Sorry for the delay in updates.
Going back to September, here are the two 'TTRS' races at Donington GP. I used these races as practice ahead of my Championship races the next day.
Had some fun with a pesky Saxo with plenty of straightline poke. A shame that in this series 2nd in class doesn't earn a trophy.

The main PBMW races came on Sunday. My car really struggled to get around the Melbourne Loop and the hairpin onto the start straight, a lack of oomph in 3rd gear or the choice of bouncing off the limiter in 2nd.
Race 1 went ok, then it rained, something I had wanted all year.
Race 2 and I got a great start, got alongside Phil then two cars came together to his left, knocking into Phil who hit me. Sadly it broke Phils steering, whilst I limped around to take the restart, but it was pretty hopeless. Still, it finished, but needed weeks of work with new wings, sill, bumper and many many smaller parts before the final rounds at Snetterton.
It sold last week, end of chapter. More racing this year in a work colleagues R53 Mini.
