I was there today, had Cecil but was driving an E36 race / track car instead. A lot of fun. Great day and the standard of driving was good. Only one very brief stoppage for a breakdown.

Saw a few CSLs there but was hosting clients so didn't get a chance to say hi sadly.

well if you are on slicks again you should be at least equal to your best CSL time at Donny.

Simons is roughly the same as my one - Mine is 1400kg ready to go, with a full tank. Cross weights within 0.2% on Spires Nitrons. For reference Pookys Csl weighed 1440 with a full tank on the spires scales. Power is standard, diff is carbonetics but ratio standard.

hmmm on slicks at about same weight as light csl, with decent diff........1m15.5 -1m16.5 (allowing 2.5 secs for diff/slicks) would be fast

If I was running 1m15.5-1m16.5s I would be doing the Kuhmo cup or a similar series not fannying around at trackdays!!

The Kuhmo cup lap record is a 1m15.870, I appreciate that they aren't on slicks but they are race cars with no carpets!!

Oh forgot to mention it's not just the car, it also probably has something to do with my lack of talent......
