Edit: "when" Shimmy :O

Caged SUV's!!!!??

Here's me in my old stage 2 at DN9. A couple of notes: (i) I had only had the car 2 weeks and was taking it easy; (ii) my mate in front is in a stage 1 and described his lap as "steady"; (iii) the beeping noise is my speed detector telling me if I go over 85. I call out the speed on the straight and ultimate hit an indicated 179 (the speedo said 186 but I trust the speed detector). I didn't even get a good run at it and I backed off.

I suspect the new car will be a fair bit quicker still.

Think he was on his way home before you finished lap and you didn't look slow. Need to get transmission cooler and get to ring

So...where can I rent a GTR then? Or anything better than susuki swift, for less than a grand?
Or am I going to have to bring the f10 m5 and give the gtr boys a run for their money down the straights?

If you are hellbent on renting a car, I suggest you give Jaco at Jaco's Paddock a call. He is a good guy and fixed our previous E36 M3 race car when we broke the gearbox at the Ring. See http://www.jacos-paddock.co.uk/race-...gring-faq.html. I am not sure what he will charge for a day, but I reckon he'll give you a good E36 at a reasonable price and it will be a lot more fun than a Suzuki Swift. Tell him Gregor sent you.
