Well as some of you may know Jesse girl, Kevs other half won a hot lap at Winton with Jason Bright from Britek motor sport .but with a bit of bad luck on her part and Kevs they couldn"t make it : how ever I could : .. so as I had a trip to Brissy on monday anyway I decided to make a small detour to Winton raceway .My taxi was a new 10tonne prime mover so it made for quite a entrance as it turns out they are sponserd by the owner of the truck anyway and just wanted to keep it for there own.. will post up some pickys when I get home .. as for the day its self what a blast they had both cars out and running full noise .no holding back with the rev limiter popping on more than one occasion I ended up with Marcos marshall in the Irwin tools car .. got to have a good yack to Brighty and co. too what a cool bunch of blokes and gals .. having been around a few quwick cars in my day the speed and noise wasn"t a issue the harder the better : what was a surprise is the heat in side these things all wrapped in my flame proof suit and gear you nearly melt . the harshness of the gear box was also a surprise you litterally have to punch it into every gear. lifting it over the ripple strip in turn 3 was fun as was the sheer force these things can stop from 200+ks, the precision these guys aim there car lap after lap is amazing watching there footwork and gear shifting is mind blowing all in all what a awesome experiance Thanks heaps Jese girl and Britek motorsport, and forty2 the promotor of the competion (will get the pickys up soon as I get out of this stupid Brissy airport) The down side 1 out lap and 1 hot lap aint nearly enough
