superb day had by all @ Rally School Ireland on Sat.
started off with loads of sideways action in the MK11's. Added bonus was Niall McShea was my instructor :D. He then showed me how you're supposed to drive with a 2 lap demonstration :eek:....I watched his feet a bit while he was driving.....didn't touch the footbrake once!! Absolute madness, much respect.
next was the Scooby, prodrive prepared Gp N STI. Bloody difficult after the MK11! In fact I lapped half a sec. quicker in the Escort :confused:
finally the Audi....OMG! on my first run I couldn't believe how laggy it was...foot to the floor, lots of nothing going on....
turned out it was outta fuel!!! drank a litre in less than 1km.
amazing power, gorgeous sounds :D :D nearly impossible to get the handbrake turn though...just too much going on all at once ;)
highly recommended.
