Hardly show boating...
I would expect even Fd could do that.

Could well be, his white CSL was certainly quick around KH, about the only car I had fun with.

If that is what Steve's car is he posted about us lapping together, and had the video of when I passed him.
However I was surprised how quick he was around the corners, more so than any other BMW that I have been on with.

"Having been to 9 Walshy days at carlimits.com, and seen many different cars, the elise is actually my favourite track car - if I didn't have so much money spent on my CSL I would have one in a flash. However it would need to be faster than McKeann's LOL.
A good day and I enjoyed my laps behind and in front of tut."

That would really depend on how race prepped it is, and who was driving it. I believe Steve's car is still a standard engine, just with better suspension and brakes and a bit of weight loss.

Think he said he had about 420hp Neil, but could be mixing him up with someone else.

I agree that many Se'rs can do that, but if that isnt showboating, what exactly does one have to do to show boat??

Pop a wheelie in the car? and drift it at the same time? reverse drifting?
or just drive barefoot (that seems to work for publicity for some folk)

So, let me get this right, you pay him for the tuition and then at the end of the session, he gets to spunk £1k worth of your tyres to "enjoy" himself?
Impressive enough though, but if it were my tyres getting trashed, and my engine getting a work out on the rev limiter, it would be me doing the driving.
