I have to say that I can't remember ever struggling so much as I did today.
Several reasons that I won't expand on here. However, some were car related, and others, more obviously, driver skills.
Some cars suit some drivers, and others it seems do not.
However, I must extend my gratitude especially to Al for his words of advice. It made an instant impact. Also to Steve B. for his help and words of encouragement as usual. Rob Forbes, pity we could not programme the esc. I will try and sort that for my next time out. The weather was good, albeit a little breezy.
See you all next time, provided my testing on Wednesday sees some improvement.
Brian always a pleasure to help and give advice, tame the cars a little more, use your clutch to soften the acceleration and will help hook the corners up. Practice Wednesday ill spend some time on the rostrum to see if I can offer any advice.

Seriously though, I often say how good this club is and today reaffirmed my reasons. The lengths the chaps at TORCH go to to encourage new blood in to the sport despite age is exceptional. I had a loverly chap come and have a chat who is just starting out in his 60's who said part of the reason is because of the welcome he received from this club! How frickin awesome is that, good luck to him!

Thank you for a great day, well worth every minute of the 14 hour day

Lastly, 4th visit for me and great improvements every time to an already first class venue/track. Nice fence work

Matt Owen
Appreciate the great feedback, the work is never done, getting closer to where we want things, rewarding when the racing and atmosphere support the efforts,
Thanks Steve
