well we done brands hatch end of last year 1st thought was what the hell have we done its terrible!!! all over the place pulling under breaking and very skittish??
after a few laps the crap was worn off the slicks and shitty discs all soon came to life and it was a bit of an animal to be honest.
The traction was superb, (maybe some harder springs on the coilovers and a brake bias to stop back end stepping out on hard braking) made for good fun.
it took abuse all day and didnt miss a beat!
untill the black flag! Chris said he noticed a puff of smoke, we went in and marshall in an M3 pulled up saying the smoke was a little to much and to have a rest and check over it.
We noticed a bit of a miss fire and the oil was very thin and smelling burnt.
We let it all settle topped up and went off out. Marshall said he would watch us and flag us if still bad.
I came in after 4-5 laps and he came over said that was fine a little on overun but nothing that would keep us off track
but with the missfire and oil as it was at 4pm we loaded up and the car went home.
compression test was done and it was well down (50-60psi) on number 1,
so its in to workshop to have a look.
Front end off
And ready to rip engine out.
