Well done Simon on what I am sure is your first visit to Lydden 8-) FTD by 1.78 secs against boys in the next class up!

I managed a second in class to Stephen Laing who beat me by 0.21 secs and 12th overall so cannot complain. Perhaps I should point out that I was also second to last in the class :oops:

Don't knock it David , Stephen's no slouch and beaten by 0.21sec isn't a lot . Simon's absolutely on it now , properly fired up for next season's Goodwood sprints and a crack at Ian Catt's new Empire chassied beast , maybe Bill Johnson in the OMS 1400 :P
Well done David , it was wet too -- wasn't it :?:

Yup wet all day Rob but not torrential. Lots of interruptions as people slid/pirouetted off the circuit. I must say I don't usually like the wet but the car didn't feel too bad. Surprising really as it was on 4 or 5 year old tyres!

Thank you David for the comments, and yes Rob ready for Goodwood. This was my FTD run @ 83.91. You will see all off line and slippy but the car had some great grip when needed.
