  1. Philip, amazing run! So gutted that your win was not recorded officially, but we have all recorded it.  Can I see your video now please?

    Also, nobody actually said what Tony’s magical video was about? Was it something depraved you were trying to get away from?

  2. Richard’s advice is spot on. 

    I did my first season last year and was tempted to change the car before I started.  I left it as it was and then worked out what I needed with help from the other drivers and gaining a bit of experience to know what was best for me. 

  3. To be quite honest Richard, I still felt very new when I arrived at Curborough! I watched the vids after and thought the same as you, which was why didn’t I watch these first! :). 

    I struggled with grip, which may have been my new tyres being too new, I also moved the brake balance the wrong way for one run and went on the grass as a result, and the fact I was not taking the right approach meant I was not quite prepared for the first round to say the very least! I also had not had chance to have any practice in my new car, so the first practice run was exciting...all part of the learning process I suppose!

    As for remembering the intro to sprinting day, that was almost 2yrs ago! I can’t remember what I went into a room for most of the time.

  4. That is a great vid, apart from the mirror as you say. Watching this and Tom’s vid makes me realise how little I know about Curborough, but have given me some great insight into how to go faster! I was not even using kerbs last week...

    You definitely know how to carry good speed through the apexes! 

  5. Good spot Chris! I was wondering when that would appear. I had a chat to the chap who wrote it, and this is the first time I have seen it, so it could have been worse I suppose! I didn’t say that class 3 was the most competitive class for example just in case anyone is offended in another class! *smile*

    Shame they didn’t use any of the club or series logos that I sent to them though.

    The magazine has improved a bit as well, and not just because I am in it...
