we didnt want carbon skins we wanted the doors as well but they went of on a tangent doing that which we didnt want as we ended up with more work on car after they were fitted.

Thanks Alex, will be a bit lost around Oulton as I have never been before but I hope the track day on Friday will help a lot.

Cheers John, the car has changed so much in the time we have owned it. Each event due to breakages or improvements has shaped the car to where it is now, I just hope that we are nearly there as the changes previous have been massive almost like driving a new car every time I have been out in it
![]() I have talked a lot to Tweenierob about changes and alterations that we have made, how the car feels, responds etc and we have changed the set up of the car to combat problems that have occurred. Having him clinging to the roll cage at Silverstone during warm up was a big relief but I think that we are both in agreement that the biggest improvement now will be down to me as a driver.Three track days and two events thus far, almost five different cars. It has been a massive learning curve for me and the team. Regardless of the up's and down's, despite everything we want the GTR's to be on top regardless of our misfortune or naive approach every day is a lesson learned and .................................................. .................. the understatement of the year? We have learnt a bit Smokey ![]()

A bit of in-car footage from Saturdays qualifying. Wasn't very happy as the day before the Taisan started to get a blow from the manifold and by qualifying I was having to change gear at 5000rpm with no boost.
The turbo gasket (rear turbo) had been blown out and one of the manifold studs had snapped. YouTube - Time Attack Oulton Park 2008 Here is a vid of the Team Monkfish Scoobie following me for a few laps YouTube - Time Attack 2008 - Rd 4 Oulton Park Big thanks to Justin for refitting the turbos, gaskets etc, the Taisan will be heading down to Torque exhausts to find out what happened and have the system checked and re jigged if needs be.
