V8 Utes: McNally Settles In At Qld Raceway
Glenn McNally has made a measured start to his first V8 Utes event at Queensland Raceway today as he settled into the circuit in the opening two practice sessions.
Taking a similar approach to the one that worked so well in Darwin, Glenn spent the first session familiarizing himself with the circuit, setting 20th fastest lap as he found his braking markers and worked his way up to speed.
“It was just a matter of one step at a time and setting up for qualifying tomorrow,” Glenn said.
“I probably didn’t push beyond 80 or 90 percent in the first session because it is so important to learn the track without pushing too hard.”
The second session proved to be frustrating for Glenn with much new brake pads needing to be bedding in, and then a succession of red flags ruining any chance of Glenn building up to a fast lap time.
“I am in a similar position today to what I was in Darwin,” he said.
“I will do a track walk and work out where I can go faster and then just go out there and have a go in qualifying.
“To be in the top 16 in the first race is the aim so that I can get some advantage from the race 2 (reverse-top-16) format.”
Glenn has qualifying at 8.55am tomorrow and Race 1 at 12.45pm.
