UKAC Jim Clark Event - Silverstone 1967 - April 10

[Felix Simoes]

That was two epic races!!!  

Thanks guys for organising this

Mark, it was with me that you bumped on hangar straight. From my perspective I was driving straight and then I got bumped sideways. Looking at the replay I could see that I was going slightly to the left to take the line for the next corner and at the same time you were going slightly to the right. I had plenty of room to my right, it's a fact but you also had space to your left. It was a shame that happened but I don't think I was the only cause for the bump.

Great races! Thank you Ceolmor for this event.

Congratulations to all the participants, excellent races with very few contacts or mistakes. This is really good and difficult to see in other places.

I had bad qual. Race 1, I started well and managed to get the lead after a small mistake of FMG. Then I simply controlled the race, without having to push too much because the pilot behind me were in fight.
Race 2, difficult to vamp having to pass the whole group, but it went quite well. I was in the traffic for the "3rd place fight" between Jeffrey and Porco. A fourth place without praise, but dignified.

The pic of FMG in drifing in front of Jeffrey and Felix is epic. So '60s!

I tried a really high coast diff setting, but decided that was too wimpy so used 40%

I think I was running 5 for coast last night, I run fairly high pre-load though which makes the car less snappy.

You need to be very heavy on the heal and toe to prevent rear locking under braking, more then once I had to heal and toe into hanger despite not actually needing to change gear, but just to unlock the rear wheel/s.

An no problem at all Felix, I was making a joke out of how wide it is  besides you have more than helped me out with setup advice in the past 
It’s odd if it was you though, I was looking across at another car that was nose to nose with me but there was a big gap between us, then next moment I felt a side on clunk (wheel to wheel sound) that caused the off, so I presumed someone else had crept up on my stern 
No biggie anyway
