The thanks go to you Andy and everyone else who brought their car in support . Thanks everybody , it's nice to have a group of like minded Stylus owners for me to show off to !!!!!!!!!!!!!! As there's only one good viewing point (chicane) on sprint days I hope I put on a little interesting wriggle via the rumble strip each time through the tyres ? As it happens it did turn out to be my quickest double lap time from a standing start at 193.77 sec's since last year. The RADICAL , if it hadn't busted it's gearbox would have beaten me for certain but it's an ill wind so it was 1ST IN CLASS !!!!!!!!!.
Great for us all to meet and chat with Tim too , hope he didn't suffer too badly sleeping on my lounge floor !

God ! wasn't it hot ???????????
I just love the Stylus but she keeps swallowing £££ !

First in class!! 8) What a great result Rob. Really enjoyed watching you and meeting everyone. There was just a moment when you seemed a little closer to the tyre wall and a tad more sideways coming out of the Chicane than normal. :shock: What an excellent drive.

About 6 Stylus cars and owners in the same place at the same time :D

Can't be bad!

Regards, Paul

Very nice of you to say so Paul . Tim was grabbed by the GOODWOOD bug , the place is so romantic/nostalgic . At some point he and I will test together so will let all know when that comes off. Not booked another test yet. Be great to see two STYLUS's buzzing round together and would make good PR footage for SSC ?

I can't get into track days as the decibel limit is 98db's at GOODWOOD but their test days are 105db's . Unfortunately you have to have a circuit licence or a speed national A licence for test days. Tim has a circuit and I have a speed A. WE CAN TAKE PASSENGERS THOUGH !!!

Rob. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hi Rob

No, not heard from Werner yet, give him a chance !! :D
Had the 10meg version bounce back a couple of times, so sent a 6meg version later.
Should be good enough for most people.

PS: Thought you said your car was stiff, look at the body roll :shock:
