What an awesome day!

The clutter was faultless, we won all the trophies and the secret sighting laps bonus. Bad luck everyone else  :star:

Nice to see and meet everyone, especially big thanks to TC for letting me have a go of the Lotus - what a fricking machine, waaaay more capable than my balls were prepared to exploit.

Oh, and I have wind burn.
Sideways yo!

Anglesey is a top circuit, had a cracking day apart from the crawl all the way down the A55 going home.  My Exige can be handful to drive on the road, but on track it is so much fun and easy to understand. Had a little play with SteveyD when we were at the end of a 20 minute session so both our tyres had gone off, The car was sliding all over the place but it was still easy to control.  :party: 

Also had a detail last week to remove all the scratches and now it is home it looks like it needs another one, the car has been battered with chunks of tyres, black marks that wont come off  and the whole sill area has practically a tyres worth of rubber down both sides.  :chicken:

Good catching up with everyone as well.  Bring on the next one.   :driver:

Tar remover, and then remove what's left with a bug shifter (you know these thing with a mesh cloth over the top) and your normal soap.

Because race car.
Sideways yo!

Mesh cloth.  :chicken: :confused: :chicken:   I think the soap is for you to wash your mouth out.  :P

You could use a Brillo pad if that sounds like too much work?

Don't you dare turn into one of those people who cling films and blue masking tapes their car up. Chapman would be turning in his grave!
Sideways yo!

Dont be silly.  :fighting2:  The car was covered in scratches from the previous owners visits to Romanian car wash facilities, so it needed a polish. I bought this car for track hooning and thats what it gets. Still needs washing though. I am sure Mr Chapman wouldn't begrudge me the occasional hose down.  :wink:

True, dirt is weight!

Nah, whilst I don't get the whole detailing thing, I do like a nice presentable car. If mine gets a break from being in BMW, I'd like Nath to remove the swirls they keep piling up every time they wash it with the yardbrush. I just can't be bothered with that last 10% which seems to take over people's lives.
Sideways yo!

Finally a track day that working offshore didn't prevent me from attending!! what a day, great meeting everyone again, Anglsey was very kind to me and nothing major to report.  The Milltek R is mighty and simply couldn't be matched.  Finally got to see TC on track as mentioned :)

Although I have straight line speed, standard suspension and only R32 front brakes lets the car down slightly but it's still more than capable of scalping quite a lot.  Any further money will be spent on my R-TEK track project though :)
