A few small mods before next race involved a higher pressure radiator cap and larger expansion tank. To try to stop it spitting out coolant after a hard run.
Next event involved a trip further north to golspie in the highlands
Always a great track which involved 2 different track layouts changing from Saturday to Sunday's race.
Usual class entry mostly clios but a few others inc a well specced Honda ep3 on itb
Good entry in class of 10 again so plenty to battle with. Usually I would be battling my Auldman in his clio too , however he had gearbox issues. Leaving me to offer him a double drive in my car 😁
So the starlet would be getting twice the abuse over the weekend.
Saturday was dry thankfully and car seemed pretty planted but a bit understeery. Throughout the day we played with damper settings and tyre pressures and dialled out a lot of understeer . Resulting in the Auldman pipping me to 2nd leaving me in 3rd but hey I'll take that. Sunday was a different story soaking wet leaving interesting conditions. After our first runs we pushed more with our second runs , me possibly too much resulting with a trip into the grass and tyres leaving my braking slightly too late but no damage apart from a timing strut.
Ending the day trying to rebuild my confidence ending up 4th missing 3rd place by 9 hundredths of a second. But on a plus note the Auldman took the starlets first win by almost half a second
So ending the weekend with a 1st 2nd and 3rd trophy
It did show up that rear arb required before next race which is the end of June
