It was a top day and the organisation was like clockwork. Agreed with Andrew though - Seloc days are as good, and MUCH cheaper - and passengers are free; RMA want £25 - a p*ss take if you ask me. I'm booked on the 30th August too.
I managed to back off the pedal and tip toe around the outside of the bend, but the ABS helped keep it straight for the first second or so, while I reacted to what was happening... very slowly Foxy was in the car, and didn't see the oil... must have thought my driving was awfulÂÂ
On the contrary Gary - I did think you out braked youself though - and held it together with absolutely no drama It wasn't 'til the next lap that I realised there was oil on the track - it was like a river of the stuff! I've gotta learn that heel'n'toe stuff, but you make it look so easy
Scared stiff were there with their S1 Exige - it was FAST - and was almost totally flat round the corners. There was no way I could stay with him

When I hit the oil that was conveniently dumped at the initial braking point off the second longest straight I honestly thought I had ripped the tyre off the rim with the violent lunge to the left and no braking ability. I did the same tippy toes round the outside with handfuls of opposite lock and of course managed to honk a couple of times - the funny thing is that the red Tamora was spun in the middle of the track and judging from some of his hand gestures I guess he thought I was honking at him My, at the time, female passenger thought I was just clowning around and didn't realise we had almost all died...
Sorry Mags, Julie didn't manage any decent pic's of you. See exhibit 1:

GaryMy car wasn't behaving very well in the morning. Missing and hesitating under full power on the main straight, and eventually losing power completely for a second. I backed off for a lap and it was fine again, so it looks like another AMM has gone.
I had this at Brunters for one session only, I think if you hit the rev limit too often the ECU, shuts things down for a moment, or it could temporary fuel starvation. It ran okay the rest of the day and I have done 1000 miles since and had a service AMM is fine.
