I think it was the heat in them that caused them to do that. i guess i was being harsher than necessary on the throttle. The organisers were saying that gareth and elliot only use as much throttle as is needed to get is sideways.![]()
Was it a busy day? Did you have to queue between runs? If not, maybe that's why you suffered. On all but one of the days I've done we get a few minutes of wait time between runs so the tyres cool down. On the really quiet day I could have just kept going as there was only two cars on track!
You don't need a lot of throttle in the CSL, and I do the whole thing in 2nd gear (I start in 2nd)
Shame you knackered the tyres though - hope it didn't spoil the day. If you'd asked me beforehand if you'd wreck the tyres I'd have said 100% NO!
