As above.

Newfound respect for the Cerbera tonight. The thing is brutally, sensationally quick. I stretched her legs this evening in a way I haven't done before and I can safely say that its the first time I've been frightened by the potential of the car. And even more scary is that the car still has further to give in the right hands. I thought I'd bought the Cerbera as my plaything - it turns out the Cerbera chose me as its.

Rob,

Swinging, big and hairy.

The stability nanny care drivers just don't have this responsibility for their driving input. It may have been a brown trousers moment but it was you who was driving and you who brought it home.

Get her on the track then you can see what see can really do you are only scratching the surface on the roads. The level of Grip from these cars is massive and really opened my eyes up.

And again Sunday night as a passanger on a dry road. That was my first experiance of the Cerbs back end stepping out and gave me a new respect for her.

I took mine in for a MoT at the local, friendly garage. I suggested to the chap to feel free to take it on a road test if he think it needs it... wink I got to the garage just as he was getting back & all he could say was "That thing is a fking animal!!!". hehe

Anyway, I've just been out in mine and all I can say is that the roads are a little greasy in my area after the rain... whistle

I have to admit I had caught it and we were travelling in a straight line along the road again before my brain had even had time to process what had just happened. I've been travelling everywhere slowly since, funny how the faster the car I own, the slower I drive it.

Seat of the pants corrections are pretty much where you want to be, if your passenger notices too much you're probably on the way to the scenery.................
