    Videos Racing 911S Historic Winton - Australia

    Hey guys,

    thought I would share the new videos that have just been uploaded.

    The weekend started with no practice for me on Friday after a late start.
    The upside was a massive effort from Spencer to finally get my LSD installed - ouch it was expensive - but bloody hell what a difference!

    3 laps into qualifying on Saturday morning, the electrical gremlin that plagued me at Phillip Island 2 weeks ago, returned and cut the electrics. 2 seconds off last years qualifying time, and I was 15th on the grid of 36. If had the same qual time as last year I was in 4th! DAMN IT!

    Sat race 1, worked my way up to 11th. Stayed 11th in Race 2, and finished 8th in race 3 on Sunday afternoon. Race 3 was cut short to 6 laps due to someone in the paddock having a heart attach. If those two laps were still there I reckon I would have finished higher still.

    Race 1

    Race 2

    Race 3 is still being uploaded, however if you click Videos (52), once it hits (53) you will know that it has uploaded! Will post the link once it is up!

    Enjoy! Race 3 was a hoot just quietly!

    GREAT vids Alex.........

    I have to keep reminding myself just how frustratingly light some of those small British cars are...

    it is a tough track - so many lines that you can take. Great for Porsche's, especially small motor cars like mine.... 2.0 litre!

    I looked at you web site and went directly to the yellow 2.4S/2.8RSR ... That was the car that was at European Collectables here in the States... yes? VERY cool.


    VERY nice cars,
    Cheers

    Love the vids Alex. Group S is my favorite, the close racing and huge mix of cars is hard to beat. Mighty effort for a 2.0. When are you racing in Sydney ?
