Ha, you mean the grille I made out of Playdough/Plaster molds and fibreglass? 8)

...BTW the R4's Lionhart tires this weekend felt as grippy as that plaster compound (hard as a freakin rock), but then again I've never been very competitive with any Quattro's I've brought over :?

We were wondering where you got the nose from an R8. Your creations are really amazing, and always entertaining.

My only regret was not using the mold I made of an R8 hood, as the nose is kinda came out shaped like...

But it's still may be better than the El Camino version I briefly considered :roll:

Big thanks to everyone who came out. Really nice seeing 49-54 people between the 2 days. Fridays School went great, test and tune seemed to run okay. Need to come up with a better rotation system. maybe next time we will do either run groups or worker times.
Congrats to Steve for his wins, one with a cone and Devon on what I was surprised to find out was his first FTD?

Fun watching everyone's video. Ill try and get 1 of my runs up this week. Need to take a few videos and see the difference between 92HP and 200-300 HP. lol

We have our next event on July 16th at the sackville church location. Last event prior to nationals. So make your final tweaks and get ready for a road trip.

One more, My 97.6 rawtime vs Ben's 97.8 clean.



A lesson in getting the showcase sweepers right at digby. He almost makes up the entire run in one turn.

Audio is a mix of wind, cbc radio and a single cam sewing machine under the hood.

Looking at the results from Digby (long course) I don't see the difference that I expected from say the church parking lot except that the mustang was well behind. Could be that people are out of practise on the big courses.
