Default Did a 1.52 round Donington

Second ever trackday at Donington on the short track i would class the track as moist and wet in places did a lap in 1.52 ish, so quite happy with that. No grip at all getting instant wheelspin in 3rd gear but great fun, the marshall counted 15 red light incidents with a few cars getting damaged.
New spax suspension was spot on giving good feel but got through £35 in fuel.
Roll on the next one
