Could i borrow someone to show me the lines?
I was at a sprint with the Type-R owners club a few years ago and Kenny knocked 9 seconds off my best time just sitting next to me

Thanks again Kenny

Airshow duties sadly, and having done two reverse now, I'd much prefer the standard direction if I am honest, reverse just doesn't flow IMHO after all these years, but you know what they say about aversion to change and all that!

Must admit that I feel the same as regards the flow, but that was not helped by the tyres, so will see how it goes with the AD08's.

Tut, I think it was pretty much just me, far too used to the normal flow, something about being left hand dominant I think meant reverse just didn't suit! Andy and a few of the more talented members seemed delighted with the change!

Im booked up for this in my new steed , was the reverse thing that attracted me hope its fun ,
Hope this is not a stupid question but do Knockers still allow open face helmets in an Elise?

I'll be happy to attempt to show you the lines.... might not manage to improve your lap times (not that we time laps at KH of course

) as much as Kenny.

I learned everything I know from McApe so there is a chance you might.
