Neo 08

[Bren]

For this event was unsure what car would be available to drive. Luckily enough my 808 arrived just after 9.00 on the friday morning so had a mad hour to make relevant adjustments & fit the radio gear.
For the three practice runs it perfomed well, The only problem was adjusting to this unique track on how to drive it, in which to be fast you had to drive slow which is hard.
Onto saturday & qualifying, the OS Speed ran for 12minutes 50 seconds which was great fuel economy so it was just down to hitiing the lines right. For me thats where the plan failed, silly mistakes cost me the magic 14 lapper each run although the pace was good for it.
For Sunday was out first thing, the track had been watered which killed the grip even with a clear run my time would be beaten as the track grip improved every heat.
My last round made some alteration my time improved, but the car was hard to drive.

For the finals on the monday qualified in the 1/8th's, a respectable position considering none of my qualifying runs had been mistake free & looking at the caliber of drivers behind me it had really not been to bad.
For the final my car felt real good but found my self in a very enjoyable battle with 5th through to 10th, this allowed the front 4 to get away. My race was clean wheel to wheel action for the whole 20 minutes, which was good fun & almost made up for not bumping up. I was pleased with my drive although its always nice to go up.
With neo over met up with alot of people over the weekend & had a very enjoyable time chatting with  friends from over sea's.
