And there's some ugly bugger

You must be proud being involved in something and someone as awesome as that. There is something special about F1 that I don't get from other formulas.
Get rid of that bloody halo though!

I like Indy cars too, it's like old f1. I'd love to go to America and work in that formula

Never happen though

I started to watch a bit of Indy when Alonso did the Indianapolis Speedway, there was a new found respect for going round in circles having just done my first session on a track bike a Manchester Velodrome. It's incredible how much concentration and effort you need to go round a bowl.

I'm due at Millbrook soon to do my Level 3 internal driving permit for work.

I don't like the sound of the 140mph emergency brake and the bowl where you have to take your hands off the wheel!!!!!

I've also heard they will be flying me around the track in a Caterham where they enduce a "controlled spin out" and expect you to correct it.

Once I've done this I'll get to take the Prototypes out on the road

Bloody hell. That's amazing. What is it your work is expecting you to do with this training?

On the bank turn you will reach a certain speed where you can take your hands off the steering wheel and the car will be able to turn by itself going round the banked turn

I'll be authoring Grade-X tests for our new vehicle that we'll be announcing very shortly

Davey Boy · 16-12-2018, 09:50

Hey Zak
Make sure you announce it on here to!
Sounds really interesting!

They are quality photos Martin. Something to look back on and tell the grand kids all about

Well done

I heard that they wanted to put Zac through that as he already looks like he's stole it when he sits in it, he may as well be able to drive it like he stole it
