Sounds good - get mine next week as well
3 out of the 4 somehow got corroded and Reading recommended changing them. That's despite the car having mainly sat around in a dry warehouse for most of it's life until this year....bloody awful things centrelocks for a road car. Really wish Porsche had never fit the damn things as they are actually a wear item based on track miles as well...and for the GT 911s they couldn't even do them with proper motorsport centrelocks like on the CGT or 918 (much more expensive but much better quality design/unit apparently).
D - shame you didn't make it down. Weather was perfect....quite a lot of cars and red flags though.

Yes it has.
Woppum - Big ferrari corporate day, tons of challenge cars. F12 sounded rather good, damn quick in a straight line. I got hammered by the 2 speciales today, just could not keep up, wonder if it was instructors ..but my excuse is heat cycled tyres and being a wimp today for some reason will have cup2s soon enough though!
Glad i made someone (moz's) day even if i am a tad in the dark as to why....?

A bit of poetic justice this. It's the fact that Moz bought a Turbo S without the centre locks wheels, which we endlessly ribbed him about forcing him to sell the car

From memory I did about 2.23 in the GT3, that lap was a 2.19 but there was traffic and I had a moment at Becketts, I am hopeful of doing a 2.17. I do have a video of a pro driving the car and doing a 2.17.
At Spa I did a 2.44 two up in the GT3, I was getting low 2.40 in the 211

The GT3 has about 10 mph more top end, I don't think the Lotus is hugely quicker in the corners, it is better at changing direction and the sequential gearbox allows you to always be in the right gear. The other issue of course is that I push the Lotus far harder than I ever would push something like a GT3.
