Now, this wasnt my quickest run but deffinatly one of my more exciting entrys (aside from the fueling of the track on the second run).
We started out the weekend having to beat a 1:07.75 set by last years PB (personal best)
Friday although the weather seemed against us and grip was limited we managed to get a 1:06 which sent us to bed happy friday night.
Saturday came around and wirh slightly better conditions i managed to push the car into the 1:05.44 bracket which was another achivement for me.
Sunday after afew tyre pressure adjustments and some "eitherway its going home on a trailer any way" type attitude. I set out for a 1:04. I didnt quite get there but after some dicey back end work through some corners i managed to pull off a 1:05.14 (2.5 seconds better than last years best) which is still another PB and after running 3x1:05s throught the day it lets me know the car is confortable running consistant 1:05s.
I finnished under 1 second off a third place trophy so after some modifications and adjustments im aming for 2 seconds improvement for next years climb.
Overall the car handled really well and performed without fault the mechanic not so much. (appologies to the marshals, i will be double checking my fuel cap from here on out)
Id like to thank Kev and the crew who worked tirelessly to put on this incredible event Trident Tyre Centre Legend Of The Lakes Hillclimb you guys truely out do yourself year after year. I love that i am able to take place in such a well run event. Although this is only my second time competing, coming down each year feels like a family reunion. Thank you guys.
Id also like to thank all the guys who got me here, wether it be helping with entry, loaning of car trailer, last minute parts or some discounts on bits. I appreciate you all and you guys make it just that bit easier to enter these events and push this little Pulsar.
