hi guys , just a quick note on sunday , wot a giggle .
decided this time to play all day and what fun ! sorry if i held anyone up but i decided to go sideways alot this time to see what the car could do and was pleasantly pleased , very consistent and progressive to slide fast , but i did kill my GSD3s a bit .
new NITRAC discs performed without any major issues , as did the ferodo ds pads .
car was down on top speed this time , 140 on the straights as opposed to 160 last time out , due to the remap now giving me more mid range power instead of top end , but still pleased .
it was good to put some faces to names again , met tommy , chris , jason and andrea , the green BMs were out in force that day !
will have to have a look at your setup jason , i was very impressed at how well your car corners might have to get what you have put on , mine just seems to slide but your car was on rails , couldnt stay with you in the corners .
all in all a nother cracking day at marham , big thanks to all at the base for putting on another great event and from what i heard they raised over 20k this time , well done to all .
cant wait till august :thumb:
will see you all at the autotest , should be a giggle !

I'm sure he swapped wheels around a bit - as later in the day it had black and chrome rims ..

He looked a little surprised when Jason took him round the outside of a bend !!! .. then shot off down the main straight to be caught again through the bends buy the wee green bomber :)
