You guys ran good. Maurits you are getting better each time and Richard did not bad for his first time on track. Cam you must have done this few times before because you kicked a lot of ass.
It was fun watching you guys.

"you just need to drive a well setup DSM. In all fairness, a well setup DSM probably drives like a stock E30, ha ha."

For a better idea of how you did...
http://www.victoriamotorsports.ca/Content/2009Results/winterseries3_8mar09_fin.htm

When you can lay down times as consistenly as Hamish does, you know you're getting alot better.

Goran, I did a full season last season, and a couple events the one before.

Richard: For next time...
Be smooooth. Squeeze the brakes, don't smash them. Throttle's a bit of a moot point as we're all waiting to spool. Dial in the steering input a little slower next time - You seemed to be putting in too much input & plowing through a couple corners. Smooth out the lines through the corners as best you can.
The slower (smoother) you can move inside the cockpit, the faster you'll go.


Edit - Wee! 6th by PAX!

Mm... lots.

Some sort of hybrid turbo, it's a small one. Big 28, I think.
2.5" custom turbo-back
15/16" rear sway bar
GC coilovers & camber/caster plates
16*7 or 16*8 shod in BFG G-force KDW's in winter
16*8 shod in R-comps in summer.
Shep trans (Stage 2, possibly 3)
DSMLink
Wideband
550's, possibly bigger now.
Water to air IC
Big brakes, 12" or possibly bigger.

I'm not sure how accurate that list is, it's possibly up to a couple years old.

It's a very robust car - I've never seen it break. It's great to drive (I did part of an event in it) - Very fast and responsive spool, extremely predictable high-g handling. He's had it for several years and it's very well sorted.

Hmm..that looks tempting to do considering its a Western Speedway, Too bad my car is not moving otherwise I would like to try that shit out. I know I would suck considering mine is FWD. lol ;D
