nixy Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Went to a track day today at Elvington and got taken out a few times in my mates MX5. What a bloody fun car for the track! Had a great time! Awesome little machine! Crash helmet was slightly snug and my mate had to pull it off for me! After that went for a tyre kicking session of AndySpak's new caymen. Really nice! Had a drive in it and was really impressed - lovely gear box! Very trusting of him after what I did to my wheel earlier this week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darren-B Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Mx-5s are great fun, me and my mate are just in the process of building two track ready ones super duppa charged Hoping to do a shake down with Mrlizard @ Brands within the next few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 I was amazed at it really! Just flew! The guy is an ace driver though - has done rallying and racing and stuff a lot of years. There is a noise issue at Elvington because of the bloody NIMBY's and he got told off for tyre squeal! He wants me to drive it next time but i'm not sure!

nixy Posted November 7, 2010 Author Share Posted November 7, 2010 Could he do this in his Mx5? Please ignore the black car, I don`t know what/who that was that reminds me of when my son started riding motorbikes and went round and round a roundabout trying to get his knee down! Think it was a standard car but not sure - plenty of sideways action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stew Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I like MX-5s! The fact you can pick up a clean enough early one for 1500 quid and a tattie one for half that is brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
