sandown state race 26-27 july

[cheaterparts]

well I off to play this w/e at sandown with the sigma
yes we are in the big game ( or the next one up from sprints )
looks like 4 races for me with a 6 and 8 lap on sat and a 10 and 8 on sunday
I'll post a sports report ( from back in the grid more than likely) next week
it seems there are 2 evos in the field like me new guys to racing so I dont know them

how did it all go, I was trying to get down there

well things did not go to plan !
qualifying went bad with the engine dropping a cylinder and as I had just fitted my race plugs I figured that a lead had come off .
Wrong ! the no 4 plug had fused the electrodes and no 3 plug was white but both the front plugs where good - must have some sh*t in the carb with plenty of time to race 1 the carb was wipped apart and cleaned . nothing was found wrong but on refitting and setting up the engine seamed sweet.

race 1 and with a qualifying time of 2:42 or something ( a bloke could run around sandown faster ) or thats how it seamed. that got me 40th on the grid and you cant go backward from there - so I thought
well the lights go out and the sigma felt strong pasted 4 cars by turn one but with only 2 laps of race 1 and the engine again leaned out - result a hole in no 2 piston

I haven't found the fault as yet,I dont beleve it was the jetting think it may be a fuel pump issue

any way I met up with one of the evo guys ( sam walpole in his evo 6 ) it was his first meeting also . the guy drove well and the first race on sunday was in the wet,and it is a joke just how much traction 4wds have.
sam picked up a second place in the wet
the other evo 6 didn't run it developed a rear main leak

any way the engine will come out this week so I can rebuild it and try to make it to caulder 20-21 sep
