Nice one Andy, DP2 should now be another epic. :)
I think you might have the edge in 2-11 vs Atom battles... :D

Are you towing to 'Ring/Spa? Thinking about tyres...

Hey Ali

I've had enough of towing full stop.

Dont see myself doing it again for any of the EU trips.

If the weather for DP2 looks sh*t, I'll grab the key for the Gt3 :mrgreen:

I think straight line you'll be stuffed, but the Atom doesnt corner as well, so it will make for some fun & games :thumbsup

Ps - DP2 accom - you done anything yet?

pps - my traction control also isnt as reliable :damnfunny

Tut, Sanjoy, it is indeed Jamie's old car. With a new engine, suspension, brakes and exhaust.

It feels amazing on the road. Can't wait to get it on track.

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.
