Looks like it was a good day, lots of laps and some pretty fast times on Natsoft.

Well Brad , what you feared came to pass . Its time for your sibling to get his own car . The rules of borrowing is not to beat the owner . Just point zero eight of one second - that hurts . JJ .

Brad first they beat you by a little bit then it becomes sport to beat you as much as possible. Victor has this problem with Mary and I have this problem with Susan. Nip it in the bud now dont let it get any worse. Cheers Ray

Hmmm... Brad being beaten by 0:00.08 must hurt!
But Raymond, 0:01.21 must definately hurt! Have u got that gender recognition device working yet? Mine doesn't work, so now I'm thinking about a weight sensor hooked up to the drivers seat that instructs the ECU to knock off 2000RPM! I'm telling u... these girls have a definite weight advantage!
Ok, Ok, Ok, to save u looking it up, Mary beat me at Phillip Island last December by 0:00.21.
Cheers
Victor

Next time on the short track, I'll be using octane boost and dropping the front sway bar in an attempt to wipe out the 80 thousandth of a second deficit... plus learn to drive. Get this the tip from my brother was to practice with computer games.

Maybe with no skin in the game Jeremy had the 'no fear' factor . I suggest you have the 'you bend it - you mend it chat' . Any way i always manage to beat my dad by a considerable margin but i never point it out as he is the team finaciaer and he is in his middle 70's so i should probably doing a lot better .

How great is it to read this thread, the real subject between the lines... one heck of a fast sprint!!! (i'm chossing to ignore "No Fear" Musco for the time being).

the green machine of Mr Mussco was a truly great sight . He must have 8 lives left the way he pilots that sprint . The NATSOFT times are a good guide of a top day with perfect conditions . Apart from a few quickly recovered offs[ i contributed here ] the day ran faultlessly with the four run groups clocking up massive run totals . Am a little unsure of the standard under 2l class times . They seem espeacilly quick figures compared to how they looked in the flesh ? Would be good to get back to transponders even if a small charge applied ? This would reduce time irregularities that understandibly happen . Ed just come over in future , Brad is happy to loan his car out....

Just a quick note to let you know how much I enjoyed the my first sprint meet with the club. The assistance by club members was very much appreciated.
Hey Ray, that was great session! Lots of fun. If my wife looks as though she wants a run in the car, I'll think long and hard !

Justin,
I think a few of the cars don't really qualify as standard, based on how I read the 2006 rules. Jeff for instance (car 30) who was at his first sprint and may not even know the class structure, ( I know I struggled to find details when I started). His car is quite extensively modified just from a quick look, stripped out interior, non-standard exhaust, and what I think were R-spec tyres. One other of these cars also runs what I think are R-spec tyres, and another runs some pretty trick Michelin's that might even be considered R-spec but who knows. I don't know if it really matters, but it does make the system of having different classes a bit pointless.
As for Brad, well I think he should set up an arrive and drive service. His brother had the best service I have ever seen. Just wandered up to the dummy grid, and the car was ready and waiting. Bring it in at the end of the session and park it. No mess no bother!
Alan.
