Well gave it it's first run on Friday and the car went very well!
Managed to qualify 2nd to the Optima Mid and went on to set the fastest lap, unfortunately a coming together with another car on the straight meant I tumbled flat out into this aluminium ramp:
This popped a driveshaft out and even worse put the second scratch on the nose
The first scratch/chip was where I hit the wall/door frame after misjudging a corner!
The rest of the chassis is marked but I'm hoping it will polish up
Overall we had 6 cars in the vintage heat and someone tried to snap a picture at the start (apologies it was on my cell phone and the lighting isn't great)
Excellent fun and can't wait for the next round where we should have a couple more cars joining the fun
