hey guys,

well dyno results from yesterday were good 794ps at 4 wheels!! shows you how happy some dyno's are over here!

had practice today, we had lots of car handling issues , not entirely sure why? we could not get on

the power until the car was completely straight or it would just shoot off the road, just an utter pig to drive. checked the wheel alignment this afternoon when time permitted and we had twelve mm toe out in the front!! we think it may have happened from the way it was tied down in the container for freight, not exactly sure if 4wd is working correctly either and dont have gauges etc here to check that. Mark only managed 1.00.01 sec today but if we get the handling woes sorted out should be another two seconds we think. we would be really great!!

some absolutely awsome cars here my favorite is the m speed gtr, just beautiful, they broke the hollinger today but i think they ran a 54!! the UK guys are here running in our group , not sure how there doing yet, dont think they have cracked the minute mark yet and the blue rex failed the engine today.

just loving it here, fantastic , just really wish the car was performing! hopefully we sorted it out this afternoon as we did alot of work on it to try and fix it but no chance for a test & event starts at 6.00 am.

keep ya's posted

cheers russ

good luck with getting things sorted! wish all the best for you guys over there!

That M Speed GTR is aiming to crack into the 53's, just read the article in HPI.

Hope you sort the issues out guys, best of luck.

i see the Mspeed boys have gone back to their old style front bar (flat undertray with cannards mounted on bar)

[fatz]

[Gts-t]

How low is the drivers seat!! i know it would most likely be lowered, but the driver must be 4 foot nothing

good luck today guys !!!!
