Nice one Jim.
Obviously you were not included in that comment as you would be driving your Ferrari as you would an Elise.

That was meant to read Jim, that if you were out with us with the Fezza, it would probably be at a different pace than with the FOC.

By a weird coincidence I stubled across this video which I believe is the very same car ( odometer on the dash is the give away + the lowered head lamps). Look the the previous owner was pretty handy at the wheelbattle short wrote:Cal it was nice to speak to your dad, the dirty car after his slight off at clarks drew us to him, turns out he lives around the corner and we recognised the car from blanefield. The previous owner was out with us last year on a few runs. andy ps wife now only lets me drive scooby at weekend it was the same with my05 STI

Cal, it still has the cat
with just the Lotus sports exhaust.
It pops and bangs and spits fire! I've been told by many, its the best sounding Exige ever
BTW, I've never been a member fo FOC or the LCUK. Not sure if I ever will.....

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Absolutely fantastic day, best track day that I have been to yet.
Organisation and driving standards were excellent, dry weather (bloody baltic!) and a good selection of cars on the track.
Managed 117 laps between Scott and myself
Good going considering a replacement engine was installed last week till we get the SC back!
Car was going well, fastest lap of 1.01.97 on 2nd session
Videos now on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTvsDvjSm50 more to follow!

Guys,
Some random pics here http://www.flickr.com/photos/pete_pedro/ high-res pics can be downloaded, and I have pics of almost all the cars, (not all uploaded tho), if you are after a particular car, let me know and I'll send the pic onto you.
I am hoping to get along to a few trackdays again this year, but just the shorter days, (2hrs), as I cannot get that long on the track with the old Elise, and to keep costs down. If anyone can recommend any good days, please let me know.
Cheers,
Pedro
