~Thanks Rog - but fortunately the glories of fully comp insurance means that aside from 300 squid excess I'm ok...
..and good advice Re: the tyres - thanks fro the reminder - I've got SO2's on the front and have just asked for Honda spec Bridgestone rears to save any @rsing about....i'll re-iterate the need for 02's I think...
and all my tyres were 32psi...sadly didn't save me from the dreaded rear-out/kerb calamity...

was it wet when all this happened?
I have two driving modes, dry
and, wet 
I am so nervous about the back flipping round in the wet even the 660cc Suzuki vans take the corners faster than me

I'm on the point of placing an order with RaceLogic for programmable traction control. If I do, I can then offer group discounts to S2000 club members. Trouble is it's going to cost me around

it was the early hours of the morning....nice and clear (tho it had rained earlier in the evening)....but thinking about it there was probably quite alot of moisture in the air and some on the (cooling) road...
....but in all honesty stamping on the gas whilst on the apeax/fulcrum (whatever) of a 90 degree corner is only ever gonna have one result in an s2k - wet or dry....
...as far as i'm concerned that cat's used up 8 lives that night....'Felix' is now a legitimate target!

not quite.....It ran from the other side of the road towards me (hence kamikaze) so I was trying to squeeze by it before it got to the middle of the road......hence gas stamping.
sounds pretty surreal eh?
