Hey Mark, me again with my latest report from round 3 of the championship over here in WA.

Last Sunday was round 3 ( and my first as a married man! ), and it was another damn hot one.

In the morning I banked a time with a slipping clutch and then set about trying to get the clutch right since this was my first time out with some updated clutch parts for my engine.

The day was a bit frustrating as it took some time to get a clutch combo working well. In the end, I just went with what I knew and since I had the limited track time, I was 3rd off the grid.

My engine tune was way off for the conditions, but as always, the Scorpion 333Z kept things under control and if it wasn't for my own mistake with 3 laps to go in the main it would have been win number 3 for the season.

As it was I was able to wobble around long enough to hold on to second place.

Thanks again for the great products.

P.S. In case anyone is wondering, no this is not a paid advertisement - I buy the fuel from the local distributor here since it has proven itself in the harsh conditions over here in WA.

Cheers,

Mike.
