How many miles on the car ?

Is its ~500 or so, you should be blipping past 6 off and on for the running in procedure (but not all the time !)

Braver than me is all I can say :) I managed it on a few long straights, but the slightest bend / bump and I absolutely sh*t myself. I let off gently before any bend, and when the revs have returned to a reasonable level, I might downshift to the gear below to let myself calm down a little...

I would not like to come of the road with that second cam still engaged :shock: ...

Enjoy you will find that you very soon get used to it and start to need the fix of that power more and more. Once you do your smile will get broader and broader <BG>
