Cheers guys for a great weekend! Really enjoyed myself.

Cheers to Lee's mum for the grub and to Lee for a great location of the BEST curry I have every had!!!

Money might prevent me coming to the next meet next month, as it costs quite a bit in hotels and fuel. But hopefully in the summer we shall be down.


Cheers for a great time see you next time!!

Where were you anyway sir? Hey?? Any excuses?

My excuse is i'm under the thumb too!! I'm actually off to Eden park this Sunday and the Mrs gets a bit humpy if i nick the car two Sundays in a row!! Plus i'm planning to do nationals for the first time this year so wanted to try out Eden park, see if it had changed since i last raced there in the early 90's.
I also have the offer of an X6 to try for the day while i'm there and it's a car i've always wanted to try.

hopefully the next meeting, see all the new features

What a nice day, John spot on again in race control, burgers & bacon butties perfect and the weather was great, must thank Pidge for adjusting Jordans controler (just what did you do? - next time TEACH HIM).

Pity about the wrong camera settings, he still got some nice pictures there. A rather blurry picture of my car in action at the end there!! ... He was probably photographing me because I was going so slow and easy to photograph!

Jordan had the right camera settings, I was the fool, managed to take a load at 50th/sec !

So the last blurry one was one of mine, but something about it............

Now who is the better photographer from Andy and JC????

Well Andy did get a picture of my car on it's wheels, pointed in the right direction and moving ..... that was a hard shot on Sunday ..... LOL

I have to give it to JC though for the about to crash / mid crash / stopped crashing sequence ... ...... had enough options to choose from for that though .. LOL


Andy ... just put my RB5 next to the B4 to check the ride height and it makes it so easy to see the difference. You were right, the back end was a bit high on the RB5, that chassis makes it so difficult to judge on the bench. Thanks for the heads up!
It's what Sunday was all about, learning ...... ok and having a great track to run on!!!

No worries ... any info is good info. Car looks perfect on the bench on it's own but when compared to the B4 the diff is about 3mm lower centre - centre so it actually needs to be shafts under level to get the centre of mass at a similar height!

Thanks for the help, always appreciated.
