Default my evo @ knockhill

did knockhill with my evo for the first time yesterday, the track was wet but it didn't rain and the track gradually dried up a little bit on the racing line at least.

it was an SIDC dat but they never fill up te places so they put it out to some other forums - it was mainly a mix of subaru, evo, lotus and caterham on the track with a few other marques thrown in. standard of driving was very good and no one was playing at silly buggers which was nice.

here's an in-car video of me getting some tuition from a knockhill regular:

turn for fecks sake!

Knockhill is good fun. Did it in the TVR (in the dry thankfully) and remember how knackered I was after only two or three hard laps.

Now you know the circuit, you want to get yourself on one of those Hot Hatch dyas

Looks like a top time

no way - wouldn't go near one of those hot hatch days with the evo!

that wasn't my first time driving at knockhill - did it about 4/5 years ago with my old CTR and about 2 years ago with my S2000 - it's a good wee track but i want to get down to engerlund and try one or two others for a bit of variety at some point.
