The weather forecast for Monday is classic late spring bank holiday conditions.

It will be warm, around 19deg C max with a sunny spells and light showers.

There will be a 4mph headwind to contend with, so expect reasonable top speeds on the day.

More updates to be brought to you shortly.

(Well at least it ain't snowing, and will be less hot than my last trip to Elvington, phew!)

 

Perfect weather for 4 wheel drive turbos on a grippy surface, can't wait now

That's disengenuous m8


We want low temps (single figures) with a just slightly damp surface




Why? Well the AWD system works best in delivering traction when there is a slight slippage and low temps mean that the i/coolers will be working at nearer to optimum


(but we'll put up with nice weather )

 

Cold and no wind is what i want

 

or the usual hot air?

 

The first sign of any water will see me wheel spinning into the crowd, great

 

 

PTMW, do you mean disingenuous?

Don't want it to slip at all mate, woulod heat my viscous coupling unit up, and reduce overall drivetrain efficiency!

 

worthwhile reminding people who havent been to elvington that racing does continue if it rains there!
dont forget your helmets tho if racing!

 

Puff,

I dissagree that a damp surface is the best to launch on that is of course if you've got enough power to spin the wheels in the dry

 

any mup can rev to spin

but if you think about it, getting a little slip in there allows the AWD to start to work AGAINST further slip hence increasing the grip

Homer

Sorry m8 my spillinge is rbuish

 

I predict a very wet weekend

 

LOL

 

Wouldn't mind Puff, but the speelin u used was recognised by google aswell!!!!

Steve
