Yes great to meet a few RMSers today.
Sadly my track day was a bit of a disaster but also I got very very lucky - a brake pipe behind a underbody tray corroded through at the clip and I lost all brakes while sitting in the pit lane. Literally two minutes later and I would have been doing 100mph round the circuit! Davy from East Engineering brought the car around to his garage and installed two new brakes lines so at least I could drive home. Not very impressed with the mechanic who serviced the car last week - I told him I wanted the brakes checked over and he obviously didn't take off the under trays to look at the lines. But he specifically told me on the phone my window wipers were in good condition!!
And thanks to Gary (can't find your user name!) for the passenger run in his FN2 in the last session. Lapping 1.13 with the two of us in the car and having to slow off for the oil spill was good going!
