Alan - Its a CAMS approved tarmac hillclimb being run by CMI Car Club. Its sorta like a targa stage, but only with no navigator and you get to repete the course 7/8 times and the quickest time of the day from you runs is the one that counts. Everything from old Mini's and Alfa's thru to GT-R's, Evo's will compete. Total field would be approx 40/45.

sav man - Basic club day stuff - battery sticker, 1kg fire extinguisher, secondary bonnet catch (leather belt would do), minimum CAMS L2S licence. All easy stuff.

congrats on the win t01-100. pity the about the weather though.

I watched most of the morning session but left after lunch. I heard from andrew (aqua/green GTI Golf) that you came first with a much quicker time than the rest of the field so well done.

Thank JaFF

The course was very slippery in places and extremely greasy. When I arrived at lunch time I herd that a 55.x was the quickest. In my first run I was all over the show only managing a 56.x. I worked out how the windscreen wipers worked and dropped the tyre pressures for the second run. Seemed to work OK with a 51.x second pass, but suffered wheel spin of the start and overshot the bottom hairprin. I tidied up the start and took a better line at the bottom hairpin for the final run of 50.3. That black Evo Lancer was the next quickest with a 53.x

Road re-open time came before I could another go so couldn't crack a 49, although I believe it would have been very achievable simply going into the top hairpin a little deeper.

Great event and well run. Can’t wait to do Rally Tas in the car.

    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it. 
    • It always seems the uglier an animal is the more is costs
    • It's all about the socialisation of the dogs. In that first 8 to 16 weeks of age they need to be taught to be nice and friendly with everything. That way they generalise it to everything. That said, some days you'll just never beat genetics, but 99% of the time dogs chasing cats is purely lack of socialisation, and then the chasing part can turn into prey drive.
    • I bench bled my HFM BM57 before installing, it leaked badly. Threw it in the bin, because I installed it 2 years after purchase.
    • That is horrid. Reminds me of the time that R32 send the clutch through the bonnet, then the guy tried to sell his car using those pictures.
