in front on another, then a Westie + Exige.
So... a nice plaque for the office wall
Had a bit of a water temp problem on the third course cos the rad fan stopped working, so had to stop & fix it (broken wire/crimp).
Meant the other cars in class had done their 4 runs, & I'd only done one, with 2 to count (or ur out).
Just tagged onto the back of the last car & got a second run, which was good.
Then the marsals allowed me to do a third run, if I went straight back out.
Was in the groove, & did a run that felt quicker until the last big turn... found the limit & lost the rear end into a right, saved it, but she was still turning right before the corner so had to flick it striaght then back right.
Consequently ran out of road, & took a cone dead centre into the front, which folded the number plate under & wedged itself under the sump.
Price to pay is a bit of GRP work needed to the front end under panel (usual spot !).
Overall though... a lot of fun for £35 !
Roll on the sprint in a couple fo weeks

there are some times I wish I lived in Englandshire to be a bit closer to all these events to give support.
brilliant that the day was dry for your first Rushmore event. You did damn well going from 62 odd sec's to 56 sec's by the day's end 
My PB there was 54.24 sec's
