WOW!! The Crx was superb at Cadwell

It is a fantastic circuit.

Here's a video from my 2nd session & was still learning the car & track,
so backing off a bit in the faster stuff

It took me a while to get my head round the short gearing & I ended
up using 4th in some of the corners. By the end of the day I was taking
Coppice in 5th with just a quick dab before turning in

Tried keeping up with my friend in his race R400;

He had a drive in the Crx & was really impressed how well planted
it felt, & was amazed at the Kaaz diff @Merlin

The diff was awesome out of Park corner into Chris Curve & the car
feels like a big invisible hand is pushing it down on the tarmac

Just saw this MG losing control in time & slowed down

Couple of pics;

The vids are excellent

The car looks like it is a hoot to drive. It sounds great too. I bet you are chuffed

The MG guy did well/was lucky to hold that. If he'd kept his foot in and opposite lock, it would have turned into a wicked flick round the corner

Love the way he absolutely whiped it off the track in reverse after, probably needed a good few minutes to catch his breath and wipe the poo out of his pants!

Yes, really pleased with the car.

Needs a quieter backbox though - was
Noise tested at 104 db static!

A Clio smacked into the Armco where
the MG had it's off. Looked like a
write off

Looked like a great start to get used to the car - that thing is pretty rapid!

That TEG was pretty quick in the first vid too.

Just glad you saw that MG ahead in time.

Nice vids, and nice car too! Good to see it being given what it needs round the ol' Mini 'Ring.

I still got a thing for CRX's, but then if I hadnt sold mine I wouldnt have bought my 'lude.
