FireStorm Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 So after helping magpye out and allways intrested in racing, I decided to give it ago. I wasn't to keen on Cecil's builds so i decided to do it myself. After messing the escort up "not running still!!!" I decided to take the old road car, nova 1.2 out. Yes I could have selled it to a 1300 stock car boy or a rookie rod boy as it was a mint shell. But wheres the fun in that So after spending all week building it "thanks dad " with alot of help form the old man. He's the outcome Heat 1 - didn't do as i failed securtineering due to the way i had mounted the harness to one point Heat 2 - Went off the back and stayed out the way for a few laps, gave a few hits to see what it was like etc. then run out of petrol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "allways check petrol lvl's even if you think it's full" Was over steering as there was hardly any air in the outside front !!!!! So I retired due to no petrol left Final - went out last but spedeworth pulled the front half to the back, leaving me about 4 rows back, I went round and pulled off and let them go, Much better with air in the tire and petrol in the tank. Just stayed out the way and had abit of fun with the back end coming ronud Got 7th in the final out of 8 cars!!!! Least I wasn't last My First Ever Hit :D:D:D:D:D 793kbs - 10 seconds long www.1300stockcars.co.uk/bangers/07.05.2006/First_Hit.wmv 2nd heat - My first race - 24 meg big, 3 mins 5 seconds www.1300stockcars.co.uk/bangers/07.05.2006/Bovi_07.05.2006_Heat_2_First_Race.wmv Final 35meg big, 4 mins 28 seconds long. www.1300stockcars.co.uk/bangers/07.05.2006/Bovi_07.05.2006_Final.wmv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
