Dont bag the quality commentary.

LOL, no. I agree there were some dud comments that got anoying, but for the most part it is whats needed to keep the crowd into it (keep in mind most of the crowd dont have much Idea of whats going on) And a more well-mannered approach to commentry would probably make it a little dull for your avg joe dirt.

So its kind of a necessary evil

I had a string of problems that night;

Clutch had been slipping for some time so I decided to run no boost so I could actually get some form of power to the drivetrain.

I also had a new set of wheels with semi slicks on them and theyd only run on the rears (I hadnt had a chance to throw off the semi slicks) So no matter what I did the rear end would not stay out.

To add to this the rear end refused to lock the first few rounds. (handbrake adjustment problem)

So by the end of the night I was a little frustrated, I threw on my street tyres, turned up the boost and actually got a half deacent run in just before 9pm. But the clutch was letting loose as soon as boost started to hit above 5psi, so i was throttle blipping on the straights.

Upon closer inspection it seems I was also leaking diff oil from the axles, and the gasket from turbo/dump flange was fried and sucked into the cat meaning I could take off the bolts by hand

All this will be sorted by Jan 28th hopefully. Im itching to have a proper shot.

Look out for Team Dirty Ibis D in Jan.
