Wez Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 On the way home I did some motorway pulls and at first glance my EGT look approx 50-100deg C lower at top end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickTT Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 I'm coming to watch if the weather is ok, but if my helmet happens to fall into the back of my car, perhaps someone would be kind enough to let me be a passenger for a lap or 10;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wez Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 These figures are from the peak hold on my EGT, I need to do some more testing but the weather is crap and dont really want to be doing 4th and 5th gear pulls in the rain. I need to hook the laptop up to check inlet temps as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Just seen this on a rover forum I frequently go on.I think they are tomcat cup cars. Anyway you get a good look at the track on the video, might be handy for those going. http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=8892904298855481236&hl=en-GB Good to see the track, Dare I say there are a few egos driving around that track though. Don't fancy putting my nose into people's blind spots to try and squeeze past. I think the TVR guy had the right idea, have your fun in the wide open spaces... it's not as if you are late for a job!

Wez Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 From memory Bookatrack are pretty strict on stuff like that, anyone seen to be pestering other drivers will be warned and if they continue they get removed from the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Overtaking STRICTLY by consent and positive action ONLY. They are ultra strict, anyone who flounts this gets sent home. It may sound sad, but it makes for a much safer environment, with cars of vastly different performance, weight and driver experience all out together. When you are in a carbon eggshell a ton and half of Supra is very intimidating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 Chris the brakes feel so much better, thanks. Not a problem, just remember these are FAST ROAD pads, not a race pad, and Donington is hard on brakes, but thankfully for you it's not on the International circuit, which is probably the UK's most severe test of circuit car brakes.

Wez Posted February 25, 2007 Share Posted February 25, 2007 Its ok as I am driving, I doubt the brakes will get that much of a beating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
