Did you enjoy driving knockhill, it can be a tricky track to learn in a short space of time like you had so your times are very good. It was a shame Charlie didnt enter Andy's old car since it would have beat the evo.

i absolutely loved it!! it is a wicked circuit and if it wasn't so far away i'd love to drive it more often, i know what you mean it is very tricky to get right, i was having loads of trouble with the right hander at the bottom of the hill before it goes back up hill to the chicane with understeer.

also my rear coil overs had exploded and lost all of their fluid as you can see from this pic
