Nooo no no no BRING ON THE RAIN
the weather couldnt have been more perfect if id prayed for it, got loads of practice and learnt so so very much in dry in the morning and the rain in the afternoon, and i had so much more fun while it was wet, i just couldnt get that back end out while it was dry, but i did loose it quiet badly at the very end of the day coming out of the 2nd chicane on the way back down and hit a big sand sack of tires sideways at about 60mph, bit gladly on minor dent damage should puch right out
WHAT A PERFECT DAY FOR MY FIRST TIME EVER ON A TRACK !!!!
I JUST CANT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I ENJOYED MY SELF, AND HOW FANTASTIC THE DAY WAS AS IT WAS MORE THAN A DREAM COME TRUE, iv always wanted to get into racing and tried my whole life and dreamd of it and i have tried but never actually got any where, for once in my life i feel im on the starting block and will progress somewhere

for an estate i couldnt believe how well it handled but is was a performance car and how much grip it had on road tyres was unreal, at least i think they were road tyres lol usually estates the back end is traling around behind you like a piece of rope ! ready to flail off infront at the first corner, but not this one oh no, it took some going to get that back end kicking out, i found it alot easier with out gary in the car suddenly janking on the hand brake randomly half way thro the corner not expecting it seriously didnt help gaz lol
but fun tho

It was fun watching you progress as the day went on. In the dry I was all over you in my DIESEL but when it turned wet you were easily quicker, apart from your over-exuberance spinning you off all the time Ultimately Simon and I wondered where you'd gone, and then we stumbled upon you side on with a tire bail looking worse for wear nearby

Kee p off the handbrake, that's for novices, idiots, and Vicky Broadbeam-Harvester.

lol i wouldnt have said worse for wear, was just rather concerned about the damage from hitting the bag as it made an ALMIGHTY thud and i felt it, but was very relieved when sure the damage how little it was thankfully, ill honestly put my hands up n say yes i was trying use hand brake but only on the first large hairpin "why not, only safe place try it, i deffo aint gonna try it on public roads !!" and it was hard getting that back end out it was just glued behind ya but that spectacular spin i did into the bag wasnt cuz if tryin hand brake at all just needed put foot down there get it out every so slightly for a perfect long slide but cuz i was trying to counter-act the larger time delay of power from the automat gear box and hitting the power earlier as coming out of that second chicane,which i had exacuted perfectly many many time before throught the earlier day but that time the power came on before hit that change in surface n had a slide on beofre i hit it, so once the surface changed it just went and there was no going back. the most damage done was just pide tho lol
im just trying desperately find a job now to fuel this habbit and addiction, and a manual scooby, lucky theres a great place near me to get one, just need £2.500
will be really looking forward to the next time, just hope i can get a car and money by then
