Spent the day at Elvington on Saturday, most excellent fun..
I found after lunch that I had this much tread (below) left on the tyres.. and THEN i started to chuck it down with rain.. which I thought would ruin things.
Did I stop ? Nah.. it gave me even more opportunity for some gooning around.. managing lock-to-lock series of tail slides for some 200 metres.
Even got some movies

A testament to the car really, being able to retrieve the car from 90+ degree slides.. with an idiot like me at the controls.
