Well lads been a long time from I posted a thread on here. Who was at todays trackskills at Kirkistown? Good to be back behind the wheel.
I went Facebook live but the I phone mount isn’t great to be honest.

skip to around 8 minutes of the video. I must do a thread on the lotus some time. Great handling thing and quicker on the track than my supercharged atom I had previously

Thanks to @thorneracing for this proper video







The Lotus is eager to go Tony!! That car should do well in sprints where you wont have all the traffic

Uploaded a video from the M3 yesterday with you blazing past us on the 2nd lap, some weather for it and plenty of traffic but got a few clear laps near the end and managed to scrape into 64's. For a full weight E92 it impresses me very time, with a shorter diff ratio and a bit of weight out it would really help but I have had my fun with it

Was a great day out I really enjoyed it. Everyone had plenty of fun, no dramas and weather was perfect. The M3 really impressed me too, for such a big car it's so composed on the track even in the tighter sections. Very well setup @StephenDc2 that's for sure, was great craic. Some really nice stuff out yesterday too, that Exige is phenomenal.

Good to get you out a spin Shannon, makes you appreciate what a proper M car feels like with minor mods

Definitely, didn't see any bad driving all day and the Trackskills team stay on top of everyone. Its easy to get carried away when you have someone to chase but just need to keep remembering its only a trackday

matey, your E92 just seems so well sorted, like you say small changes in weight. cant wait to go in the october one, hopefully its dry then also.

Those videos are a great watch - I miss the trackdays, albeit I have only done the two, but it wouldn't take much to start looking about for a project to start on after watching those videos :laughing:

Likewise Arnold, always enjoy chasing your Yellow M3 around there... Your a fast predictable driver and brings me back to the days when I had a 2L in the DC2

Anyone know of there is any availability left for 11th Oct? I'm thinking of bringing the Boxster out for a run if I can get a service squeezed in this week. @V8
