Well, what can i say...for those of you there, you will already know that i didnt even turn a wheel in qualifying. For those who could attend...as you guess, you missed nothing.
All was good going into Brands Hatch. We weighed the car, we go ready for scrutineering and then disaster happened. A fuel leak from somewhere deep within the engine!! With qualifying rapidly approaching, we asked for a knowledgeable eye from the guys at Rogue Motorsport who confirmed out worst fears. The leak was coming from the fuel injectors, atleast cylinder 4, and it was possible but a big job to fix, if we could even obtain parts.
After speaking to the club officials, a quick decision had to be made to pull out of the event and attempt to recoupe some Race Entry costs. Despite and initial hiccup, we did recoupe some costs, but will never settle the gut-wrenching feeling of having yet another visit to Brands Hatch ruined. Brands Hatch is becoming our nemesis, but we'd rather look upon it that next season will be third time lucky!!!
Next on the agenda, my home track of Snetterton.
