Praise for the Avon

Took the Avon - standard, not spent any money on setup, on R888s to Silverstone on Saturday. Had an instructor with us for a few laps.

He was hugely impressed by the car. He said it felt more settled, more balanced and had more grip than any Caterham or Westfield he'd ever driven.

Which I was pretty pleased with. Now all we need is better baffling to stop the oil light flashing on Brooklands....

We were being a bit gentle with her. That and the lack of talent.

it was a good day, not my fastest but i did manage an all four wheels off combined with spin, so maybe im the one without a brain or talent

What about the Busa Mini, that was rapid, i think it won outright beating the westie in the end.
