It's looking like a wet one, so here's a much more grippy set:

A very difficult track when wet, still good fun however. Overall a rather average nite results wise for me, Really needed to play with gears and stay out of trouble a bit more. Had a good battle with Freezer in both races, we always seem to have some good close battles. Good stuff.

Congrats to Dave and Cam on his first podium, win and 2nd for the round.

I was just throwing setup changes at the car, left right and centre, at the start of each race, for the different conditions. Nothing made the car feel horrible, put it that way. I was surprised the racing was relatively incident free, and close, given the rain. Even had some good tight racing little packs here and there. It was disappointing to be caught up in an incident in race 3 though, and being sent off the track. And I didn't make the race 1 mistake of stalling on the line more than once.

I incrementally decreased the aero while simultaneously increasing the roll stiffness, making sure to keep the roll centre and aero CP at a similar percentage, so the handling stayed pretty good all three races. ;)
(Except for some bottoming in T8 due to a miscalculation in spring rate :()
It was a good night, I'm quite fond of precipitation, and I had some good battles with Cam, Tim and Glen.

And only 2 rounds to score a century! ;D

Had a fun night. Penalty for race one seems a bit stiff but I'll cop it  ;). No penalty for who ever turned me around in race 2 either  ::)

Can't wait for next round. See you all there

I can't remember the specific incidents now, but if you have full visibility of the car in front and you tag them I  the rear, sending them off or making them lose a position, that's usually a penalty. I'm more lenient with side-to-side contact, where there's doubt as to whether you could see the other car or even know he was there. That's usually not a penalty.

I was alongside on the outside and Tim moved over and tagged my front wheel. Doesn't matter, since I am not in the running for the series anyway. Just though the penalty was a bit rough
