Another Wreck, another Race Car.....

[Peter Jones]

Thanks Jarred, Yes it was an enormously successful day, there's lots of very complex systems involved and a lot of it can only be properly tested on the track.

The car was competitive from the second run and even with me taking it very easy I was 2 seconds faster per lap than the white car.

There was nothing fundamentally wrong, which was a relief.

It will take me a while to learn how to drive it. I'm not used to the feel of the car and it will take a while to explore the limits of the car and driver.

Nice Peter i guessed you were doing more with the front aero.

Uwe at Kamei emailed me yesterday and will be chatting on the phone this week so I will mention the good news.

When is your 1st race if he asks mate.

That sort of was the first race

I was hoping to get the car ready and test run before the season started but I had to use the first event for the shake down.

This is the series I'm running in Victorian SuperSprint Championship but I'll pick up a few club level sprints throughout the year too.

Here's a few more pics.

great shots pete!
did you pass the escort, or he pass you??

[Peter Jones]

He wasn't going that fast, I think I passed him a few times during the day.

It looked like a fresh build, he was probably working things out just like me.

I always admire your humility. Amazing car and effort all round.
