Nice footage, looks like a tidy and smooth run up the hill :-)

... tidy and smooth - maybe - but not that fast in absolute terms. And and Mark were +10mph under the bridge which shows how much more of a kick they got off the line with slicks and about 150kg less I guess.

Reckon a cheeky ATB in the Spider box would improve things and reckon me there's one lurking with my name on it somewhere soon!

How was Crystal Palace?

So far this year, I have been out once :(
Even the famous Si21 car has been out 3 times more than me :roll:
In 2010, I was running sticky tyres (R888s), but not slicks.
And only a simple gearbox, geared for 150+, nothing trick or as quick as a sequential box though. I think I only just touch 3rd at Prescott.
but the experience is so sweet :D :D :D

Cedric, Fantastic to hear that you enjoyed yourself and had a good time. The fact that you went a little faster on every run is a very good sign too that you are keeping the car under your control, rather than having big learning experiences.
Tres Bien.
