Max,

I'm sure you could have taken me a few times, and we would have had a lovely battle as I would take you back again. I was surprised that our cars were very well matched, as mines a standard RB5 Lol

Will the lovely Sam be coming down town with you ?

Cheers Phill C

PS you weren't doing the EVO thing behind me mate, so no worries. I still thought you were much quicker with SteveB in the car. I know I was, so you must have been

Ian No problems for the loan of the STi backbox and centre.. If you want to keep it let me know... Thanks for the laps round the track and for getting me hooked to tracks days.. (Think its a good thing). When were you back to the office??? Was it next week!!

Phill Thanks for the lift as well.. was nice to see some sideways action in car... but from what I gather not as good as Ian's.. PS sort them gages out as the beeping was doing my head in..

"Ah HELLO" for all the flames I saw out of your car as I was behind you..

Simon / Ian When the video is done please let me have a copy..

Steve thanks for the tips around the track..!!!

Think I need a visit to tilies as my breaks are well spongy at the mo, just hope its not new disks .. I hope iv just boiled the oil too much.. other than that the car seems to have surivived a track day..

Pookie/Sam,

Are there caves "in" Exmoor ?

Bit of a difference in "on" and "in" ???!!

Sorry, just me being pedantic!! not sure what it means fully, but it did sound good, yeh??

Nice to see you guys (and Gal) yesterday, had some good rides. Rob, mate, only trying to help?? you're driving (smoothness)did improve a lot I thought.(thanks Ian, good driving mate)

Looking forward to getting Into/onto/in/on/etc Exmoor.

No problems mate..The tips were very good... Its just a shame that the breaks were very spongy almost from the start.. Think that was not helping my confindence.. Also No offence but I find it difficult to give it some with some one new in the car.. Dont know why... I know you have one as well but its just a querk of me i guess. Ask sam. I was giving it alot more with here in the car than with you... But it was good to see where i was going wrong and seeing what I needed to do to improve speed.

I need to go to tilies to get them to re-do the oil. As they are still not right now!!
