A good day out, really nice to see some good friends again.
It was very much a learning day for me as have hardly driven the Exige hard anywhere and it was my first track day in it.
Started in the damp and all felt ok, played with tyres pressures a bit and it goes great, handles well and brakes well for an un modified car. Worryingly loud though, as got 101 db on the static!
At this time I cant pedal it as well as my vx. Bumped into steve I am a couple of times and where we previously would have had a good scrap, I had to let him go as he was flying and, even more concerning, had trouble getting past well driven Exige S2's (something that was never a problem in the vx).
I know I need to get braver in it as am well off its limits and in particular find a way of better gear changes (the thing simply will not blip going down gears) but I planned this not being as hard core as my vx and its a great thing to drive on the road as it sounds great and is amazingly comfy. It really is like a GT version of an Elise/vx.
All the vx's were flying as always and looking forward to my next one.
Martin S (I'm afraid always a vx'er no matter what I'm in)
