Having missed the two Toyo Tires Racing Saloons rounds at Zandvoort it was starting to feel like a very long break from racing. Rounds 7 and 8 were increased in lengths to 20 minutes for race 1 and 30 minutes for race to with each race having a compulsory pit stop. With this being the case I decided to share the car with a friend who'd just got his race license.
With both of us having to compete at least 3 laps to qualify the 15 minute session was pretty busy meaning I had 1 out lap, 1 timed and 1 in lap. Ended up qualifying …., fairly decent start but couldn't catch the cars in front on the used tyres we'd decided to run on. Handing over after 4 laps and James headed out for his first ever competitive laps. For his first race he did a great job of defending from Callum Noble who at times managed to get along side and eventually pull a gap of 1.6 seconds to leave us in 17th overall
Race 2 was much the same with us finishing 15th overall after a couple of retirements further up the field. best time of 2:28.777 was a little way off the best times of last year but with limited running on old tires I was optimistic that the times would come down a bit in the PBMW races on the following day.
