750MC Hot Hatch 2019 Brands Hatch Race 1

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I'm Gonna try keep the descriptions shorter this time!
The build up to the race was manic, I only started prep the week before the race despite having the whole winter off. Work and normal life was just too busy, and most of my time was taken up with sponsorship hunting.
I was still prepping the car in the paddock when we arrived there the day before to see if there might be any free testing slots, but no.
So into Quali, new tyres, new brakes the lot. Trying to just scrub and bed everything in gently, got 3 laps before it hammered it down. So I was stuck in 6th place.
The race was wet, but the conditions were changing every 5 minutes so again we were last into assembly (I hate waiting in assembly anyway, its just dead time) having left tyre choice till the last second we could.
I don't know where these starts are coming from, but I either get a poor to average start or I just bugger off.
The race was quiet, but I was super happy with pace and the best start to the year one could ask for!

    Its not like you to be late🤣 I never mentioned it before, but the way the rear view camera is merged into your roof is really cool ,a great idea and well executed. It looks like a panoramic sunroof, the first time you see it. Great driving😎 Maybe the guy wishing you to crash, had bet his life savings on the second placed man, to win!

    Thanks man, yea I think that maybe the weather upsets their cars more than mine. Watching them on the Friday test they were very loose cars although very fast! But in the wet I think that lively setup can't make life easy. Plus brands is like my home circuit, we're at combe next which is theirs....so we'll see how well track knowledge plays out. Good luck on your race!

I very much doubt I'll be able to replicate my double race win at Brands like last year, but I'll have fun trying. I have to endure the thirteen hour drive to Croft from Devon first. Must be bloody mad!! Good luck at Combe, I hope they give you a bit more of a race.

    There are 3 classes in our championship. A-260bhp/ton B-200bhp/ton and C-145bhp/ton. Along with that are varying degrees of freedom for the faster cars in terms of suspension, brakes, gearbox and aero. So there is a big speed difference between the slowest and fastest. The fastest class is the least we'll supported because of cost most likely, but it is the stepping stone or progression through the championship that we hope drivers will move through. There are some very fast cars and drivers in my class and I'm really hoping they push hard to get in the scrap. A few cars are still in build so hopefully as the season progresses more will turn up and the front cars will have more of a battle.

I have had an offer to step up to a national series, but the only issue is budget. I only got 20% of the required funds sorted before the season started, it's really tough.
