Yes the drive down the m1 was interesting indeed, don't think I've ever done Leicester to Northampton so quickly, I saw 1.20mph at one point.

so you filled him with confidane when you said there wasnt any
I cruised along on the M1 as I didnt stop for fuel but never saw you. You must have leap frogged me when I stopped at mimms for a drink

i told rob after we got out for the first session, that there was a few times i didnt think we where going to stop
100+ to 20mph for the hairpin wasnt nice to my brakes
