The Racetractor. The End.

[Ruan]

I've said it before in here, the effort that goes into this car is unreal, there's not many people who go to the same level of detail in so many areas!!

Had a great (even if I could do with a new spine and some new ear drums...) drive down yesterday, James gave it some abuse on track, it highlighted a few problems that needed to be sorted, but the chassis and engine were performing brilliantly - just need to work on the cooling system, with the grill removed, things improved, which is a good sign, we're not limited by how much heat can be moved in the system, rather removing it once it's in the system! I think some shrouds to help force the air through the radiator would help, naturally having a knob off intercooler in the way doesn't help matters! Also an oil cooler going back on will help hugely to reduce the load on the cooling system.

Turbo control working great, few tweaks needed here and there, but working as intended and holding good exhaust and inlet pressure - response is pretty unreal, turbo is ready to go again after every gearchange, no hanging about!

Glad all the effort has paid off - it's definitely getting there!
