From memory of last year the west bridgford grass is super grippy, looks like it from some of your first laps. Super nice ‘take advantage of others mistakes’ on the last lap for you 😅

Yeah I went up 1 front spring rate and was running a 1.9 front roll bar to make it safe in the high speed corners. I’d only removed 2 outer rows and 1 inner row off my mezzos (front) too.
@chowettgoes8 күн бұрын
@@GarethJaineRCRacing For sure the extra rows on those mezzo’s would make it grab, been getting used to that on my 4WD all season (much slower than you). What do you expect to happen with thinner/thicker roll bar?
@GarethJaineRCRacing8 күн бұрын
Thicker roll bar keeps the car flatter into corners where the suspension is loaded up. Essentially the thicker the bar the less grip is generated on that end of the car. So a thicker rear would give you more steering out of corners keeping the rear flatter and preventing load transfer

Certainly looked slippy. Was it rain before the final rather than before and during?

It chucked it down after heat 2 round 4. Once it stopped it didn’t rain again

Well you had Richard in your sights all race and he just sneaked through for that extra victory lap. Interesting to watch a full race at my home track with you (a better driver than me) your lines and real good and consistent. Also good to see your ‘only human’ small errors over the double occasionally and just one ‘on its lid’ moment. Thanks for sharing and of course your remix on the graphic 😉 see you at the weekend regional

Yeah I think I’d made setup changes in the right direction come the final. Certainly closed the gap up! Back again next weekend

Looked like a 50/50 mix of track unpredictability and driver. Certainly I found that way back in the D final, what’s your thoughts?

It didn't help that I had to stand the opposite end of the rostrum to where I stood in qualifying. I was looking across the double before and in the final down onto the top of it. Silly mistakes on my part defo! onto BMR!
