Newbie at Cadwell yesterday and thanks to all the organisers and participants for a great day.  It was a pleasure to meet so many friendly people and to be in such a well run event.

Getting an award for Group B was great and a total shock.  Couldn't stop grinning all the way home

Highlights - looks of suprise as people see Z3 in mirrors, getting the gooseneck right (probably only once all day if I'm honest), performance of Brembo discs and Pagid fast road pads - fade free all day and of course the model Z8 (pride of place in my office now).

Lowlights - 11.2 mpg (996 turbo injectors with the 6 psi supercharger) and waiting for Croft in July.  Now where did I put that form....

Boost baby, BOOST!

Hi John

Time is always precious and I'd have to be honest and say I only joined the club a few months ago.

Still got the bike for going really fast, but at least with the car Sylvia can enjoy td's too and her driving improved hugely across just 2 sessions.  Z impressed me, but I always knew it handled o.k., just the journo's that seems to have trouble driving around a cars dynamics (none of them karters obviously).

I also had to benchmark the Z against some fast cars to see if the supercharger really was doing the business - result there too!

See you at Croft then?

Guys.. you can't participate at Croft unless you book in and pay for the event!

.. and I don't have any bookings in the names of Safe or Bayliss

Send me an e mail click hereand I will send you the forms by return.. or send me a private message and I will divulge my telephone number..
whatever.. just do it before it gets sold out.
Nick
