Those black wheels on the Spec C are perfect. They make the car look hard as nails

Defo the black. Goes so much better with the rest of the car.
Makes the gold look a bit out of place.

None of the HOL-Mobile


That's what I get for having a plain old newage (should've bought a wagon!)

At least Baz got some of me.

..with the stupidly short ratios in my 5 speed I was in top most of the time

You must have used the lower gears too often

How much do you have to pay for these track days?

Can anyone attend them?

I checked my SECS monitor for peak values and it says I got 132mph at some point. Of course that could've been on the trip there ??? (NOT!)

I actually got 6th gear on most of my pit straight, changing up from 5th at 6K rpm, so a little early (lightweight ), but it is easy to straight-change down to 5th for the first bend.

I found 5th was best for all corners except Paddock Hill and coming round to the start, where I used 4th to help power out of the corners.

Thats with the JDM gearing though.
