  I have quite a bit of footage of you all, and of a heron I had to take avoiding action from as it was stood in the middle of the track!

  You have to post that up! Sean was going on about it on the boat on the way back and we said he'd just imagined it as there was no evidence on his camera. 

See, I wasn't seeing imaginary suicidal birdlife. It was waiting for me so it could step out in front. Glad Mark scared it away.

 

 

I aimed for it, in the hope that it would move, and it did. I thought if I stayed on the line which was the way it was walking it may set of and fly infront of me. I was doing about 90 at the time!

Great event as always and good to see some fresh blood making the trip after the regulars bigging it up for years!  

  Thanks for posting that up - interesting to watch my car from behind. It does wriggle mid corner a bit - which ties in with my almost comical constant sawing at the wheel I end up doing when upto speed.. I keep blaming my tyres (which admittedly are 3 years old AD08) but in all honesty is probably just lack of ability. Here's the same session from my footage.. which may be of vague interest to those in it (WrightStuff, Acidpopstar, MartinS) Notice Acidpopstar's satnav/phone or whatever it was fly off the car as we leave pitlane.

It's strange Joe, I see the revs rise and I'm sure I can hear an engine but you're still doing 0mph

Typical Lotus rear wheel sensor fubar'd?

It's because 'road' spec gt hubs don't come with a speedo sensor which I'm really fucked off with. Eliseparts told me to drill them but I don't want to too that. Will make a bracket one day

That's more than a little disappointing. But I guess Geary probably thinks that GT Hubs will only be used on the track and why do you need your speedo as a result!

Funniest. Car. Ever. It just shouts at you a perfect match for Joe and despite only having 3.5ft/lb of torque its well rapid. Thanks for the pax

Finally back home and totally knackered. Had an awesome time, both on and off track. A couple of minor issues, rear off side lens flew off somewhere between Calais and Zandvoort, so if anyone has a spare around or know where to get one, that would be great. Kieron pulled my rear view mirror off, so need a new one of those. 😝 Then I discovered I'd been driving round on a puncture all day! Huge thanks to Zoobeef for letting me borrow the wheel off his car to get me home!! 💪

Try sending a PM to GMS on here - I believe he makes rear lenses if you cant find one.

  A lot of people were impressed with the Evora, and you certainly pedal it well!  

Great commentary! Is that Acidpopstar passengering with you?

Can't you use a sensor off the fronts?

[Peter VXR29]
