ARDS isn't too ARDuouS.... :)

More of a formality to keep complete eejits off the grid... :wink:

You'll find you know all the flags already - Perhaps other than the white one (slow vehicle), and the fact they can use the union jack / saltire if the green lights fail on the start line...

The driving bit is simple too - You don't even need to heel and toe if you don't want to...(Not too easy anyway I'd imagine, in the Seat Ibiza's KH use...)

Just drive at 5-6/10ths, and don't spin or go off track - Easy peasy... 8)

The hardest bit is coughing up £60 to your G.P. for their stamp on the medical section of the form... :shock:

any chance you could do me a favour and swing past my mums house ? She has been down in Bham for last month and I have not been over to check the place out. No worries if you cant.

Quite the reverse, I would think! Recall Jeremy Clarkson's reaction to BMW's proposal to remove their top speed limiter if you produced a Racing Licence - "Who are the maddest drivers you know?"....

On the ARDs itself, I second Ross's advice that it's a 'skoosh' as long as you keep it on the track - so - slow and tidy :)
