6 or 7 signatures on your upgrade takes your from B to A - might just mean doing a bit more races in things like the SMRC etc.

I'd imagine as the race organiser for LCE now, Golding would be able to set what license you'd need to compete - so he'd set that wherever he wanted (Nat B for instance) That'd be my take, but I'm not 100% on this.

Was Spa a Lotus Trophy organised event, or was it piggybacked onto another meeting? Quite possible if it was on another meeting that other regs may have gotten involved.

Jolly good Scotty.

Very considerate of you not to pass the F360 in the people carrier.

I should have said.

The Seat Leons were all being used as part of the Ferrari experience, so I did my Ards in an Alhambra 7 seater. We were out on track with Leons and the 360 at the same time. Some of you will know Duncan our instructor, he was great all day and was very laid back about it. When I went out ,I drove about 50% and after the first lap we were chatting about my racing etc and to be honest I really wasn't paying much attention to my driving, next thing I was catching the 360 :damnfunny, to be fair it was going very slow. I backed off a bit and looked at Duncan and he said "ye you really don't want to spoiler there day" :damnfunny . That will do :thumbsup

beautiful - well done mate - another barrier to your first race passed :thumbsup

When i did mine i was having to avoid spinning single seaters in a monsoon, but i passed them all, including the guy who spun off in to the infield at the hairpin, that was left to "cool down" for a bit :damnfunny

Scalping the 360 in an Alhambra though, that would have been worthy of one of those mastercards statements;

Ferrari driving Birthday present - £300
Lunch and day out - £100
New driving shoes - £60
Getting scalped while driving my dream Ferrari, by a f***ing Seat Alhambra, PRICELESS. (or replace that line with Talent - PRICELESS) pic of scalping Alhambra :mrgreen:

Next thing you'll be telling us you stayed on the track :damnfunny

Well done mate - was hoping to be down for Donny, but just realised its the Gadget Show Live weekend :cry:
