SDMA Hillclimb 20th November 2011 - Last round for this year

[1JZ-Rolla]

All set. Dyno confirmed today that the Corolla is not running short of fuel on E85 at high revs, so its ready for a hard time, and probably a lot of wheelspin for extra fun

Yeah great shots mate, especially on such a dull day.

Turns out I left my camcorder mounted in the car when I dropped it back in storage today, so no in-car vids from me.

Fark you guys ran some impressive times out there in challenging conditions, well done! I only did a 51 in my two runs before pulling the pin when it started really pissing down.

Nice pics!

I was impressed at how well the micra went on a wet track, only the last run of the day felt very slippery. I think I need a wet day ALL DAY to have a shot at a class win lol

Eagerly awaiting Bob's pics from my last run, I saw him crouching down with his camera and thought I'd give him something interesting to photograph and pulled up the handbrake, unfortunately it let go a little quicker than it would on a dry surface haha

Going -- going ---- gone







LOOK AT THAT TYRE SECOND FROM THE BOTTOM ---- BET IT'S GOT MORE GRIP THAN THE ONE'S I HAVE ON NOW ??????

Stig say late and wide into corner = early fast exit !!!!!!!!!! BUT NOT ALWAYS

Great photos Bob! Looking forward to seeing more.

What a miserable day weather wise - but that 2nd run when it was temporarily dry was ken awesome. A new PB of 49.58 - and it was just a great feeling run (except for the mild understeer through the hairpin). Still not enough to beat Joe's 49.32 - well done mate, especially as I had a much drier track than you.

You know you're driving slowly when you have the time to wave to Bob at flag point 2 instead of wrestling the car around the hairpin... But even racing (ok, more like a parade lap) in the pouring rain I never get sick of the crackle and pop on the overrun of the BP rotary. I'm a simple man...

[Toddski]

Bob - please clear your PMs - trying to send you one about the photos!

[JustenGT8]

I was really surprised the at the pace during that very brief 'dry' window...totally stoked to get back into the 48's and with two fluffed corners i'm keen to string a clean lap together next year and see what time that results in

The track looks so differant from up on your perch there Bob.....
