Niiiiice!  There was a big server crash a few weeks ago bob, the site went down for a whole day and lot's of pics(from the last year) were lost as one of the hard drives was corrupted, the pic posting problems are probably something to do with that.

A blat = a drive(probably at high speed). Eg. I'm taking the caterham out for a blat in the countryside, i'll be back by teatime  .

@ crail - 25.07.15 - 11:52pm Were you keeping up? My guess would be no. A caterham will match or even beat them off the line and is good through the twisty stuff but would get mullered on top speed. |

They had camara car so we're just taking pics up on Blakely ridge . Caterhams great for whipping round a corner at silly speeds (semi slicks) then hitting 80-90mph in a few seconds ... But that's it that's my wall Lift off at 90 some times 100mph if it's not too bumpy and I'm left stareing at long straights thinking Oh cr*p ! These two wouldnt even think of that as a set off yet , probably just half way up the power band before whooosh 100 turns to 120 , 130 , 140 planted like glue already planing to brake at the end of the long long straight that taking me so long  the brakes on that Porsche man they were massive .I soon ditched Blakely ridge with its long straights for all the moors side roads that look more suited to group B rally cars  not the best choice for a 100 k plus exotic that you have borrowed . I had more fun |

The Caterham will be the most fun, even the base model with it's 3-cyl engine! I'd love one, wouldn't even need big power. I can imagine something like a 1.4 K-Series or 1.6 Ford Kent being best for pushing hard on the twisties, just how i like my blats. I've got my Polo under 700kgs now, but it's still only hot-hatch performance. I can play with Z4s and older Boxters but it's not in Caterham league and never will be (even though passengers can sleep in it at three-figure speeds..) Power to weight beats an Elise 111R but FWD brings it down a level or two. |
