..so I'm holding on tight to the grab handle :)

It was quite a different circuit to the last one I did at Hullavington - a lot shorter and twistier. The massive hairpin they talk about was crazy, not quite 720 degrees (!) but maybe 270, with about 5 apexes and no way of seeing the next one as the grass is too high! Actually that was a bit of a problem as I almost hit a caterham that had spun on the inside of the corner, and luckily I saw him just as I was about to really commit! Close.

They do make it VERY tight in places though, I don't know if that is common but you really have to time everything just right.

The Noble M12 was up there again, and another friend brought his 1.6 civic which produces 160bhp! Fast in a straight line but a bit of a pipe 'n' slippers car.

Anyway, they seem to be good people at Motorsport events and seem very cheap compared to some others. It was only £79 for kemble with no extra for passengers, drivers etc.
I think it won't be til August before I do another, but if we could all meet up one time that would be cool. 318is vs 325is vs M3 ...hmmmmmm..... :)
