Simon.Rogers1 Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Here is my 1st timed run. here Forgot to press the lanc lead for run 2 😔 The pressure was on listening to the comentary and watching for Adrian's time you see. It looks like I was a bit faster through the lower part of the hill and the Ess's Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSL Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Good video's fella's *thumbup* Rob, having watched video three I can now understand how the gear change cable broke Your not taking any chances with the gears not going in are you 😳 😬 Simon a slightly later turn in at bottom S may be advisable 😳 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon.Rogers1 Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 I had some difficulty stopping as you can see And the last time I drove in the dry there I missed the apex by miles. So I was rather determined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 Darren - thanks for the tip btw are you saying I should be a little more gentle 🤔 will try and work out what is going on with the videos... rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenEvans Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Shee-ite! What's Rob got there??? I've obviously lost touch with who's upgraded to what! Just a little less lift before Crossing lads and earlier throttle at the top S and the times would come down by another second or so Edited by - KenEvans on 7 Jul 2008 10:23:39 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenEvans Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I notice on Simon's video the commentator is talking about Rob "beating himself around the head which is a bit pointless because he's wearing a helmet" 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 once I get the video sorted that will become evident I hadn't realised that by having a video recorder you put up all your errors, mistakes, bad habits and foibles to the world! rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSL Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Just a tad Rob Cause with your new bell crank arrangement the gearbox shaft will probabaly just snap off the motor next time 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian Williams Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 My last run @ 31.54 is here. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=cPczy1yAvVo Still too much of a lift at Crossing despite being 79mph which is 4 mph up on my class 3 car (which was flat) on ACB's in 2006. The short shift into 5th after Crossing was also a mistake, it cost me 2 mph through the speed trap despite being quicker through Crossing compared to my first timed run. I was getting a little close to the limiter in 4th into bottom S but the rev drop into 5th took it too far away from the power band just when I got to the steepest part of the hill. Must remember to rev the nuts off it in future. 😬 Adrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
