Well, was good to meet everybody and put faces to a few names
I did indeed have a ball - the trip down was good, and the trip back was great (didn't really see any other traffic till I got close to Canberra
).
Winton was a very interesting track. Suited my car pretty well, although it took me a while to work out a few corners Thanks to Lurch for the tips beforehand, and for being silly enough to go for a few passenger laps. A bit of coaching really helps. especially when you have limited time to get used to the track - I reckon I could do another few track days there and still not have all the corners worked out. Was pretty happy with 1:52. My only regret for the weekend was that Mark got the jump on me at the start in the last supersprint, then I started getting lapped by quicker cars and couldn't catch the "B".
Just been looking at the results, one thing I noticed was that Jordan in the little 120Y was doing 2:00 flat - not bad for a first-timer on street tyres
I managed to get my datalogging working for the last two sessions, will have to have a look at it to see what I can work out. One thing that jumps out was that my top speed was only 133kph, over 30k less than Doug's top speed.
Just been showing the wife and kids a bit of the in-car footage. Don't know if I'll be allowed back out on the track again after they saw my attempt to demolish the flag point
Thanks again guys, especially Brad for organising the accomodation, and all of you who made the trip up even though you weren't competing
