I withdrew from this event after 2 test's due to a bit of rubber flying off my car, it turned out to be a piece of a donut.

The good news....my donut's are fine, nothing wrong with them at all!

The bad news....1. I didnt need to finish my day early & 2. someone else's donut is not as healthy.

Just a word of warning to whoever else was there on the day, you might want to have a look under your car over the weekend (especially if you will be running at Sandown!!)

That's circumstantial evidence for you!  We all saw that chunk of rubber coming out of Phil's car during one of the tests....we just naturally assumed it was from Phil's car!

Whomever it was, they would have surely heard a "bang" and a some sort of vibration afterwrads???  So, who is it??

Victor after Mallala I think you're quite familiar with that bang and some sort of vibration...  I saw your donut (pieces thereof) flying across the back straight.

I found a donut chunk sitting on the transaxle crossmember when it was out.  I think I'll check mine tomorrow just in case.
