I went to the Ring...

Nice one! Never driven the ring :(
About your lovely new car.....what sort of mpg are you getting out of it? What are the costs of servicing too?
 
you know what!

Lets do it... an OCUK Visit to the Ring...

Plan for summer 2011?

(will start another thread)
 
He pranged his hire car :D

They billed him for everything that he broke. Right down to 1 euro 50 cents per bolt on the armco :D
 
I don't think there were any pictures posted at the time. Now that your pride and wallet have had time to recover Tom, any chance of a few snaps? ;)

I went earlier this year, lots and lots of fun... also lots and lots of driving. Had a bit of a pant wetting moment after a bit of unexpected lift off oversteer... managed to correct and carry on though. Really miss it now :(

I've not driven a caterham but I really can't imagine that driving one to the ring would be much fun!

With that statement it's obvious you've never driver a Caterham.

I took my Westfield there this summer and it was the most fun car I drove all day (tried a 2001 BMW M5, Mazda RX7 and an Evo V). So much so that the friend who owned the BMW M5 bought a Westfield the day he got back :-)

Tell me this doesn't look fun - takes a bike at 3:20 and 4:20

He's talking about sitting on the Motorway at 90mph for 6 hours which he is right, wont be fun in a Caterham. An experience, perhaps, but not fun.

The best thing to do is place the Caterham on a trailer behind that 2001 M5 and then take it off at the Ring :p

Ah yes - I see now. I towed mine with my Scorp Cossie - which I also took on the ring btw - did surprisingly well :-)
