Preparation for Snett

For some of today and yesterday I have been getting the car ready for Snetterton. (Getting a bit too excited to be honest).

In summary. I have added additional stickers to the car. So many thanks go to -

‘For Your walls’ – Louth Framing
’Signs for the times’ – Skegness
’Glider Graffix’ – Glider artwork

I have also today added a lot of lead to the car. This will allow me to run the car with less fuel and less weight over the rear axle. This took me quite a bit of time because I had to weigh the lead and try and calculate how much I needed. (Think I have it right!) I also had to saw off the end of the bolts. Just what female teachers do in their holidays!! Hoping I will be able to get to the weighing scales over the weekend to see how much it weighs in total.

I have taken my tyres to a garage in town to get the reams transferred so that I will not have to practice with my race tyres on Friday. I’ll save them for the races. I have relocated my lap timer and egg timer.

Weather forecast for the weekend appears to be changing. This morning it was perfect and now it has changed to rain on Saturday. Hey ho. At least I have my wet tyres now!

Not long until Friday. Nice early start to look forward to.
