The car is definitely less fun to drive when the weather is shite, but then most cars are.
I'm thinking one of those Rage off-road karts from Top Gear last night is the way forward, no traffic worries, and even more fun in the rain!

The roads were a nightmare - I could do no more than 25 mph with the 18" Volks on. Every few yards there was a screeching and shreading sound as I hit a pot hole and the tyres disappeared in to the rear wheel arch
I did 40 miles like that and decide it was going to either puncture both rears or damage the car.That combined with the LSB refusing to stop on the Catacol Bay Hotel (and I use the word Hotel loosely
), there being no other rooms anywhere and the ferry guys being unable to tell us when we could get back as they were fully booked I had no choice but to sit in the ferry queue until there was a space
The scenery was fantastic. I will go back. But with the OEM 17s on and book a good hotel a long time in advance!
I grounded badly once on the weekend, but that was due to me braking hard on a hump and coming down the other side quite hard!!
You should have spoken to us, the P1's and Shiskine had spare rooms in their houses
You missed a top weekend
anyways, glad you got back ok, and hope you can make it there another time

Not got an NSX yet then Col?
They're sooooo tempting - but I'd be getting a 6 year old car instead of a new one, the S2000's cost bu55er all to service and run for 4 years, and after this year's holidays I can't afford ANY change
