Lots of nice cars going ever faster, raising the bar. Mclaren at 2:24 etc. Lots of the usual cars you see at the track too, but all going considerably faster. Close to my heart obviously is the S2000 class. All sorts of new records for the class happening now which is great.
Guy, it was good to see your name floating around top 5 or so in the GT class all afternoon.
It was a good Sunday for Ascendant Motorsport and ST Power / ST Wangan, with Arthur's (nick: Elite) heavy, road registered, daily driven, never trailered to track GTR winning the event with the GTR all time record (in line with WTAC rules) at 2:21.9, setting overall fastest time of the whole event, beating all the dedicated trackcars while at it, and winning the GTR class. This was done in the first lap the car ran the day of the competition and stood till the end. Officially, it is the second fastest laptime in the history of the event including all dedicated trackcars. The fastest WTAC-aligned racecar laptime in the 4 year history of the event is just 0.1 sec away at 2:21.8, by our friend Desmond Soh.
Data shows 2:20.7 waiting to be picked up, but conditions need to line up. Why sit still on the hardware and development though... best to keep moving and the aim is to get to low 2:19 on semis by December which will beat even the old slick record set before things were lined up with WTAC.
