Wish I'd bought one sooner tbh, the handling blows the Mazda out the water, doesn't even feel RWD now I've learnt to be smoother with it

The Mazda was getting just under 9 minutes, I'm getting regular 8:30 in this so it's nice to be able to push it with consistent laps, not once have I felt I've pushed the car a bit far whereas most laps with the Mazda it felt lucky to make it to Gantry lol.

I make the Mazda sound like an awful car but it wasn't, for it's size/FWD it was a very fun car, but it's no track car

Half on, with it on it's stupidly sensitive, I normally drive with it off but not on the Ring it only cut in a couple of times and that was shifting 2nd to 3rd once & exiting the Karoussel upsets it. I've found after my Brands sideways moment if you're smooth enough it should never cut in anyway!

Unfortunately it's shut now until we leave on Friday :-( always been open all week after Easter but not this year, hopefully get on the GP circuit tonight

Although this happened on my last lap yesterday before the halfway point:

Looks great. Goes very well. Good to see one driven hard and around a track and a bonus this one is alive unlike the MPS. Very jealous, still tempted by one

Seriously, Graham either smashed a mirror or ran over a black cat.
