Till now car stays with me
In beginning of June I was again at Poznan Circuit to fight with yourself and beat my latest lap time (2.04).
In the morning weather was not bad I make 2 session, after that start to rain
I was keeping my thumbs to stop
After 2 more session stop raining and I pull out for another. In second lap I put 1:59 and in another session 1:55
So I did what is my plan - to break 2:00 in almera on this track
I think better lap time is reachable but balls of steel are major requirement
One failure only cross my plans after. On last lap I saw that I lost electric charging. I pull over to the PIT. Quick look under the hood and problem was recognized. Gasket between turbocharger and manifold crack and all heat and exhaust gases goes on alternator and fried it up
It was late and I need to think fast. I have 300km to home and I plan go back on my wheels. Im glad that I have some friends in Poznan and let me knew where is the nearest junkyard
Any partshop doesnt have propper alternator on shelf (fuck). So I get almera on the road without charging on the way to mentioned junkyard
Good to have Optima baterrie
The changing was 2 hour job
And all goes ok - I love my tools and that I took them with me
After all everything was ok
but... 200km after, situation get the same. Last 120km Im done on baterrie alone running on underpressure
Luckily I get home with just 10,6V in installation. So that's the story
Since now all parts required for repair are in my hand (including brand new oem alternator from UK), just time is matter
