Sandown

Second track day for Tyra! I was looking forward to this one for a while (having missed Winton), but the weather wasn't looking promising. Fortunately it turned out to be an absolutely perfect day. Pity my driving wasn't so great.

Not that it was bad mind you, I still cleaned up Standard NB class, with a best of 1:36.3.

But I am still over 1 second off James' outstanding lap record, and I only did 2.5 of 4 sessions after severely flat-spotting a couple of tyres. Not happy. I reckon I could have knocked another 0.5 or so off my best, but there was no point continuing to trash tyres.

Reflectors

Just a small mod I did that has been in the plan for a while... I finally tinted the corner reflectors. Looks good I think. Tempted to do some of the lights (eg centre brake light and side repeaters) but I'm not keen on reducing light output...
