I've never been 2 this b4 mate, bit I'm guessing it's like the handling track at ten of the best (a short 40-50second handling circuit)

You coming then mate??

Dammit man... I need to pull my finger out... Id love to have done this, but one of my cills is cut out to 5hit, the other, I've welded up, blended in and all primed up ready for painting !!! #-o

Paint arrived yesterday, wedding all day and night Saturday = no time to crack on with it !! ](*,)

Just out of curiosity... is it just arrive and drive ?? :D I just dont think stripping the tyres off the 5 series is appropriate for me !

Oh. Elvingtons Very abrasive... so you'll get some superb cornering speeds and qrt miles launches... dont expect much left from the outsides of your tyres though !! :-$
