He was very quick : pole position on a grid of 48 cars! But in the race he went off in the 1st lap. That was a big disappointment of course. We repaired the car for the 2nd race. He had to start from last position(45th). After 4 laps he was in 7th position. Then some bad luck came in : the spring inside one of the Weber carburettors broke and hindered the trottle shaft : the trottle stayed partly open and it was impossible to drive the car like that. We did 2 attempts to fix it. After the 1st pit stop, Karl could do some more laps and got the fastest overall laptime of the race with 2'00"490. Without the accident in the first race, he could have finished 1st or 2nd. It's a pity. Karl is a very safe driver, he very seldom has a spin. </div><div>Some of these video's will only be available tomorrow and if the links don't work, you simply can search in youtube with "Marcel Van Mulders".</div><div>Marcel.</div><hr id="zwchr"><div><b>Van: </b>"van mulders marcel" <van.mulders.marcel@telenet.be><br><b>Aan: </b>"tr4racing" <tr4racing@googlemail.com><br><b>Cc: </b>"fot" <fot@autox.team.net><br><b>Verzonden: </b>Vrijdag 21 augustus 2020 09:24:13<br><b>Onderwerp: </b>Re: [Fot] Grattan race 2<br></div><br><div><div style="font-family:'verdana' , 'arial' , 'helvetica' , sans-serif;font-size:10pt;color:#000000"><div><a href="https://youtu.be/GP23e6fUosQ" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer nofollow noopener noreferrer nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/GP23e6fUosQ</a><br></div><div>Some of you may have seen this video of my car at the Hockenheimring some weeks ago : it was eating MG's with ease and also all the other cars except for a lightweight jaguar E-type and a very fast TVR/driver with TR6 engine. So 2' 6" was good for 3rd position on the grid, only half a second slower than the TVR. The secret? IT WAS NOT ME AT THE WHEEL!! Karl Chandeck was driving for me : not a prof racer but very fast anyway. Sadly the engine broke : holed engine block and big fire. I was always faster than the MG's but now being 68yrs old, I got slower and slower in the last couple of years without noticing it. I thought it was my car and I worked on it, but I remained in the midfield instead of at the front where I used to be. My car getting faster and me getting slower : the result has been a steady state. With 68yrs one hasn't to be slow, but for me it has turned out like that. But I hope it is not a definite fate and Karl is learning me to be faster again. We'll see if I'll succeed, if not, Karl will take over the driving completely. Next race is at Zandvoort on septembre the 12th.
