Spotted: White wedge on A32 last night

[DustyC]

Cosmosblue griff (me) flashed and waved as we chased a silver elise (Cuzza) through the twisities.

Great drive only stopped by my rev counter breaking down (and nearly throwing up! ).

white wedge sounds like RichB - he lives in Botley and was having a catalogue of problems. Hope it is him and the car is sorted.

[DustyC]

It may have been more than just a standard Wedge. I dont know my wedges that well but this one looked more of the SE/SEAC variety.

ie, tasty!

Looked in good nick anyway - didn't look too hard as I was trying (unsucessfully) to remove the blue shape in my mirrors - until Dusty's limiter kicked in anyway

didnt you do your usual trick when you have a TVR behind you - slow down just on the approach to the twisties and then boot it and off. Git

Re: my limiter;
My dashboard nearly change colour on the A272, a nice shade of carrot!

Thats what you get for trying to keep up with an Elise on the twisty bits I guess!

Was me!!
Have been spotted for the first time in 5 years

I was in passenger seat, it was a friend driving, or my lights would have been flashing as well.

Was wondering if you and the elise were in convoy.

All problems now sorted. Storms along and handles beautifully, so much easier to drive than it used to be.

No need, there was no chim in front slowing me down - we manage the whole NSL part of the 272 with no traffic Dusty managed to give me a nice demo of the word grunt on the way back
