I was in a red Evora - a 2010 NA, not the S. I got out the way plenty of times for people, just hope I didnae get in the way of anyone. Knockhill was a great circuit, even for a first time knoobie like me.
Cool, I used to have one exactly like that but I never took the chance to track it. A red evora passed me on the dueller just before i turned off for knockhill, might have been you, it looked awesome on the road, How did your tyres stand up on track?
The thing I found most challenging was watching for faster cars behind, without my doors on the 7, I'm left with a tiny vibrating rear view mirror, in which, 3/4 of the field of vision is obscured by my seemingly massive head. Even with the doors on , the wing mirrors are rubbish and only provide an odd blurry glance of the future victim of my accident
This usually meant, I'd bodge up the entry to the first corner after the straight and hold everyone up, I got a bit faster nearer the end and proved to myself I could handle all the corners beautifully...but I've yet to do a whole tidy lap. My tyres were ancient, (15 years old), they performed well but that's finished them.
