Glad to see we made the transition. CLAMS_West Racing is looking forward to the series!

[Pepsi 62]

The team from down under have been working furiously on the Scarletti. Reading the Italian manual and learning to communicate with our driver has been interesting.
bring on the racing

[Racing Bandit]

Bandit Racing has been working on fine tuning the BRM's handling, setting the cockpit up to the Bandit's specifications and getting some practice time in. The Bandit is looking forward to mixing it up again with our friends from the previous series. Good Luck to all teams!

CLAMS_West has been consulting with various aero companies on turbine reliability. The team feels confident that a full tear down has ensured new bearings in all portions of the engine. We are working with the torque converter, being slightly concerned with acceleration on some of the twisty F1 circuits. But we are thrilled to be a part of this series and look forward to great racing!

[slothead]

Slothead Racing is excited to see this proxy thread on the new HRW forum. Though we have not yet claimed a championship we remain optimistic and are hopeful for a great series with Jackie Stewart in the driver's seat.

First tests on the track
Teams reported good grip althought a bumpy track.

Both Ferraris and the Lotus still on need of work.

[chappyman66]

The CLAMS are searching for the right set-up. The turbine is solid, but the suspension travel is a challenge. It's been a rough weekend so far, with several changes as the team just can't seem to find the sweet spot.

Sorry I just noticed your post Slothead. I think you're putting too much confidence in Stewart. Waaaaaay past his prime and he's not even doing beer commercials anymore cause they found that no one recognizes him.

[slothead]

Slothead Racing intends to use top secret Time Warp technology to bring the Jackie Stewart from 1971 forward, then insert his essence into the #11 Tyrrell slot car. Stewart won the world championship in 1971 and we expect a similar outcome in this series.

We acknowledge that there is some risk in having 2 Stewarts in existence at the same time - if they should meet it would likely disrupt the space-time continuum and fracture our current definition of reality.

Well I've finally found the this proxy again ,have been on the pH. To the mechanics, my Italian Is not the best but from what I can translate testing has been going well down on speed handling very promising.
go team rastas!!!

[TuscoTodd]

The T-county boys are looking forward to the upcoming action!
