I found the 2.2 manual a relaxing drive as you were never going to win a races, so never bothered trying.  ;D

The 3.2 on the other hand, can at least keep up a challenge.  :)

I vaguely remember trying your 2.2 against a TVR (? or similar, too long ago), possibly the day we picked up the LPG heap?

I remember losing, but one has to have what are now called stretch targets ;)

Only way it would have won that one is if the TVR broke down. ;D


.. so at least you had a fighting chance. :D

Sometimes its a fair fight, as although a fair few around these parts* have quick cars, most seem to drive them like pussys.


*not necessarily residents, but there is often some nice exotic stuff hanging around Silverstone, driven by people with zero talent.
