Nice one Chris. You could have brought it to Snetterton the other day.

You going to use that for sprinting (joke) or still got the Radical?

I only picked it up on Thursday so no snetterton for me.

I will come to helmingham I live 10minutes away so reserve a place for me on the club stand.

Still have radical and truck but that's being prepped for sale as need the cash. I'm in deep really deep so need to reduce the garage collection. Probably keeping the bike (ninja h2) Not sure what to use for sprinting but it won't be this. The venues are not suited for this car and the brakes are shocking until some heat into them although they don't look bedded in so I'll see. I'll probably finish the season in a diesel BMW now although I might take the fezza to blyton, although noise is another issue. It's really loud which is surprising for a track variant.

I much prefer the look of the speciale with the stripe, very nice. Last time I saw one was at the supercar event at the top gear track. I was in a la Ferrari (as a passenger) and the driver thought it was best to let go the speciale that was up his back bumper- awesome!

I can believe that. It's really focused especially when the manetino is turned into angry mode. Not a lot would keep up on track. My old gtr pulled harder but the lightweight and handling etc is a far superior package. It actually changed direction similar to my radical which is insane ! Brakes currently an issue though. Previous owner only drove from South Ken to Mayfair each day so the brakes have never been bedded in properly. That will be fixed tonight though somewhere on the A14 when the roads are clear. Just lots of 70ish to 20 hard braking as per the handbook.

If you don't want to use the Bimmer I am sure we could sort something more suitable
