We didn't even use all the downforce available to us to get more top speed. But I guess you had a more powerful car so you had a fast car on the straights anyway. ^^

Yes quick car but with turbo kicking in difficult in the wet :(
 
We chucked it all on to make sure the car was safe as possible in the wet. We then spent hours on gearing the car to gain some speed back by using maximum efficiency.

I couldn't get on the with the BMW at the start but I'm yours was great - would love to try the tune

Now the race is done I will upload it later tonight :D
 
Yeah I can see how the BMW with that huge turbo was hard in the rain. Our setup seemed really fast in the wet and that was one of our goals so I guess we managed that. Was a little sad we didn't get more 100% wet running because I was really gaining time on everyone when it got really wet. ^^

I noticed the SLS doing well in the wet, the audi killed it in the dry and inters but full wet and the car was struggling like no bodies business

The one time I got 100% wet for a longer while I gained about a minute per lap one your driver. That was fun, would have loved that to continue for a bit longer. ^^

I noticed your car required settling with throttle into every corner Matt - must been hard to learn to drive the ring like that

it was and it wasn't tbh, I always tend to ride the breaks and throttle anyway so it wasn't to hard to learn to do it for the ring.. the hard bit was learning to take the fast bumps in the car took me up until the night before the race to really understand how to do it

Well do it you did bud, I'm still in awe of your team's performance. Do tell Chorley and James that IMHO that was the best drive's I've seen from them by a long way

Other than that plux I would love to do some sprint on 3 laps with u as I heard some legends about you:)

Big shame though but hey we got to the end and lived up to our team name :D just have to come back next year stronger than ever and take the win ;)
 
I'll be asking Matt about the other weekend to WEC for that slot over the summer months once I'm done testing. So far 3 of 6 cars are within 0.2 of each other. Will be getting the others into that range before fine adjustments are made :)

"Summer (June, July and August) is the UK's warmest season, with long sunny days, occasional thunderstorms and, in some years, heatwaves."

Your free Mike! :D
