As an aside, doing my first track sprint series this weekend in my little Aygo in Class F

Number 74 .. I doubt I'll do it justice but I will try my best.

Wish me luck, I hope he is smiling down on me too.

Andy

Track...sprint...Aygo? Is this 'spot the odd one out'?
If you get 'Sudden Unintended Acceleration' in an Aygo, how do you tell?

Good luck, anyway, Andy!

Interestingly, no Prius on the list at all and I'd have thought those little electric motors ought to be tweakable for excellent acceleration.

As I understand it it's the braking which is the problem :-)

Brakes are for cowards, and AndyW35 ain't one of those if he's prepared to take an Aygo onto a motorway

Best of luck Andy!

And there was me thinking you was racing on two wheels.

Good luck anyway.

Good luck Andy.
If the mdf diffuser doesn't work try adding a J-damper, F-vent, 2nd brake pedal and beryllium engine block.

I wonder what time that 7th run 'would' have yielded had it not been void? Fill us in Andy.
