    That was a good battle! Guess the track was a little slippery off line then :o

    Yep, particularly when you have a wheel on the grass!

    Yeah, Ali was running appx 75 bhp more with more revs on tap too. All change for this year though.

    I've seen many a seasoned BTCC driver go off there in similar circumstances, so no shame in it! :lol:

    Did you manage to avoid the tyres?
