Looked like a quick track, some great looking times in there.

it was pretty quick - obviously none of us could keep up with Andy :-(

It was a Bob designed track. It was good to have a flowing track.

Roll on next week,

I'm told I have some set up tips on the way, this could mean that Thomas will soon be giving the A Class boys something to think about...

Under steer last time out was a killer - even Bob beat me! Obviously he felt guilty so he did suggest I put a bit of toe out (should have known but memory just let me down) - far better turn in on the polished floor, even kept up with Andy (only down the straight though..... but its a start!)

Need to think what I would like to work on now...... probably not crashing I guess!

Maybe we all ought to all upload set ups so we can all look and compare?

Yes, we mentioned that Thomas had way too much camber on the rear wheels.
Start by adjusting the ride height so that the driveshafts are level (this should be about right) and then you need to make sure the top of the wheels are leaning in by about 1.5 degrees - he's currently got about 5 degrees.

If you don't have a camber gauge, use something with a good 90deg square corner (a piece of paper works well!) and you want to adjust/lenghten the top turnbuckle until you've about a 3mm gap between the paper and top of the tyre - i hope this makes sense!

I'd do the front exactly the same if i were you.
