Superb pics and video.

I'll just also say what a superb choice of alloy, BMW certainly got that one right compared to some of its other offerings.

Looks like you had a blast out there !!

Looks like a great track, I would love to do Cadwell one day. Looks like you had a great day too. Good times.

Cracking Vid

The bimmer looks like it's loving it round there and i thought your driving was very smooth tinged with a bit of agression. Brilliant :twisted:

That looks a superb bit of fast Tarmac, and as has been said very addicitve!! Nice one :thumb:

Cheers for the comments. The Bimmer really does go round Cadwell nicely. Here's yet more video. This one contains much better driving and a short duel with an Elise

I think the Elise driver was either rubbish or not trying at all. By all rights he should have left you for dust on the twisties.

That's no slur on your excellent driving skills though Tommy as i think you were probably at the very limit of your car's adhesion/speed capability.

Nice driving again!!

I agree with you, the Elise had more to give

Interestingly Stu, that's exactly my feeling about the Honda - bulletproof compared to the RX-7...

Sorry for the off-topic - Cadwell looks great and I hope my car goes round there as well as yours Tommy

Cheers,
