I have to apologies for the bad language,think i was loving the moment too much,o and also thought jim would put some music over the top

.
It was a open session near the end,we were sitting wating in the paddock to go out and didnt know ooppssss.
I think i did surprise a few people once i got used to the track and started to throw it into the corners abit more.
As a result im thinking of stripping the old girl out and using her for track,put going jap on hold for maybe a year

.
I think if i can get her to go round the twisty bit better then she will go well.

A nice and very amusing little video that :thumb: I take it overtaking on the right was OK then?

The car looks like it goes well enough, blighted by the weight obviously, you may even find you could carry a lot more speed if you adopted a 'slow in fast out' style......it may be kinder to the tyres and could do no harm. Not criticising your technique, I'm in no position to do that, just having owned a couple of T5's I always found them more responsive that way.

Glad you had fun anyway. With those huge runways you get no idea of speed at all.

Yes was told if there is a quicler car behind then pull over to the left to let it past,as for the driving style i will have to try your way the next time,im always up for advise.
