David Hayton Lotus Autotest, Sat 6 Feb, Carlisle

Post by Bobby » Thu Feb 04, 2016 9:43 pm

Carlisle dealership is organising some hooning round Carlise airport as a wee autotest bit of fun this Sat. I believe they've had some cancellations, so might be a few spaces. Call Iain at David Hayton Lotus to enquire.

Looks like fun! How was the surface?...looks like it might have been it a bit rough in places?

Definitely the surface to blame, not the driver. Ahem.
