I think I had instruction from Will too, with the same "go on, go on, floor it" comments! :lol:

At one point he wanted me to go three-abreast along Revett as Donna was overtaking someone else

. The bloke had much greater confidence in the car than I ever could! :notworthy:

It definately helped though, at the end of the day I was keeping-up with and passing more people than before.

yes mate, had several over the years as I used to race them, got offered 17" dateline with trailer late last year for peanuts, well lets say the trailer is worth more, got a 80hp yamaha for it, just needs the interiour redoing, but to be honest I wont have the time to use it, but the boys keep bugging me and saying " is it finished yet dad" :lol:

Sorry for getting of subject, but I have got the track bug badly at the moment :x

Unfortunately the camera I was using decided to throw a fit early on but I did manage to get 1 small recording done :-D
