Four of us ran again last night, twice through on the four centre lanes, we ran obey the laws of physics rules, IE crash n Marshall yourself.
Although racing as such, we are really evaluating car performance before formalising some rules and specifications for next year.
The big factor is obviously rubber, a 911gt1/96 running with well oiled standard 30shore tyres was going very well, the softer 15 shore tyres offer great grip but when they let go,it's a car flip, no chance to catch it.
Last night's runners.
McLaren ,standard tyres well oiled,smooth and quiet, but nowhere near enough grip on the twiddly bits due to the very narrow rear tyres.
333 Ferrari on 15 shore, middle ground runner.
Porsche Gt1 on well oiled 30 shore, just had the legs on the 333.
Toyota GT one,15 shore glued tyres, quicker than all the above.
Toyota GT one, 15 shore glued tyres and 25k motor, quicker than the other Toyota.
Porsche 911gt2, 15 shore tyres of unspecified make, not quite as quick as the 333.
A couple of Mercedes ran, one well sorted, one trying different tyres.
One club member has a Revo Toyota GT one body, 3dp plastic chassis and slot it motor mont/ flat six RS motor as an experiment for running in the club open/unlimited GT class, that ran a couple of times to try it out, obviously fastest overall, but not as fast as I would have expected, only .2 seconds quicker than a metal chassied 25k motored Revo.
All very interesting and very enjoyable, next planned running the last Wednesday in May.
