First time out with the new car, to a Danish race
In qualifying.
First round
the car was a little loose, that lead to a mistake
Second round
So I did make long camber links in rear, Is make the rear more calm and the car easy to drive.
lap time was faster and constant after this change. Got the fastest lap time.
But no luck for me, because I did run out of fuel with 5 meters to the line.

Roar Nationals
Colorado Springs, Colorado
