So, who's going to take me for a ride then?

[Mrs Fish]

Fantastic

I'll think of this day as a belated 30th birthday present

[Fish]

You do realise you've got my car to drive.

You can lose your 150mph cherry.

Thanks MOD. Hmmmmn. Roof off ought to clear the head a bit...but you'd have to promise not to barf the footwell. Seriously - the track is no place to be with a hangover... Thanks, promise not to hurl in your porker Martyn, if you ask my missus nicely she'll give you a spin in her Boxster, and shes way quicker than Don

Thanks alot. Don't want to get involved in any Porsche driver skill war though

Should be good, looking forward to it So, who's going to take me for a ride then?

Usually lots of passenger rides being given. If history is anything to go by some of our cars will be doing a tank of gas in both the morning and the afternoon sessions.

I can offer a ride in the slowest car of the day by about 200bhp

Might go round the corners alright though...

With only 60L fuel tanks the needle tends to go round quick at 12mpg or so!

all the best

Now, you're just showing off!

[adamt]

In the M5 we hit 9mpg at brands, but the RUF is more economical, i think it is 12mpg when really going...

Tony this time i have to get a passenger ride in your lambo

trackdemon said: derestrictor said: Stunning! This is one car I would love to have a drive in. As an article once read, "if it's good enough for Ayrton Senna..." Der, I'll swap 5 mins in the teutonic turbo nutter for the finest of Jap sophistication. I'll bet mine sounds better too Now then, you really are tempting an involuntary release of unmentionable juices... Get yourself to Bruntingthorpe on October 12th (e-mail Craig W for details) and that might be more than an acceptable little trade... No really, I've always had immense respect for the NSX concept and design (remember the old Top Gear episode where Tuff Noodles thrapped one around [I think] Oulton Park years ago?) and as I've read more waxed lyricism o'er the years, that's morphed quite profoundly into a rather groovy kind of Fanbleedingtastic, to coin a Clarksonism. PLEASE try and bring it along...

Well, this time it WILL be there, will you?

Thanks mate I'll take you up on that.

Also an AVI with most pics set to music, for a laugh. That in itself is around 60 meg.

So is it being brought along to show everyone who's boss then Adam?

Bring your mum to drive it...I'm sure a lot of the blokes would love to get beaten by a lady....

Adam and his father are graciosuly attending to put Lord Bolton totally over the edge, so that he rushes off to Germany to buy one of those lightweight 750bhp Ringmonster 911 specials.

Adam, you can f@ck right orf if you think I'm going anywhere near that dang RUF creation: for God's sake, I was budgeting a modest increase to circa 550 stallione and you come poncing along with 562 bhp?

Well it just won't do, d'you hear!

Guess I'm just gowna be Hindley's b1tch from now on...

"...yes, hi Phil, you know that 550 bhp mod I've been boring you with for the last 18 months? I think we need to hit 600 'cos there's this young chap wot's got a RUF and with those narrow hipped aerodynamics he can do 215 at Brunters and..."

Yes, thanks very much Adam, spiffing.
