Discuss knitting patterns probably!

I'll be interested to know!!

Apparently they are quite good! Not sure how "advanced" they are!!

Well it was actually quite good fun. Not overly impressed with the power delivery/output of the C2S though but a lovely car inside. We did some ABS assisted stops to demonstrate how well it did that (very well). Some highish speed (140/150mph) laps of the bowl and a few laps of the alpine circuit which would have been more fun if I could have done enough laps to start to remember more of the course.

Then he took me round the handling track with a bit of verve and that was *hugely* illimuninating. When the EVO guy took me round Bedford in my GT2 I was a bit too terrified of my car getting bent I think to be able really to concentrate on what he was doing, but the C2S not being all that quick acceleration wise and not being my car meant I could really begin to see the 911 cornering technique and I can't wait to get some more proper instruction. Their driver was pretty handy I reckon.

All in all a great evening out. Especially for free.

Sounds good. What do we have to do to get on the invite list?

[supermono]

I called OPC Cambridge about track instruction and they booked me in. Just an entry level play about really -- not a serious performance driving course by any means.

Next stage will cost I reckon.

Looks like a fun course, lol @ the evo guy!

If you guys are looking for track day instruction, give me a shout or have a look at my PH topic in the track day forum!
