| If we'd have been able to run more than twice yesterday I'd have run it myself but rain stopped play.
That said, I know my limits both on the track and strip. I haven't spent money making me a better driver, I've spent money making my car go faster and handle better, that's why I gave it to Paul to set a time at the Pod and thats why I gave it to Evo Magazine to set a time at Bedford, which would have been great if the performance box worked, but Evo will drive it there again so it will be interesting to see what it runs.
In time I'll give it to a pro racing driver to set a time at Castle Combe... then and only then will I go after Rolands time as I'll have max corner speeds to aim for and the perfect lines. In fact I'm off to CC tomorrow for some research. Once I'm happy with the car, I'll then start spending money on making me a better driver so I can actually get the most out of my car. The last thing I want to do is to spank my car at CC, if I beat Rolands time then 'happy days', if I don't then I won't lose sleep about it, it's a bit of fun at the end of the day. |
