Just got back from OcUK Track Evening

[moss]

it must have been soo hard trying not to totally thrash it, bet you cant wait till its properly ran in

 

[Gibbo]

Yup just got back myself and I can say that my outing in the OcUK Radical is one of my best life experiences yet when it comes to cars and technology, thanks Mark.

The cornering speed of the Radical is absolutely awsome, it made the Westfields look like they were standing still on the bends. I also think the Radical was also the fastest straight line speed car there too as we had no problems flying past the TVR's and remember the Radical was just been run in. Back to the cornering speed anyway, just awsome, at first I could not believe how quick we were going round corners and neither did the other drivers on the track.

All it needs now is a good wash with Meguiars Gold Class Car shampoo and waxing with Meguiars Gold Class Paste Wax
and this baby will be like a mirror-like shine on its next track day.

I hope your passing that car and not the other way round

 

[Slackworth]

Of Course I think Mark managed to lap quite a few others as well!

Should definately be there on Monday BTW

 

[Gibbo]

Yup you can over-take on the left and on the straights are the rules and thats Mark making that car look like it was standing still. Mark also flew round some cars on the outside of the bends the handling was that good.

At the moment I am blessed with a brand new Corsa 1.2l shed on wheels. Mines in the bodyshop have some faint scratches and rust repaired and a couple of ickle body mods.
Should get it back this weekend as this Corsa is absolute trash.
