...and would you spare me an hour or two of your time (as observer/passenger) in exchange for some beer/wine/similar (I draw the line at cider! wink )?

Short version: Seriously considering IAM, but following the BGOL thread in the AD forum here I don't want to commit before the Summer...but I WOULD like to get some pointers (observation and positioning mainly) before I take the NSX on a couple of road-trips.

Thanks very much,

Martin.

Thanks Paul.

What to look for? Anything that I do/don't do that might get me into trouble on the roads, hence why I'm thinking observation and positioning are probably high on the list. Will have to sort something out one weekend.


BTW...there's a thread in GG from yesterday morning which I'm sincerely hoping doesn't relate to your new toy! I'm assuming everything's still OK?!?

yikes Poor car weeping

Nope, not us, as the Fezza was sold on Friday - Paul made an enquiry at the dealer we bought it from and they bit his hand off!

So now we have another new toy... SL63 AMG bounce

Which means no more fights over who gets to drive the BMW when the weather is nice woohoo

Thanks for asking Martin

I heard about this today from the polish car wash chaps in Balsall Common. They said "it was on fire veddy gud boss"

As Ali said Fergie has gone and been replaced with Flo the SL63 AMG.

As for arranging this training thing PM me on here and I will pm you back my contact details.

Cheers Nathan...will take you up on that.

Your work and home commitments are probably greater than mine, so will work around what you can do (as long as it's outside of 8-6 Mon-Fri). Pretty-much anytime over the next 4-5 weeks would be cool...

Thanks,

M.
