White (Peter Jones' current track MkI Golf) continued to give trouble at Sandown today as Peter tried changing several fuel and ignition components with only minor improvements
The PoD ran quite well today with the Motorsport map almost certainly minimising the amount of time that I lost to only half a second in today's damp conditions vs the time I set last round in perfect conditions.

Yeah not a great day out for me today.
Each time I went out the car cut out one lap in . I got towed in twice.
I'm leaning towards ignition failure now rather than fueling. The data logs show odd features in the RPM graphs that shouldn't be there. They're consistent with an intermittent signal from the crank angle sensor.
I've ordered new coil, crank angle sensor and crank angle sensor as well as the in tank fuel filer which we discovered was very blocked today.
Only time will tell if I've fixed it. Might have to book some time on the dyno to make sure it's fixed.

Time to throw out the Advans and get some Toyo R888's or Bridgestone RE55.
