The end of the season on Red ... - Toyota Sprinter Trueno, 1.6 liter, 1997

Well, winter is coming, the season is coming to an end. On 10.10.10.))) the last stage of the season was scheduled on the Red Ring. I decided that I would go anyway. I didn’t prepare the car much already, because. finances sing romances. (I poured fresh oil into the engine and gearbox and forward.
This time we went from Tomsk in a stripped-down line-up, Slava and I, who rode the whole season on the integral, rode on my trunk in a pair, together with us Petya moved to Evik 6. Later, our Spec-C and drag supra joined us, who also decided to try their hand at the ring.
On Thursday, the 7th, by lunchtime, we will scatter with work and start to the edge. The car is crammed to the eyeballs, six wheels, four neos and two slicks, two more ride in a Subaru, took them, we thought we'd try it, but the weather didn't allow it.

At about 10 pm we arrived at our "favorite" hotel and fell asleep.
On Friday morning we quickly get up early, change our shoes and rush to the service to Gocha to make the collapse. Of course, his service is super, we probably have such cleanliness in hospitals, even though we go to Krasnoyarsk for service all the time.) With the collapse, by the way, they were transported until lunch, plus they lowered the car to the maximum.
After Gocha we blow on the ring to train. To our regret, it turned out that the races today are paid. (

But still, they skated three sessions. The track this time was, by the way, counter-clockwise, so we have not yet ridden even once. The first two sessions I rode like the first time, but then I began to gradually find the right trajectories. Then Arkasha Tsaregradtsev got behind the wheel and pulled me around the ring, showing me how to drive.) Yuzali this time Race-Chrono, by the way, comparing our circles and Arkashin, there is no difference in trajectories, Arkady stupidly everywhere more crushes the sneaker.) So what needs to be rolled in. Arkasha said that my brakes were useless (as it turned out later, the pads came to an end) and put Cass-Sport on a black Trueno with P-Mu discs and pads in a circle, with a block and screws, but it really accelerates and brakes better than mine. (
Tired, we go home to bleed the brakes on Trun and Evik and sleep.
Saturday qualifying. we declare with Slava in two classes in the "first" and in the "atmospheric". Slava goes first, shows the third time in the "first" class qualifier, I follow him, I mess up wherever possible and in the end only 6th and stay out. Next qualifier "atmo" class, I improve my time by two seconds, but here again the sixth, (Slava is 5th. As a result, we decided that Slava will act in the "atmo" class, because there is a decent gap from the leaders and on the podium there I don't have much hope, but I'll just have fun driving
on Sunday.What we have according to the results of the qualifier: a car from Tomsk in each class, and in the GT-500 there are already two - Evik and Supra. In the evening, at the campsite, we dismantle Evik's brakes - there are no pads,
On Sunday, the weather brought a surprise, the rain is not going to stop. Well, okay, let's pack up and go to the ring. While drinking tea in a cafe, Gocha brought pads, which we quickly put on Evik. Before that, as in September, I screwed the muffler again.)
And so the final races: "First" class and Slava takes second place, circling Trueno Cass-sport. Pants full of joy.)

I skated for myself "atmo" class — the fifth. On the last lap, I also flew out a little.)

Then "turbo stock" Petya takes the second place. GT-350 - Petya is the third.) And GT-500 - Petya is the second, and Sanya is the third on the Supra. In the GT-500 on the eve of the qualu, the evil Evo cramps of Peter Makulov won with a time of 1.00. In the rain, this cramps could not do anything on the slicks, as a result, I have better time than the 600-horsepower Evik.) ) )

The awards are going on. Tomsk for the second stage in a row collects podiums in four out of five classes. We raise the car, put new pads, change shoes and start home. We arrived home without incident.)
It’s a pity that the season is over. (The debut in Time Attack showed our shortcomings and shortcomings, trying to eliminate them in the offseason. But the most important thing is that you need to train a lot, rolling in decides a lot.
