.....well, for those that are interested!.....

My apologies, editing is new to me so this is way too long but you can always skim through.........the racers out there will give a wry smile at my efforts but then I've never claimed to be any sort of driver and being the first time I've taken this car on track I'm sure you can understand me being a tad precious with it!........it does sound great though and I had an absolute blast! :) ......

It sounds (as well as looks) great, but does it really rev to nearly 10k or is the tacho over-reading?

That looked like a lot of fun!

You need to think about relocating your gopro though. Lovely as it is to see you batting your eyelids in the rearview Darren, the mirror blocks the camera's view of what's up the road.
