A shame with the gears. You did well throughout the whole meeting given the link problem, Very good driving. In Vee, with lack of power, having all the gears available is quite important. Had only one race like that, Castle Combe-pre chicane days, so pretty quick but l lost top gear so left it in 3rd but you lost two gears which makes your drive impressive. Hope you enjoyed the trip though.
Thanks! If I had to lose those gears at any circuit, Mondello was probably about the best place! it's just about possible to keep it screaming in third on both straights, and as my side draft carbs pull from a bit lower down I can just about chug up the revs in 3rd out of the hairpins. The trip was great but a bit hampered by the broken ribs... Hopefully we'll get to return some day!
