Miguel's Perspective.
"Great memories racing again – both on and off the track and good to meet some new people too, notably Juan – who gave up his weekend to help us with counting laps, refueling, etc and Mike who proved to be very smooth and proficient - putting in consistent 1.14 laps even with tyres well past their prime. Bearing in mind this was only our second race – we’ve been doing well. Our driver changes and pit stops were a lot quicker, although there’s always room to improve, I guess.
Our focus for the next race will be to improve the car further – not just getting our original Aragosta suspension repaired, but also getting it re-sprung and re-valved for best possible control. With less roll and suspension travel and quicker suspension response, plus a lighter car - we should not only be able to improve our lap times by 2-3 seconds for the same conditions but also reduce our tyre wear considerably, meaning less pit stops and less lost laps! I’d like to see a brake bias valve fitted to the car for the next race as well.
So Aki & I are off to get thie shocks delivered to Nishiki tonight. Will update more on this later.
Looking forward to November 23rd!"
Miguel.

Rear inside wheel lifting.
Sometimes lonely in qualifying and practice.

Race day pit for the oversubscribed Ebisu.
The office. It's pretty comfy actually.
Start to what?
Sumi-san is off.
Attack and Under Attack.
Just under attack here.
Bit of a nosedive under braking.
Sometimes lonely during the race too. But it doesn't last long...
"Here is a nice sequence of images"
Shows the tight racing that ebisu circuit can probide as well as safe overtaking places. Unlike Tsukuba.
Lights on and bring it home.
Another finish for TG-Racing.
