Excellent race report, and some fine cars. I knew this was a tough field and I am happy to do better this year then I did last year. Some really great cars running cars, and it is very helpful to see how far off the pace the BARC cars are running. A little surprising to hear the complaint about the tires were out of round on the BARC entries as a lot of time was spent truing them, but I guess not enough for the smooth Desmo.
The fast lap on the 956 has me close to the front in speed so we are heading in the right direction.
Congratulations to the winners of this prestigious event. It is the LeMans of the 143 world and an honor for those that placed. For the rest of us it is back to the Drawing board and start preparing better cars for next year.
It was an honor to have the BARC cars race against some of the best 143 builders, and we look forward to the next event.
Cheers
Dan
