The Eagle F1 was very slidy in the dry.

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.

Yes, I caught it but lost a lot of momentum as the angle got too wide.

Don't think the car behind was drifting......

Another great SIDC day. It was absolutely baltic, at least it did not rain.

Sorry to all those i could not take out for pax laps. Normal service will resume next time. I had an instructor along with me for the session. Barbra Armstrong, she drove rally cars for Seat in the brittish championships, was a works driver for Porche UK in the GT3 cup and was an instructor at various circuits in the UK. It was good to get some instruction in a circuit i know well and to improve my lines. We also worked a lot on technique which also improved during the day. It was pretty hard work keeping the concentraion levels up. As even slightly missing a turn in, apex or exit would result in a slap or some abuse from Barbra! I did find her no take no prisoners approach to coaching amusing. It certainly keeps you on your toes. Im sure she would tone it down for the more sensitive types.
