Well, we just got back from our test session at Cromer forest, located in the Mount Crawford forest not far from Mount Pleasant. Although we had a short day, it proved to be invaluable as it provided some good seat time in the Regacy as we tried some different suspension settings and tire pressures. In fact the only problem we encountered was that my Terraphone intercom speakers in my helmet ceased to work, I'll purchase a new set tomorow so hopefully that should sort that. Doing 150kmh down a little muddy dirt road and then scandinavian flicking into a 1st gear hairpin is fun...Another cool moment was the chance to meet and speak with Neal Bates and Coral Taylor. As it turns out they were the only other crew testing with us, and it was really good to spend some time with them and have a close look at their S2000 Corolla. Its an insane little beast, and sounded incredible tearing around the little 1.7km test stage. The speed they were carrying through some corners was unbelievable... although they are seeded 1st which explains a bit. Anyway, bring on Friday night!
