Had a cracking day despite the dodgy weather. Saw Tara and Hedge.   :happy2:

Managed to get a free track outing courtesy of Forge. But due to back log from sessions stoppages my one was doubled up with another sesh.

30+ cars out on track but the R went well! Over took lots of cars including a White TTRS....twice!  :signLOL:

Boy do i like the AP brakes. Should have fitted them ages ago!

Fitted a new aftermarket part to the car night before, hadnt been able to test, turns out the car didnt like it threw itself into 50% boost mode aka soft limp. Still enough oomph to leave the rocco behind in the twisties until I pulled over and you "overtook me" to see if I could get the car to reset by restarting it. 0.7 bar of boost was dreary!

Im surprised your car wasnt all over me like a rash tbh as it should have been considerably quicker than mine on the straights, must be down to the driver!  :P

 will have it sorted by ADI anyhow.

Ive got videos of our session aswell  :drinking:

Na, he started right behind me, then the gap just widened until I hit traffic and didnt have the boost to overtake convincly without raising eyebrows.  :signLOL:

I gave u a head start u see pov...... Cos you'd only hold me up otherwise on the out lap  :wink: :grin:

But really I never boot it on first lap. Always use it as a warm up.

I didn't say I was faster than u anyway..merely that I went by you...twice (but u did slow up on the first one)

2nd one was a bit more dodgy which my passenger didn't quite approve of  :signLOL:

But I enjoyed myself anyway and it was fun  :driver:
