Here is a print out of my Timeslip...

It was BLOODY HOT! I spoke to the guy in the control tower, Highest Temp they recorded was 43 degrees. My car was having problems with the heat, i could do a run, then would have to park the car for 30min to cool right down. The Water temp was ok, it was just engine bay temp that was causing vapour lock or something like that... Thats what happened in the handbag race! LOL It was like i put the breaks on!!!
