woohoo!
Hey all,
Sorry, been busy so couln't reply.
Dino,
The Evo's and the Scoob are good track cars, but the GT-R is sooo much more rewarding than the others. It really did feel like a proper track car. I could drive it any way I wanted, either powerslide it on every opportunity (which I did

) or employ the slow in, fast out mentality using smooth lines and apexes.
The steering is superb, offering so much feel and control in a huge car. My main worry throughout the day though were the brakes. I am very suprised though to see the brakes perform superbly throughout the day (although I was sympathetic).
I absolutely loved the day and can confirm it was the best day I've had on track, ever. Donington is also perfectly suited to this car. But as Ian says, there are areas where complacency would severely punish you if you pushed it too far.
Tail out action is awesome. Very predictable but not letting you forget the size of the car. I loved the TOTAL lack of understeer though, very impressive! I cannot wait until the next Dono day (but I will be more prepared this time!).
David,
I thought you would come in the Exige, but I see you had other commitments. I will confirm though, that I was considerably faster than a lot of the cars there, reeling them in was very easy (just a lead foot would do) but Ian and I made a promise to each other that we would drive sensibly on track. We were very obvious targets to a few people.
re. Armourfend, I find them WAY too expensive. I have a contact for anyone who wants a cheaper and better alternative. Mail me for more details, meanwhile, here are some more pics:
I have loads more pics going up on my site very soon with laods of videos too.
