Round 5 – NSW Championship – One Raceway 🏁🏆🥇
We were back at one raceway for the final round of the year with a 2 day race format. We were allocated garage 1 and 2 sharing with ben and his S15 which made it a super fun weekend!
Silvias unite!
Friday practice- we tried some changes and got back in the groove after some time out of the car.
Saturday - Qualy - track was hot and greased up i overdrove it slightly to force a lap and managed pole U2l and P2 outright a few tenths separating a speedy Joseph , myself and Ben.
Race 1 - track temps seemed high, challenging conditions
P1 Unders and i keapt that P2 outright spot and fastest lap of the race. A brief visit from the marshalls post race informed us i had exceeded the noise limit which we found super odd. Never having this issue before we narrowed it down to changing shift points. Luckily i had a trusty elbow to put on for the rest of the weekend.
Sunday- 40 mins before race 2 in my usual warm up, i realise the alt bracket is cracked and barely holding on. (Great way to spike your heartrate) Luckily i had prepared for this with a spare on hand and it was all hands on deck to get it swapped in 20 mins. With a lend of a grinder from matt Wildridge , legend!
Race 2 , i managed our pace this race securing a P1 unders and P3 outright.
Race 3, last race of the year, I wanted to manage this race, nothing stupid. But a hard charging jordan in his wrx keapt me honest pushing me all the way. P1 unders P3 outright.
Strong weekend, securing the round win. I lookforward to covering more details in the post to come regarding the championship!
Thankyou to the legends at JLM Lubricants Australia & New Zealand for the gift pack, its already being put to work!
