Today, Saturday, we tested at Opel's main proving grounds. Our autocross/endurance drivers performed a mock endurance which ended in a small failure. Several teeth were ripped off of the sprocket, possibly due to the sprocket having been bent during shipping. After a few hours of work a new sprocket and chain were on, with time to spare for some skidpad practice. This year the skidpad event at FSG will take place on a watered down surface, guaranteeing wet conditions. Luckily, the testing area provided by Opel had a built in irrigation system and could be flooded on demand, which we took full advantage of to better prepare our skidpad drivers.
The team is headed out for dinner, after which the car will be set up for tomorrow, our final day of testing.
