Its funny I used project cars to practice Snetterton, tuned a GT86 to feel like my 5 and felt the track was too slippery and kept loosing it, the I went to Snett and yup actually it was like the game and my driving style was the issue

My outtakes

They were CSC5s but way past there best, too many events I should of smashed last year but doing solos along with sprints and hills I didn't really have the budget to keep things fresh, solos really kill the tyres in both wear and heat cycles, but I'll be honest some of that was pure crapness from me, I know this, can't reliably heel and toe.

Still I got within 0.2 of the record.

Rockingham is terrible for slippyness too. Would not like to do Cadwell in the wet, especially through the woods!

Really good day out to Cadwell. Not many people there so really empty on track, very very slippy until the dry line appeared.
The MX5 behaved very well & put up with me really pushing hard, chasing my paddock neighbour in a LS3 powered RX7.

Need new brake pads now- very unimpressed with the EBCs currently fitted. Anyone have any advice on pads for a MK2.5? previously used Mintex 1144/Ferodo DS2500 with success.
