Mike - I won't be out again this season and I've just tonight sold the VX. I'll definitely be back next year but at the moment, I don't know what I'll be in. :?:

That is a quick time for FB, well done! :thumbsup

It's a couple of years since I have driven it, but I thought it was a really great wee track. plenty of places to loose time. How did you like it?

Forrestburn is quite a tricky track, with it's ups, downs and blind crests etc.

Definitely a good challenge, but not in the same "close your eyes and hope it's OK" way that Doune is!

I was really quite chuffed to win the class - had been chasing Kev & Alistair's times all season.

There was me thinking it was a tie. :wink:

I'll see if I can get under 55secs at Doune in my Metro........
