A new experience

Post by A2ON »

Never been in a convertible

Never been in a kit car or similar

Today went out in a rental "Tiger Avon" 2ltr duratec at Cadwell park

It was a blast and was as mad as I imagined

I've lost 5 stone in the last 5 months which is as well as I would not have been able to fit behind the wheel !

Got it again for Snetterton on the 4th Nov (a day after the big power karting trip 50 laps , I'm gonna ache ! )

I take it this is Dave/Opentrack's Tiger? I remember going in an R1 Indy years ago at Donington and I had to 'rewire' my brain to get around the braking distances, cornering lines and (lack of) size of the thing........don't even get me started on grip levels!! :D

Surprised that you've never been in a open topped car before. Everyone should :thumbs:
