Started the night with a squeal in the belt setup. Then a carb issue after race 1 which cleared itself by end of the night, now off for a cleanout anyway. But, the squeal lead to a likely faulty pump which then blew a seal out of the steering box in race 3. All minor stuff and hopefully can get it reliable next week.

Wasn't sure I'd be ready for opening night... Apart from any gremlins should get there.

Fair bit more needed than the usual offseason clean and paint this time ๐Ÿ˜….

A lot of effort but not a lot of luck over the weekend for the Manawatu Steelers. Results obviously didn't go our way but that's teams racing.

But I definitely need to throw a post up for a bit of appreciation to all the crew tied up with the Steelers, you all know who you are.

After only just crawling over the finish line in the first race we copped a fair amount of damage. In the pits there was no hesitation with people just getting stuck in and fixing everything they could as is usually the case come teams weekends.
Front beam, steering arm, trailing arm was the obvious, then found the power steering pump had completely snapped its bracket to the motor. Still, got it welded, front thrown together with maybe a bit much toe in haha... and out there for the next race.

Drivers always know how much our crew and sponsors mean to us, but it can't hurt for an extra thankyou from time to time. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

Had a reasonable weekend staying out of trouble through qualifying for the King of the Arena. Unfortunately, had to DNF heat 3 of finals with an outside front puncture from turning an out of towner around...
Time for a week or two break before getting it ready for next season.

Weekend just gone we raced as part of the Manawatu Steelers Stockcar Team at the Palmy Teams Invasion.

First race we sat out and watched the team pick up the win vs Pumas 2.
Second race vs HB was to be my first teams race and full credit to the team for getting me in a position to make it my first win also.

With 2 wins Steelers had enough points to be in the final vs Pumas 1, unfortunately it wasn't to be with Pumas winning fairly comfortably and fully deserved.
Learned a lot and was definitely an awesome experience with a great bunch of drivers Tony, Rob, Graeme, Jamie, Quentin and Jaden.

Have to thank some people for their effort to get the car to be there, leading up to this meeting it had been a frustrating few weeks to say the least.

We had been having some distributor issues, so we had the motor out during the week to make sure it was solved. Big ups to CSL Race Engines for getting the work done on it and in such a quick turnaround. Wouldn't of been there otherwise.

Wayne at Beltdrive also, spent quite a few hours of his own time trying to help us get the issues sorted. You shouldn't be getting your belts anywhere else.

Last but not least Dave, Corye and the oldman Chris for help getting the car together over the last couple of weeks.
As well as everyone that were offering dizzy parts and advice prior, thankyou.
