A note from my girlfriend Lis, following yesterdays track day reads:

"At Oulton Park on Tuesday Mr.Black was gracious enough to take me out in his 'Chevied Up' Sagaris.

I believe psychiatrists have washed their hands of him as a lost cause. A belief compounded by the information that, as well as chucking himself around racetracks at ridiculous speeds, he also regularly throws himself off buildings and out of perfectly healthy planes! A lunatic of the highest order.

After 3 laps of hurtling into corners impossibly fast & fighting G-Force down the straights, I was returned safely to the pits. I climbed out of the car, somewhat clammy but grinning like a 6 year old on Christmas morning. It was brilliantly epic.

Thank you Paul. You are a lunatic, yet in the nicest possible way. You made me very happy".

Guys, I think I've lost her to the come hither grunts of the LS7 powered Sagaris! What a car Paul. You are a very, very lucky boy. And congratulations to TopCats Racing and others for developing such a beast and making it so controllable under all that power. I need to go away and re-think WICKED'S future now! Thanks Paul.

Hello,

Thanks for the comments

No problem, it was not exactly a difficult decision to say yes to having your good lady sitting next to me - at least in the afternoon I was getting used to the track.

Hope to meet you both again at some stage.

Paul......

When I read this at first, I thought that Mr Black had forced your GF off the track because of his 'spirited' driving, and she was being ever so slightly sarcastic!

Glad to see I was wrong. biggrin
