    Why do you keep posting clips like that ?

    I'm done with going fast, done with racing, DONE, hear me ?
    Done and dusted fifteen years ago, walked away, never to do it again, my life taking a totally different direction.









    Then I sit here with a whopping great grin on my dial feeling every tweak of the wheel, urging the pelican that's driving to go deeper under brakes....



    ...sigh.....

    BTW, I was surprised at the amount of suspension travel the little girl has.

    It's a lot softer than, say a Formula Ford is set up.

    I'd love to try a few spring/damper changes, some nil or reduced droop in the front and have a few more laps to see what times can be wrung out

    Surprised as well. Good view of the suspension all working through the Carousel.


    I showed the wife how cool she would look with her flying jacket and goggles as we cruse down the Peninsula to the Sorrento Pub.

    For some reason she's not that enamored to the idea.
