Very interesting!

I had great fun on the airfield activity day.

I got 2nd place overall on the sprint track final course, behind a sprint prepared Lotus Elise, with semi slick tires, driven by a sprint guy who had done the track loads before. I only had 3 runs before the day ended, (and on one of those I went the wrong way! Whoops!)

I beat a TVR Tuscan, a variety of other Lotus Elises etc, a Porsche 911, a Nissan 350z and 300ZX, and other things I cant remember.

Anyway. Great fun and car went brilliant. Other RX8s on the day got left behind!
My car is now exactly how I always wanted it to be!
