Aiya! Modbox Winton 5.5

A slightly more expensive Winton event hosted by Modbox but because the original organiser couldn't run it, EXE-Jally steps in and takes over like a boss! And it was slightly more expensive because of the lower car limit (50?) and promise of more track time. Works in theory but we had some mechanical failures and a car fire which slowed things up.


PB! Found another 0.3 seconds bringing to 1:43.372 (from 1:43.677)

Random clips of things-other-than-PBs happening on track.

Lots of happy laps, but probably no more than a trouble-free EXE day.

Higher vmaxs in all sectors except the final one compared to last time. The 42's are in sight.... 

Overall smoother and quicker transition from braking to throttle

Another 4:30AM departure for a 8:00AM arrival

I wonder if car detailing enthusiasts wash behind their number plates?

Kam brought the S15 this time. Made for good PB battles with the BRZ.

Oil cooler AN fitting temps. The oil inside is ~90 C deg.

A tad warm. WTB brake cooling kit.


Dusty wheels from going on an off road adventure

Corgi Racing! ... Probably not the fastest racing team around 😹

Does anyone know how to un-collapse the jerry cans when they suck themselves in?...

Gogogo!

WTB Porsche!

Mother nature was kind to us again! Thanks m'aam!

Chasing them Porsches

It was a bit HK-nats. Unfortunately the culture of rudeness came with it. e.g. leaning on & leaving rubbish on other people's cars 😡

Mostly stock and does 1:38's 🙌

Having big front brakes help...
 
...and matching rears

Child seat fits in the back! No cage for me then.

Tofu car! 

Mates!

Just a few Hondas

New Type R fresh off the showroom floor

.... x2 !

These things look so beasty!

... and a few more Hondas

Is someone having a BBQ? ... Nope, someone having an engine fire 

Random engine bay shot

Mmmm CF wing 

That intake..!

Balling in the Merc.

Pre-grid

Full tank from Wallan BP on the way up + 2 collapsed jerry cans and get back with fuel light
