No oil leaks, No coolant leaks and the brakes seem to work too, amazing! Boy the old girl seems to have some extra grunt in this cold weather, or may be I'm just too use to driving my other car.

It's such a pleasure to drive a proper grand prix circuit. The video makes it look very pedestrian but it's anything but. The long corners are super fast and require the correct entry speed and angle to avoid running off. Turn 3 looks like nothing on tv but it is in fact flat out in 4th gear on the limit. The brake pads I bought were totally inadequate but I managed. from a Clio Sport 182 Last edited by Scuderia; 26/07/2015 07:46.
