Nah, it was a guy called Mark. but it was Rob Packs flying banana i think! I was going to race but changed my mind after a few runs, decided i liked it too much to risk smashing and have tried to restore it on a shoestring budget.

Spent a fair amount of time chatting to Rob when I used to race against him on xbox lol.

I am considering doing a bit of hillclimbing in one of the production classes this year and possibly a sprint or 2 but I dont want to mod it for racing, just have a bit of fun whilst keeping it as it is. Apart from the brakes, I definitely want to modify them, they arent brilliant on track, I nearly set the buggers on fire due to a combo of enthusiasm, not knowing the track and their general rubbishness at track speeds (had to brake from 85-90 ish down to <30 for a chicane)

Lol. i had a similar experience except not on track. went for ebc green stuff, drilled and grooved discs.
Am looking at climbs and trials too, but keep putting it off. oh and the kids keep wanting daddy at the weekends.

I am going to save up for some uprated calipers,disks and pads so it will probably be next year before I can get them, I might fit some better pads as a temp fix in the meantime.
