North Weald Activity Day

My son, David and I went on a Lotus on Track Activity day organised by Andy Walsh of Carlimits.com on Friday 4th July

The day consisted of a fast left hand turn followed by two handling courses. We took some video but as they're large files and take forever to upload, I'll post as and when.

David hadn't driven my car before he sat looking down the long straight for the high speed turn :twisted:

Thanks Pablo, the car's going bloody well now and gave him a bit of a fright

He's had the driving bug since he started driving but no money

No one launches like Daddy though :lol:

Did I see the wipers go on during your run mate?

Now I watch those clips, I wish I was able to join you last week, that looked bloody superb fun and the wagon looks like a missile. Next time you invite me, I'll do everything I can to take you up on it.

Give him a chance. I've been driving it for 5 years to his 5 mins. Plus he had his old man breathing down his neck with the threat of castration should he so much as scratch it
