Was also really good to be in the thick of Josh and Billie's "battle", I did my best to stay with them, but in the end had to concede as my tyres overheated again - Cups next time for me, so I can mix it with the big boys .

Sorry for holding you all up, but hope you at least had fun watching me try to man-handle the car around the track on the jelly-moulds .

I was awarded a 9.5 for artistic merit by my passenger for the pirouette, so at least I got an award for something .

I think that whoever refurbed the wheels, stupidly painted the faces, as my nuts kept coming loose . I also killed the discs (which were on their last legs anyway), but apart from that the car was faultless .

Just think how bad it will get when you go REALLY FAST

Guys just joined up to say how much I enjoyed watching you lot drive round yesterday.Was standing along the pit wall- the sound of the 3 cars fly by was amazing! I was on the evening novice session in my 1M, and had a blast too. Stock pads and ps2's meant I just had to be careful, and some new upgraded pads will be ordered in the next couple of days. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't jealous of you lot- I come on here everyday to browse the classifieds.would love to add a CSL to the 1M. But my wife's not having it, but it's my 30th next year so fingers crossed

My first ever time on track with a CSL:




































































As you can see- MSS = no traction LOL.

As you can see, most of it is still on that corner LOL.

Not bad for your first effort but after seeing you loose it a couple of time i was say you should try to smooth things out and not drive it like your old Saff..

If you think the MPSS were no good think of what trouble it was having on PS2's....

I only spun it once (on cold tyres) and when I was behind you, I'd just joined the track, so again, over exuberance on cold tyres meant it went a bit more sideways than I was anticipating (resulting in much arm twirling LOL).

I usually try and be as smooth as possible (unless show-boating ).
