Default My Racing season finished with a bang today!

Well the season is now finished and what a race to finish with!! Started well and was running 2nd dropped to 3rd then got back to 2nd then back to 3rd all the time setting new pb times, took nearly 2 seconds out now at 1.35.099 then got rammed by a caterham, spun round got going then pushed and caught p3 again but had done my tyres in catching him, eventually settled for a fantastic 4th, huge thanks to all that have helped me this year the car has been awesome, special thanks to Stu at msd, Matt at matt lewis motorsport, Martin at reyland motors, Jon Forster at Riverside automotive Andy at NBDS LTD
Oh and I forgot to mention todays results give me 2nd place in class B in the Championship..GET IN THERE!!!

I thought you were still running a standard diff or box or the like and I expecting something along those lines to have gone bang. Congrats on the results though!
