Ha ha, yea smokes needed twice over lol. I was on tyres for the rain that never came so I didn\'t have the power to spin them in second on such a tight course coming out of the slow hairpins so had to stay in first gear.  But was alota fun all the same. And when I do go for second I get a really really bad grinding so iv a prob wih the gearbox or clutch :S

I should also say that it was a one day event where it was pushed more on the fun side. Didn\'t have to twin as there was no points for it. Consistency and control where the basic aim with angle, speed and fluency also takin in. Well from what I heard that was the criteria. 3 rounds of 3 laps and that was your runs over. Alota fun though on the wee track. But I\'m ready for the big track again and good old singing 3rd gear ;D
