The updated Formula Tour 1600 Championship table has been released after last weekend. I took advantage of many drivers missing the weekend to vault myself from 30th place to 16th place, and if I hadn’t missed Race 2 I would likely have been in 11th! In hindsight I should have taken the start and promptly retired, thus getting points for 9th place. Oh well.

Rounds 9, 10, and 11 are coming up in 3 weeks at the Trois Riveres street circuit. We’re getting the brakes re-built because as far as we know it hasn’t been done since the car was made. We had the engine blueprinted, so I can’t complain about that anymore. We’re still 1.5-2 seconds off of the leaders. Now we need to focus on improving the chassis, and improving my driving. The alignment and corner weights are way off and we need an experience engineer to help us set those up. To improve my driving, I’ll have to hire a coach. But I don’t really have the budget for it at the moment.

I’ll try to get the races from last weekend up on YouTube tomorrow, but if I don’t get to it by then it’ll have to wait until next week.

Question for you. Have you heard of a kid called Simon Sykes? He is a friend of mine going through the skip barber series and finished second in the championship last year.
