Well, my upgraded braking system paid it back!
(Now EBC Turbo Gooved discs and red pads and
racing brake fluid)
We rode with the guy who got second place (Opel
Manta '79 (Pic 7) with '90 Opel Omega 3.0 liter engine)
and he overaccelerated me anytime, but he couldn't
brake that fast as his tires started to lock up one by
one and he had to choose longer braking distance. :)

The text is mostly complaining about the rainy feather
and the fact that the first 9 cars had to be discualified
as it started to rain and the track got wet. So actually
my best time was 53.31 on that day and it also was the
best time then and I was very dissapointed when they
canceled my time and then some bmw guys laughed at
me, that I can't win, so I got a bit angry and did some
serious driving as I was the only one who got better
time on second try (as the track got even more and
more wet and slippy) and my both times where
unbeatable (First 56,18 and Second 55,97 next best was
Opel Manta 56,22).

Ok, I'm on pic 3 and 32 with car and 34 (right), 37 (right upper),
and 38 (center) without and you can't expect me to look normal
after having stood in hard rain for 4 hours without umbrella.

Lauri!
