Snetterton's final double header.

Only got quali and race 1 as I didn't set the camera properly for race 2.

Got pole in quali, crashed out of race 1 from the lead and got 2nd with a damaged car in race 2.

Those of you who love metros really need to get involved and join up!

nice driving and steering wheel action in that qualifying session, it seems to me that your car has some traction less in the rear than the white with the yellow and red stripe that you drive behind a long time which looks a bit like tom sandersons old one which has a build thread on here, does he have two?

Looks like great fun.

What damage did you do when you tagged the barrier?

Thanks guys.

That is indeed Tom Sanderson in front, for only the second time this season I nabbed pole and Tom was second. Which is nice as he's usually a minimum of a second ahead.

I don't understand if you're saying I have more or less grip in the rear? I thought I had less oversteer mid corner and I've been working on reducing oversteer over the last few races.

I tagged the barrier pretty hard and I need a whole new front end. I managed to get out for the second race and finish second, but the front offside chassis rail has moved back about 4-6 inches. So basically I have to cut off the front foot of the car and weld back on a donor section.

its nice to have someone to have good battles with

wau that was way more dammage than it looks in the video. sorry to hear that.

when I look at the video it looks like you have more oversteer than tom sanderson (so less rear end grip), but perhaps the video is misleading, probably a lot easier to tell when your driving
