Laatste update dit jaar..
Tweede geworden met de Time Attack Pro FWD
Niet omdat ik zo snel was maar omdat ik elke race heb gereden en twee keer 3rde ben geworden.
Ik ben niet trots op mijn tijden so far maar er zijn een hoop dingen die ik ga verbeteren.
Onderanderen een kleinere turbo, minder vermogen.
Ik heb bijna geen enkele race goed kunnen rijden al was het wel leuk!
volgend jaar weer verder..
als er vragen zijn hoor ik het!
Wheels: JR5 17×9.5j ET25 wheels Gunmetal with custom red pinstripe
Tires: Nankang N2 SR 120 track 255/40R17 tires
Third round of Time attack 2016 &th of July
We were lucky with the weather. My good friends Rob and Tom came with me to help.
I had plenty of problems with the car. RH driveshaft kept popping out. but thanks to Rob and Tom i did make it to the finals and win 3rd place!
O crap… driveshaft popped out on the beginning of the straight. luckely I made it to the pit and got some help!

The “mechanics” chatting away
Still managed to secure 3rd place with help of the guys!
A week later.. the car was almost ready my worst nightmare happened.. After getting some fuel at a petrolstation close to my garage I pulled away to go to the APK (MOT) check..
When I did a U turn I put my foot down too hard and lost control of the car. It suddenly veered to the left and I had no space.. Hit a tree and slid off the banking toward the water.
I was extremely lucky I didn’t roll .. I got help from a local garage and had my car back in my shop 30 min later.. where I sat down in shock. :”(
The next time attack was in 2.5 wheeks.. what was I going to do now.. the whole front-end was damaged, tractionbar bend.. even the frame wat bend..
I had one week to fix it as I had to work and had a holiday planned.
LETS GO FOR IT..
It took me litteraly BLOOD-SWEAT and some tears.. worked on the car 12 hours a day.
ordered parts from FullCarTuning who where awesome!! and just got it done in time!
Two weeks later… on the trailer to Assen
ROUND FOUR Time Attack 2016
It was a very wet day in Assen and had no grip at all.
Also did not have time to get the car alligned so it was not straight when braking hard.
Took it easy and kept it in one piece. I only became 5th that day but it was fun.
First a video of my hotlap. It started pouring when I left the pitlane. Water came in via the roofscoop and the track turned very slippery.
this is me struggling for grip.

Results this year: 3rd twice and 2nd overall!
Not because I was so quick but because I kept on going!
Thanks to everyone who helped and supported me!
Till next year! Plenty of things to fix and upgrade!!
