Hello everyone
Welcome to the Perth
Motorplex for the
second round of the
2009/2010 ANDRA Pro
Series. We are all
sitting around
waiting to put the
engine together. It
is pretty hot here.
There is a
forecasted top of 37
degrees today. Our
first pass is at
7.00 and the second
at 9.30. We are all
ready for a great
days racing.
We did 3 testing
passes on Wednesday
which has given us a
good baseline for
qualifying today. It
took us two passes
to get a handle on
the race track. On
the third run we did
a 330ft shut-off
which had a 0.879
60FT and 2.26 330FT.
We estimate that to
be around a 4.7
second pass.
We will getting a
gasket call at
around 4.00pm and
will be warming the
car up at 6.00pm
ready for the first
round.
We will have
results, blogs,
pictures and video
coverage for both
days of racing so
make sure you check
back for more
updates.
Ben
