...with Chris's GT3R.
Contrary to the weather forecast, we had a completely dry, mostly sunny day apart from a few moments of fine drizzle late morning that evaporated the instant it landed on the tarmac.
The GTR worked faultlessly all day until it began to trip the noise meter late in the afternoon. We think the car got noisier as the heat in it built up and Chris started peddling it faster. So it's going to get a couple of additional silencers in time for its next outing.
Chris is beginning to get to grips (lol) with slicks. There's still a bit to go yet, but by the early afternoon the only car going quicker (and there was some serious kit there yesterday) was a Ferrari 430 "Scud" race car from the Ferrari Open Chempionship, driven by Nigel Greensall!
Michael "The Verge" Vergers (Radical SR8 Nurburgring record holder) who was coaching someone in an Exige said to me "Tim that car's too fast, you need to get a slower car!" after Chris had overtaken him!
A brilliant day, Chris! [
