Well I didn’t quite nail my class today - did a PB with a mid 58, was 0.06s ahead of David Dyson’s GT4RS after his adjustment (a 2% penalty for PDK) in the first timed run. We both improved in the last run of the day and he popped my by 0.3s. Had some minor mechanicals (exhaust silencer failed when loading so pick one up on the way and fitted last night) and residual AOS issues today which I think I have now sorted.

Good close competition though between two vastly different cars! See you tomorrow
