Man, what a race.
Sorry to whoever I hit when I was splashing around early on, think it was H@L
I dont think it was me, maybe Ted. With the weight of the Viper, it probably would have felt like I ran over a cat or something anyway
(PS dont run over cats).
Well done H@l for finishing in that Viper, that car must of been hard work in those conditions.
Mate, it was an absolute nightmare. Really hard work
My dry setup was never going to work. I halved the power in the diff, increased the pre-load from 2 to 3, put the wing on MAX, put the rev limit down to almost the MIN and still had immense difficulty getting the power down all through 1st, 2nd and 3rd gears.
I realise now that I should have done allot more wet testing as the tyre selection is hard to get rite. The car only felt good when the tyres were at exactly the correct temp. When they overheated I could not stop, and when they went cold I could not get the power down. I started on soft wets but, it should have been soft wet front and hard wet rear. In the pits I put hard wets on and it should have been soft wet fronts and hard wet rears again (I think). Similar difficulties for Ted in the other Viper as well I think. Well done Ted for gettin that thing home.
Still had some great battles and I am really glad to have gotten to the end in 8th
Well done podiums, especially Gazza who gets his first Championship race win.
And well done all finishers.
