I am beat. What a long weekend and a long drive.
Thunderhill is a great track, lots of elevation changes, and really tuff off camber turns. The track was a little slow for our car, for most of the turns we were pulling out in 3rd gear just out of the power band, and shifting to fourth on the fastest straits resulted in almost no acceleration because they were uphill runs. Watching a Fiat X19 pull away from you uphill sucks. But the good part was hearing a Honda guy complain about getting beat by a Yaris. ![]() Two more podium finishes, 3rd both days, out of six cars - and lucky to finish at all on Sunday, as the dreaded misfire came back. We believe the car is experiencing fuel starvation, we are generating enough grip and body roll with the slicks that at even 1/2 tank the car will cut under certain conditions. This happened three times during the weekend, and in all the cases the mis went away and car was good after about half a lap. Time to look at getting a fuel cell.
