Can't let the Evo's get too slated for putting on a frankly mild performance!

I heard various suggestions from people, but what I have gathered so far:

Motec ECU, 2 litre still, GT35 type turbo (not fully a GT35, possibly smaller) and between 550 -570 bhp.

What helped immensely was his lines around Quarry. He was considerably quicker out of Quarry than any other car bar Gary Prebble in his Evo.

He takes the "correct" line, as in the ideal racing line. Very hard to get on to it in a faster car, as coming over rise the car is unwaited, unbalanced and you're trying to brake from 150/160 mph into a right hander straight after a left. Many cars swap ends at this corner as it's so awkard.

Nick took the perfect line and had huge runs on Prebble, ND Evo and AJEC Evo down to The Esses. Only problem he had is less power than all the above- ND Evo runs up to 950 bhp, Prebble and AJEC cars were both c.650 bhp. Hence he always gained on them out of Quarry, but not enough to squeeze by before the Esses.

Had it been a track day, or had they been Blue flagging cars other than the back markers, Nick would have won race one from one of the first couple of laps As it was, no one let him through (it's a race after all) and he was held up for most of the 1st race by slower cars.

Top chappy, very friendly man too
