Raced the car today at last at Worksop. First time out with the car, first buggy race in years, straight into 1st round without practice. Nearly out of the box setup, only 30W/25W oils F/R and the car was great, handled fine on the lippy bit, but mostly cleared the bumps and jumps like they weren't there.
As I didn't have any thicker oil in my box, I decided to change pistons and went for the smaller holes all round, and that was I think a mistake, I should have done it only at the front as now the rear end would want to go over the front over the table top that i'd cleared so easily in rd 1. Drove like a numpty in that round and ended up bending the rear turnbuckle mount.
Didn't change anything for rd 3, only didn't try clearing the table top and even with a bent car, I qualified 3rd, only 3 of us did 16 laps... Two strong finals ending up 3rd in each and 3rd overall.
Very happy with the car, I'm gonna see if champ can sort me out with a new part b4 Batley, and will try and find some 35W and AE springs to put Jimmy's setup.
