18 monts and its been used 4 times ,

2 track days , the daddy thrash in january and totb qualifying where it broke down ,

but thats the price u pay for a track car , impractical for day to day ( or even occasional road use ) but when u hit 5 solid cones in a row at 140mph u just laugh , get the gaffer tape out and get back on track .

Just took my son back and have to pass all the boy racers in the town on route. (well i don't really but it makes the Saxo/Corsa boys give me a good stare) ! PRICELESS. Pug 206 decided to give me a follow tonite tho. Could see him following but trying not looking like he was.You know what i mean don't ya. Waited till we hit the speed limit signs and kept it in 3rd. I waited till he tried to go past then booted the old girl ! Been home 10 mins now and the poor lad will probably still be trying to work out which way i went ! ! !

Less than 100 miles in 2 months!

And only when it's dry - and that's not often here in Glasgow!
