Rumour is that Kev left the UK and races in Nascar now, such a great loss to British motorsport (and M3 cutting forums)

From what i heard you have more Cups in stock than Michelin!!, another rumour is that you idle the winter nights away burning em out to keep the garage warm

Someone better stop starting all these rumours

brilliant lap but brutal on the kerbs.....really winced at poor cesil

hoping to pop my cherry @ the ring and salzburg

do track newbies get a dayglo bib to wear to warn other serious trackday chaps that the track has been invaded by cars that will exceed the 107% rule!!
i apologise now for any future PB's i ruin!!!

Open Track do offer black cross on yellow background sticker, some thing for every one to aim for

Kerbs are all part of the track rules for a good line

Curbs at Donny are fairly flat except the chicane although the way the touring cars hit even those ones you'd think they weren't there!

+1


Do not go on the ring, thinking the kerbs are the same height as uk track kerbs

There are a few that are 'accepted' to take, but still they are not tiny.

I popped a damper jumping off one at pflanzgarten once
