Likewise, I crawled into Dunfermline - even coasting on the downhill stretches.... I drove out of KH with 1 line on the digital readout (that is the smallest increment the gauge shows

!).
Was sure I wasnt going to make it. Car spluttered a wee bit just before the petrol station

but I did make it
Must find out where the nearest petrol station is before the next one!

I came off the track with 1-1/2 bars, turned off the ignition, back on again and it read absolute zero.
Bought 5L off Simon for the run to Kinross.

on the drive to kinross a couple lines appeared
should have gone round the circuit a couple times to get up to 3 bars again

Ross, you were directly behind me when you spun, I was just about to get out the way when I noticed you'd spun in my mirror - hope I didn't play any part in that
Had a great day yesterday, starting to get the hang of the VX so hopefully not getting in too many people's way. Had a stupid slow spin at the hairpin, but other than that it wasn't too bad. Scary moment approaching the hairpin with the 2 Porsches behind me though - the black 911 Turbo was overtaking me while simultaneously being passed by the silver GT2 - there wasn't an awful lot of room there, 3 abreast really isn't a good idea
Was it the T350 that went off? The last of the red flags seemed to stop the session for quite some time

As far as my day went i had a very productive one! I set out on a mission to persuade the missus in me getting an elise as a toy.
This didn't prove to be very hard at all because as we were approaching the Kincardine Bridge we just got in front of the convoy and she was selling my car right away! That was actually the first time she had seen one in real life!
It didn't take long for the convoy to get impatient and they then were in front. I made sure the window was down for that move.
Got up to kh and met me old mate craig who i didnt realise had an elise.
Anyway, had to leave sharp as i had a 4 hour drive down to leeds and had to wash my car and submit the advert onto pistonheads to go on sale.
Well... Result? She loves the elise! But even more unexpected... She wants me to get an exige! See you all at the next one!

'twas indeed Ali - did you notice that Volvo C70 who thought he'd out run me? I didn't even need to drop from 6th
I too was coughing & spluttering whilst following Ali to Kinross

Not at all Jamie - I was generally hooning all day, as my tyres are of the fooked variety - just so happened the lockstops didn't go far enough on that occasion
