 Re: 2009 24hr Race at Snetterton
There's no such thing as a Hollis 'budget', but the problem was more coil related than starter motor, and we didn't want to lose more time swapping it when it was just as quick to bump it down the pits!

 Re: 2009 24hr Race at Snetterton
Hi Russell
Yep we will be entering the car next year (thats was the main reason for being at Snetterton to see what's what) tactics, looking at what's gone wrong, tyres, pit set up, food, beer etc. etc.
I am away until the weekend, so I will scan and send you the article

I am away until the weekend, so I will scan and send you the article in order 1 keep team away from beer as long as possible & keep the car going round and round as much as possible 3 make sure the 1st driver knows when the car is going to use up its last fuel BEFORE it stutters to a halt and incurs a 5 lap tow back penalty(again) 4 Tyres will probably be exclusevley Toyos next year as well as some other proposed "controll" items 5 empty contents of van in a big pile in corner and get the comfy chairs ready 6 Tyrols cafe/bar 7 see 1 and 6 etc etc Serious answers if you want, PM me

 Re: 2009 24hr Race at Snetterton
Sean Point 4 Toyo's, I believe we will be able to run Firestones alongside the Toyos throughout next season before going to an all Toyo tyre the following season
and yes any info you have will be of help
thanks
