Well Brands Hatch Indy yesterday was a psychology battle, it chucked it down all day till about half 3 / quarter to 4 when the light started to fade. About 10 red flags throughout the day, not many actual crashes, I do remember an R32 going sideways into the tyrewall at Druids. Tuition Session I had early on really helped with the lines, the water spray from tyres was scary at times while closing in. Was difficult to judge the limits with standing water (especially at the dip of Paddock Hill Bend) so never really pushed it, need to go back and do it in the dry.
I took a mini HD camcorder then remembered it was the suction type so not allowed but I'll get another mount or fix something up for next time.
One thing I hadn't seen at other tracks was that brands have big rectangular lights rather than flags which was particularly helpful especially given the poor visibility.
Aaron's dad spun his FRP at paddock hill taking it into the gravel trap, was about 2 hours till the stones were cleared from the calipers and wheel rim which gave the tyre a slow puncture, but I had a passenger ride later on and the RPJ suspension cornered crazy flat even with the increase in ride height!
My car performed well, however I did blow my exhaust before the end of day, think its the 4-2-1 but haven't seen the extent of the damage yet, it is F*****G loud!
Gravel hunt!
