Mike - I am a long way from being the worlds best driver and had a hell of a laugh on the Cotswolds meet with all of 1 days S2000 driving under my belt By the sounds of it this is not something you want to miss out on

Mike - come along - you know it makes sense! - there are going to be twenty odd S2000's and a range of driving abilities (I was overtaken by a Montego estate last week!!!) - people who want to drive fast will drive fast, those who don't - wont - there will be a fair measure of both I am sure (if you look at the big US meet posts they always talk about fast and slow groups

In the current conditions, I drive like a fanny but I can still enjoy the car.

The petrol cap release was one I forgot to ask about. I arrived at the petrol station at 1am for my first fill up. I had to go and borrow a torch and spend 5-10mins trying to find it!

At least get the dealer to look for it with you and in daylight!

Driving skills don't come into it. If you can keep it on the road at 70* mph and steer it in and out of pub car parks, you have all the skill you need for what we're planning!
