What was your time Alexxx? How many cars were there?
iPhone weather says it should be okay, so fingers crossed.I have a plan B incase of a wet track not real keen to use them but.
Will see everyone tomorrow

fair few cars there, only got a few without traffic around the 1.13-1.14 mark.
not bad for KU-31's, next time i'll need some sticky rubber, although four wheel powerslides do make it fun. freakin cold down there though, my first session i was hitting boost cut on the straights haha!

Farken massive day! im farked, was fairly busy, A,B,C and D sessions aswell as a radical session and open wheelers did one or two sessions.
Weather was pretty **** on the drive up, i decided to play it safe and run some street tyres on WRX 16s, that was fun, NOT! tyre pressure's were at 35psi and it felt like i was driving around on ballons, i was getting tyre squeal under braking! managed a 1.25 somthing.
The track seemed dry so i went onto the full slicks, which i got to run all day. After a 'little spin out' into the gravel i managed to crack a 1.19.9 with an optimal lap of 1.19.2 (optimal lap is the best sectors from all laps combined) Grant (KNG02L) managed a 1.23.5.
By the end of the day was doing low 1.20s consistantly and my optimal track time was down to 1.18.6, and i still wasn't happy with the tyres.
We both used my car, so my car was doing double stints, although we both sat out a couple of sessions and made a trip back to town for fuel. I'm really happy with the way the car handled. My brakes don't feel as solid as they did this morning, Might be up for new rotors and pads, and probably fluid again, but my pads had already done a track day and i'd be surprised if my rotors weren't still original.
We were on route to WSID to spectate when it got cancelled due to ran, needless to say it was another massive trip for us newy people, And i was lucky to have Grant to drive some of the way.
I'm saving a video now which i'll upload later on, stay tuned for the picture dump
