Last time out was Phillip Island 14/11/15. Between a bit of weather and a bit of traffic I had lots of fun and managed to set a pb - 2m 5.2sec. I felt a bit of a rumble through the steering wheel mid corner, and thought it might be a bearing getting a bit tired. It felt fine on the drive home so I wasn't too concerned. I got around to checking it out this arvo and got quiet a surprise when I pulled this wheel off the front right.
