And next is the Gerry Marshall Touring Cars
Well what can you say really.......umm!
Le Manx Jaguar romped through the heats.
Batmanx Camaro Z28 just loved the track and rarely come off.
Brumos Camaro which should have been at home on this track, was just difficult to keep on again.
Then we had two car failures
ALS - The Camaro lost any movement during the start of one of the heats and after checking was found to have lost a motor mount screw, the other side had also come loose. The screw was replaced for the next heat and everything was tightened up again. So should be OK now.
Bangers Racing Rover SD1 chassis became detached from the body at the front. On checking the3d body mount support had sheared off. As this occurred just before our lunch break I was able to superglue it back and let it set before running the last 2 heats. I don't think this will be the end of this problem, so this week I will try to reinforce the body mount support with some epoxy resin around it. Basically the car is too heavy at the front and it has stressed the body support beyond its capability, probably due to earlier encounters with other cars or barriers etc.
