Snetterton - awesome

I couldn't sleep on Monday night - I was so excited about driving both a Gallardo and F430 on track which I've never done before...

In the morning we had a rain-soaked track which in hindsight turned out to be great for honing your technique because mistakes are punished more severely, and towards mid-day the rain stopped and the track dried out - it felt just like being in the Melbourne F1 - even with a few Massa-like spins throw in from some of the members - you know who you are!

Best of all, due to the inclement weather forecast, there weren't many other people which meant there were only about 15 cars on track at any time.

Personally, the first instructor's session with Colin was super useful and I really improved my driving although with no sleep the night before I was totally wiped out by mid-afternoon.

Thanks to Paul Williams for posting his photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/pcw/sets/72157623612964873/ and for this quote "Thanks for a great day yesterday - although I think we all missed out on some track time because of the weather...it was really good having the Trackfocused guys teach us a lot of good skills, and great to drive that little Exige, the awesome Porsche and the F430!"

Next é25 Motorsport is scheduled for 12th May at Oulton Park - reputedly one of the toughest circuits in the UK - we'll definitely have the 430, Boxster Cup and Exige S there plus hopefully a Radicle if I can arrange it.
