Yup, it was fantastic.
I was average - the car was stupendous - and got me through an hour of mayhem unscathed!!
It's astonishing what these things can actually do when given the opportunity.
Now you're probably going to hear stories from Craig about how he got past me, and how I overshot the chicane trying to keep up with him, but as as I explained at the time, my gearbox was playing up and wouldn't change down. I had also lost 0.5 psi in the front offside tyre, so he was BOUND to get past wasn't he?
Now the L plates are off, I'm looking forward to getting on track with the Big Boys!!

Great excuses there Steve, I've written them down for (frequent) future use!
Glad you guys enjoyed it.

Well boys what can I say? My first Autodrome experience!
And it was Aaaawesome!
I dont know what people here are able to hit on the start finish straigh but I saw 248kph glowing on my heads up tonight.
Steve and I are now hooked!
I normally hit around 215-220kph, which given the power difference, I think is ok. And it was Aaaawesome!

Thing is - how much speed did you carry through?
What layout where you on? The full GP or the shorter ones? What lap times?

We were on the club circuit. The car will go faster down the straight but my balls aint big enough to let it do it as I was beaking well before the red cone
We dont know the lap times as we were told we could be timed!
