Ha ha ha, I've just realised I've posted in the wrong thread. I was answering this one http://pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.

Sorry!

Great thread, really interesting read.

Thanks to this post I am now going to book a day at North Wield. Really need to get to grips with my car in a safe environment, with someone who can give me some pointers.

Ah Curborough...

Talking of which, I discovered a GREAT way to get the tail out while driving there (or should that be a way to get the tail out a great amount...). In a fwd car too!!!

It's simple...you just change down into the 'tail' of Curborough a little too late, as you're turning-in, and let the left-rear kiss the wet grass. You can get the tail RIGHT out if you do that!


(I got a round of applause though - went from about 40-deg one way to 40+ the other way to absolutely side-on to the track, stopped half-way down the 'tail'. Not sure how I kept it on-tarmac, think that was what the applause was for!)


Hehehe, I got a bit out of shape at curborough a couple of years ago and ended up actually driving over the molehill! Only damage was that it removed the no plate on my caterham!
