Cheers mate, that's what i built it for!

Had some trouble in the Fastest Ford's session due to somebody who was just far too keen and didnt have the talent to match, wish peeps would listen more in briefings. Such is life tho.

Had a much better session with the Fiesta Club, opened it up more and started to use it to its potential, but my brakes failed me....only realised when my brake pedal was on the floor at about 120-130 , quick pump of the brakes, locked the rears, humourous spin and limp back.....boiled fluid, knackered master cylinder, brake pads smoking and bleed nipped cover had MELTED

Meh! Time for an upgrade and ill be back out abusing it again

Dan, i have to graft but i feel with every drive we are making steps forward with it. Either with developments or finding weaknesses. It is an interesting time.

As for the Focus RS i am saying nowt.....

But i know they told me to overtake on the left and on the striaghts, which is what i did....but an unnamed car did it on the right(not to mention a whole bunch of other very dodgy manouvers, in some silly desparation to "do me") and made a Puma swerve away from him, but unfortunatley that meant i had to dive on the grass at 100+ to avoid the Pete's Puma....not cool.

No damage, no tears.

My pleasure, just glad John and Linda made it to the show!
Thanks.
Yes, we were all pleased also.

Best show for a few years IMO.
Shame both my Fords never made it there, and had to rely on the old RS4.
Any pics would be appreciated, as I only had 6 minutes on track due to some unwanted focus/gravel action the session before .
Neil- Thanks for tickets mate.
