Now some of you may know that we went to the pod today with piston heads sunday service, didn't know what to expect but was looking forward to a good day, arrived about 1/2 9 and racing had already begun so signed on and had a go first run wasn't bad seeing as though i hadnt been for 18 months got a 11,59 at 128.45 mph with a 1.9 60 foot it was quite cold and the track seemed quite slippery as traction was an issue as the day proceeded. As some of you may have noticed i had done some aero mods this week and now i have had time to digest the day my terminal is up 2 and 1/2 MPH with no engine mods from 127.3 to 129.93 despite track preparation was at an all time low and they kept sprinkling some sort of yellow stuff down at the start line, there was more grip just after the burn out grid, i was about to stop doing any more runs when Matt let me know they had just glued and prepped the right hand lane for a 200 mph motorcycle so done one last run number 7 where i just managed to get a 129.93 (130 really) and 11.5353 and was able to stay in fourth gear at 8500 rpm i have just done some calculations and i am question my self about what ratio diff i have, i thought i had a 3.7 but when i put the bmw gear ratio calculator in i think i may have a 3.54 so off with the dif cover very soon
