:thumbsup

Looks like your getting smoother all the time. Also looks much more fun than Fintray.

I have to confess Clarky when i read you were entering a 320, i didn't think it would be very competitive. You've certainly proved me wrong, we'll done and thanks for not making me the only one in the "Flat out with no clue club".

To b honest, i never thought that my 1300 kg 1.8 bmw would have ever been as competetive as it has been, cant beleive that im actually leading the championship in a2, smashing the newcomers championship and now setting a class record, which was previously held by a judd engined rover 200!!!

Couldnt be any happier to be honest, just need to keep it up for 1 more weekend and thats it over for the year!!

And yes, i have an se sticker on my drivers mirror cap :-)

Cheers gav, i actually feel like im getting smoother too! Forrest burn is awesome, 17 turns which is pretty cool and 14 more than fintray!!!

That looks like a good clean run, with good lines - not easy to manage on a busy track like that. It is a while since I have driven that hill; the old Team Scottish Elises 325i was a hoot. :lol:
