I was just thinking that I haven't seen any photos of this car, then shot back to the first page and spotted some there that I'd managed to miss previously... Very much looking forward to seeing something a bit more up to date though

I know what you mean. I've seen prices on Backdraft's website, and I know they're not cheap, and what's not to love with an LCR? Hope it's all finished soon

Impressive spec you have fella, explains why I didn't have the legs on the straights at Combe to overtake. Thanks for finally healing for me, thats a lot of power to get down out on track in the lower geared corners.

Best thing I learnt when I was out on the Nurgburgring is let a local go past and follow his line and braking lol.... you pick up a for lil things then. Keep it up and I'll look forward to seeing you on track next time :D

You were behind me for a while on my 1st session, after I overtook you. Noticed you had a better pace once I got past, when what I didn't know at the time my cable throw came loose and I had problems changing gear and then let you by. I have got a video footage from inside my car but haven't uploaded any yet.

Nurburgring I drove to Drover to get the ferry and then straight drive to Nurburg

Yea you were infront from the pit lane and I was behind you on your bumper for 3 laps and then you let me by. Just watched it and my camera had played up, the colour is all messed up and the grass is purple lmao.

Did you damage you tailgate then? Because I remember saying you had a dent in the boot towards the end of the day.
