Saw you on the day, nice clean laps!

I was spectating the guy in the red Fiat Coupe
small world huh ???

I remember the coupe, nice cars, didn't see him out much in the afternoon ?

Don't suppose you have any pics ? loads of people seemed to be taking pics but never seem to find them on the net sadly, the ones you buy at the track are "ok" but seriously lack variety, 5 shots at about 5 different boring ( IMHO ) locations, they seriously lack any know how on where to take the best shots at Cadwell IMHO.

If you happen to go again when im going your welcome, along with anyone else to take passenger laps if you fancy it, the door is always open so to speak

No vid on the day despite the fact I arrived at track with all the equipment, they have changed to rules meaning any cameras have to bolted or welded to the car directly, meaning my tempory and usually ok setup was not useable that day, you can see the mounts in place in the centre rear seat if you look closely in some of the shots , gutted as this car would have given some really nice vid that day

Seems my fuel pressure problems are directly related to this tuning box, basicaly the car was stomping up to 110mph then stuttering and stopped pulling properly ( shame as I could and should have made 120/125mph in those bits ), removed the box yesterday and tonight pulled cleanly up to 130mph no problem at all, feels like there is not enough pressure going to the rails ( or too much and safety cut off kicking in ) when you reach 4000rpm or so and 110mph in 5th.

Track days look so fun. We JUST got a sweet track here in CO, called High Plains Raceway. It's set to open at the end of the month. Maybe I'll get some sack and try someday.
