Just remember and give yourself plenty of time to learn the car. The roads atm are very slippy and you don't want to stick your pride and joy
into a hedge.
BTW Well done on Passing you IVA

Thanks Scot
I was waiting for someone to tell me not to speed after I read the above back!
Think I will be taking in slow as the little drive around the test centre only emphasised how different the car is to anything I have ever driven
before.
Got to get used to the paddle shift and sitting at the rear of the car not to mention the height and speed.

Nice one and hopefully the weather's looking up.
Best advice - keep a light right foot.
Also be aware that being rear wheel drive they power-oversteer at the drop of a hat (completely diffferent driving to FWD).
Enjoy.
Cheers, Pewe.
What??? v v

Think this will work but not sure!!
Plenty more photos and a narrated build diary if anyone is interested. Just got to finish the last couple of weeks off then the build diary, price
info, contact details etc etc is all done.

Looks like a good idea to me. The mrs bought me £200 of trackday vouchers for my Birthday so I am thinking of two half days at Silverstone.
Any airfield track days near Tamworth (West Midlands) that you can recommend?

Well done on passing the IVA!
As for driver training, Don Palmer and all the lads at Cadence all come with very high personal recommendations, imo you wont get better driver
training than you will get from them!

Yes some good roads in Worcestershire.
The road between Kiddi and Bromsgrove is not bad with some good pubs in Chaddersley Corbet.
maybe meet there when the weathers warmer?
