Pretty alright. 15th outright, 2nd fastest street registered (.04s behind Rick Vincent's modified Lotus), 2nd in Marque Sports to James Pearsons RX7 race car. Not bad I thought. Beat both Jeff Schmidt and Steve Woods by a couple of seconds which I was stoked with!

Nice job mate. In that pic looks like you were crossed up coming out of the carousel. Beating the Megane .......sweet sweet victory.

Thanks! Yeh, that layout (A4) you turn sharp left after where that photo is taken instead of right. Good fun!

Better get your entry in for next weekend... It's A4 layout also, it's a fun track!

ha ha. No motorsport is not so big in Fiji. Manage to read Adrian Newey's 'How to Build a car' over plenty of Fiji Bitters in a deck chair though.

Bummer... I actually ran there this Saturday with the MX5 club - they were doing the A6 layout which I was curious to try, and I knew a number of people running. Was pretty satisfying - I was fastest outright by a reasonable margin out of 35 entries including some relatively serious machinery, the car was working really well. I also believe I have lined up a deal on some cheap (relatively speaking of course) AO50s...
