Andrew Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 A few more words from me.. My day started at 5am, away about 5-30 and was one of the first there at about 8-30. Car sticker and wrist bands were dished out at the gate on entry, so it was just a case of unloading and hit the track at 10am. No noise testing or sighting laps at KH. I actually waited for Chris and Mike to arrive before unloading so we could find a space to park up together. It worked out well, as when Neil showed up there was a convenient space right next to us. Perfect. Weather at this point chilly but dry. First session on track confirmed my fettling with the gear extension after Oulton had in fact made it worse! 😞 A few missed shifts, and it was a case of getting the hang of it more than anything. I thought about taking it to bits again over lunch but decided to just make do.. it worked, sort of.. Had some good sessions with @Michael Whitworth on track, so will get at least one vid up at some point. I had a couple of busy sessions, but most were fairly clear, with cars moving over nicely. There was a nice bunch of fast Caterhams that I couldn't quite keep up with, but it's fun trying! Weather in the afternoon was bright and warm.. yes really! Warm! 😎 I don't think any of our team suffered any major issues.. it was a bl**** good day! I love Knockhill. Anyone who hasn't tried a day there, really should. It's six hours journey time for me, but worth every minute. 👍 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingster Posted September 15, 2020 Author Share Posted September 15, 2020 Here's one of my sessions - not long until @Andrew and @Michael Whitworth show me how it's done 😁 (Edit anyone else get the loud crackling noises on the video when using an iPhone?) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting into the 59secs is good going for a first visit I reckon.. I don't think I did on my first. 😚 My PB is in the 57s, but I didn't get out of the 58s yesterday.. will think of a few excuses soon. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did a good few 1’02”s so I’d say that was probably my genuine best. I’m perfectly happy with that for a first timer though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
