was that a civic that passed you near the end of the last two laps? Looks like you had a bit of trouble gaining up to him. What motor are you runnning 16V or 20V?
The one that passed us at 4:00 was a 306 GTi-6, the only thing on the day that was quicker than us over a lap. 16v 1600cc! - 122bhp, compared to the Pug's 170bhp.
That SW20 just shows how poor they can be... I wonder if the owner of the RED MK2 MR2 in Grimsby who binned it on the Bush Tyres roundabout (A180) on Boxing day 2007 is here, I was in the white MK1 who had no such problems negotiating the wet roundabout!
Good drive - looked a bit wet that day, but didn't seem to slow you down much! Doing a trackday at Cadwell tomorrow (first time) - useful vid seeing the lines etc. Nice one!
Ha, I did happen to catch one of your spins actually, all be it on a still camera. I got a few pics of your car, if you're interested in seeing them give me an addy to send them to!
I know I know. Unfortunately, the tape on the vid ran out about 1 lap before which really annoyed me. I would have a made a seperate video for it if I had it! Nope not too serious thanks, just needs a new wing. Just as well as had a 4 hour journey home in it :)
What a beautiful track... Wow...

What a great track!
We really have nothing in Australia.lol
OK, Bathurst is great and Pillip Island but we have nothing like this tasty little morsal!
Well l pick up my SW20 next week and will have to settle for the 2km goat tracks which we have here in Australia.
Best of Luck

Glad to hear it was minimal damage on your car that day.

talking of owning up - how come there's no footage of the mk1 MR2 going off and getting stuck at the hairpin? :whistle (presume it wasn't serious)
;o)

Thanks for being brave and owning up! I hope you had a good day, despite the slight off. Shame about the weather.

Nice video and driving, I must admit that the white 106 rallye on the grass at 5.30 was me!
