Back out with mine at Oz yesterday... early speedo problem was cured.. then did a reasonable run in round 1.. round 2 & 3 just couldnt get into it.. rd 4 changed nowt, other than my attitude lol!! 51st in round! one little mistake in the last lap cost me 5 secs... 12 306 i got so would have been soooooooo close to a 13 (plus higher up the qual list) if i didnt have that mistake!! did consistent 25 sec laps bar 1 with a 24 sommit lap, then my mistake lap of 29/30 secs.
Made the H.. but knew i should by higher.. but had a fab race, started 4th and finished 2nd.. not one mistake!! checked the time afterwards 13.321.. I know you loose some distance as you start on the main straight but it was the consistent 24 and 25 sec laps i was chuffed with!! so after a disapointing start i was well pleased!!
I really need to just be more relaxed about my races.. and just drive my race rather than psych myself up and be all tense etc..
All in all well chuffed with the pred.. first time with the new steering parts on etc at a meeting.. and the car felt so much easier to drive.. and to drive smooth...
Thanks goes to Kev for having a look over the car and making a few changes to it.. much appreciated
Cant wait for EPR now
Cheers
