Great run with Ali, both cars were in the groove.
Did you have traction control on Ali, great screech of tyres on the bends just before Kildrummy?

Re: Aberdeen run Monday
Heh, yup all the toys on for the road as a rule.
Great thing about the 2-11 is it'll hook up with the LSD and easily power oversteer. Warm tyres and lots of grip it felt awesome with only bumpy sections being a problem as it's a bit stiff.
A few roads I've not been on for a while...New Aberdour to Pennan was a highlight.

Some awesome bends on that road, many of them tightening up, had to use 3rd twice, and fourth and fifth a few times keeping up with your missile.
People take the piss out of N3, but it can not be set up too badly to stay with you for four hours. That yellow saloon that was obviously out for some action that hooked up with us at Huntly must have had something under the bonnet, along with the full roll cage, and spitting flames when he overtook us. Must emphasize that this was because Ali does not go flat out on the straights, neither do I, but if Scotty or Craig had been with us it would have been a red flag to a bull.
Been a bit flat lately what with missing SIDC and Winter, and the body letting me down, but today made up for it.

Re: Aberdeen run Monday
Yeah not bad for an old girl! I do some sections fast then need to have a rest.
Pace usually limited by visibility and risk though...
The yellow car was a civic. I wasn't up for doing insane speeds, public road and all that, and I have nothing to prove.
It was going well though and I gave him a thumbs up when he pulled over.
I agree, great to get out and just drive. Sometimes nothing beats a linking up the bends on a flowing road.
