Why must that many cars be a 'series' don't RX8 owners just hang out together like we do.

Pauls right, when Lauren spun I was chuffed she pushes that hard and glad she was ok. First thing I did was suggest she went out in it again but she preferred her own car.

she actually did me a favour as it seems the bolt that broke on the gear lever selector thing could have gone at any minute, far better there with stars like Zoobeef around than on the motorway heading home.

Bit late to the party, but great day out and catching up with everyone.

Had a stonking problem free morning but by afternoon the stutter/misfire of doom had returned!

Looking like dodgy lambda so fingers crossed.

 

Had a good session with the Silver 350Z in the morning and got cut up by the dickhead in the Radical at the end of Bently, lucky it was in Lees car and not mine ;)

Only managed to record a couple of sessions, unfortunately not the one with Martin driving my car or the final session when Ray came out for a pax which was a bit of a giggle :)

 

This was the first session of the day, lots of makes and a few vx's in the mix. Edited from a 30 minute stint.

Dave's always one of the fastest out there....and probably the fastest tubby pilot amongst us mere mortals. Glad you've got your car sorted Dave! I just need to get mine done now... P.S. Don't teach Lee how to drive properly, let him suffer!

damm I wish I could have got the day off to go to this,..work!!

 

On youtube the only video I have of my car is a Frosty Dave E battle! :D  so its good to see how quick Dave's car is round the  track and how well you cope with the power delivery,.. you seem to cope very well, which is my concern with the Stage 4 Vx.

 

I'm going on the car limits day to get to learn the car a bit better

 

Right need to see when the next track day is due!
