Some pics from my first lapping day.

Got to take the car out to the local track yesterday.What a blast till about eight laps in every time the clutch would start slipping from getting to hot and my power steering resivoir puking all over the place.It sucks because the clutch is only about four months old.The Road Magnets with AGX's did very well also.Now I just need to upgrade the rear sway and find a better clutch set up.Well on to the pics...

That's super cheap. Great way to rack up experience!

Hallett wheeeee!

A lapday will expose all the car's shortcomings, especially one at Hallett. You didn't mention running out of brakes, which is good.

A B14 PS reservoir will solve the B13 puking cap. I also saw an episode of MacGyver where he used a piece of plastic banner as a gasket for a leaky brake fluid reservoir cap.

Sucks about the clutch. The cable is adjusted correctly?

I'm going to have to get back to the track sometime.

The brakes were great no problems there is still a ton of pad left on them to.First session out I was in the 1:55's by the last session I had a best of 1:42 with four consecutive 1:43's if the clutch wouldn't have screwed up I think I could have gotten a 1:40 lap time.I screwed with adjustments all day on it and messed with it some today but it's kind of hard to recreate the same conditions as out there.
