Yeah I like that too.

I'd love to see an E Type in Gulf colours.

Now you need to get that A30 going for Goodwood.

That’s got to be the easiest 15 mph boost ever, and carbon neutral too!

Darren,

Your car now looks abit like this one. Fairly badly damaged a couple of weeks ago at Mallory.

Bit of a coincidence?

I was worried for a while!

Hope he is OK.

That was one of my least favourite corners. They didn't call it the Devil's Elbow for nothing. It looks flatter now but it was a horrible very off-camber sweeper, downhill into a pile of pit-related ironmongery if you got it wrong. The preceding chicane wasn't there then, so you took it faster, but it was the only significant lefthander on the circuit so that side of the front tyre was always colder. Don't think I ever took it at 10/10ths; too much to lose.
