My day out

[Vagrant No2]

Had a little day out at Brands Hatch yesterday , courtesy of a rival Lotus club . Went out in my mates , friends Lotus Exige . A bit more tweeked then standard at 210bhp and Lotus Motorsport Manifolds and exhaust . Heat inside even with windows down was blisstering . I had to be shoehorned in and out of it and hold my sore ribs at the same time .
Also got a ride in a Noble 400 . Just run in at 1500 miles . 135+ mph on some straights and 80-90 mph round bends . That has to be the most rememberable drives of my life .Guy was still running the car in so did not want to drive to hard !. I was a passenger in these cars , as 1) I would not fit behind the steering wheels and 2) would you let me drive your car ? Noble £59,000 . Exige £24,000 . No way .
If you get the chance of a drive/ride in these take it . I know UDTrev has done Brands in a Elise and he enjoyed it .

Ah , thats my old rally suit/baby grow from the 'old' days of co driving. It was made to measure back then . Last time I wore it the zip burst . So i repaired them the other night , and I felt like a Bannana in its skin they were so tight .
My swimsuit chaffed a little bit underneath .

Tony , I did suggest a set of 35" Knobblies , but the wheel arch extensions and lift kit might upset the balance on bends .
