Mike Wilds (ex F1) drove my car round spa a couple of years ago. It was a masterclass in smooth driving, then i let him have a shot!!
Looks to me like the guys in the clip are just having a bit of a laugh.

Sorry Valentino Schumachar....you know best!

I've never claimed to be good on a bike, but i know what i'm doing in a car. And i still reckon he is better than your giving him credit for.

You know we work on a pre-negotiated crash-it-price ... it's the only fair way.
There isn't much to hit at Spa, though
See you all there!
Cheers,
Robin

Standard you bend you buy it rules apply. That's fair enough. I was talking about my bar bill.

I was thinking of going with Robin, but if there is enough interest, i would take my own car and make my pax seat available.
Halfers on the bar, hotel, tunnel, and beer, i'll put brakes, tyres and toe links on it.

(that's why I think Mike will do fine, that and his lack of imagination).

looked erratic, but i dont think anyone should be too hard on him until they've actually driven it.
Having said that, was half expecting to see a S1 and a 135r sithe past at some stage - that was an absolutely superb day out
