And hey, if you spun out it means you found the limit.. Which is a good thing.

Hmmm, think I might put the spin out down to operator error rather than the car at this stage.

Came off a right hander into a steep descent with a left hander at the bottom. Tapped the brakes before I'd begun to make the transition and the car kept turning right

The back end passed me on my left and the car span 270° on the spot.

A few other people had come off in the same spot by the re-entry mud on the track.

WRX's make good lawn mowers judging by the amount of weeds that came back in one person's spoiler.

Some photos of the day. Jodie's compiling all the video at them moment, I'll post a link when it's done.

looks like an awesome track Pete

There's a downhill section you can't see from this vantage point that's just crazy. The locals have dubbed it "Oh Sh*t". It's sort of a roller coaster descent.

I don't work my brakes this hard on the circuit normally, even in the wet I could smell the brakes when I was coming off.
