Burchill Racing

Well the sun came out on a cold day, cracking venue as ever co driver for the day was Dan Ludlow who

enjoyed the 5.  The new brake setup worked well DS2500 & Performance Friction Carbon Metalics so

she stops completed battered a set of ACB10's but well worth it.  Will upload more pictures as they come

through, lots of flat corners which make you smile except when you in passenger seat.

Time had come to test the 5 so no better way than book a race.  After a frantic week of geeting bits done we arrived and raced.

Qualified 18th of 28 car grid.  Finished 15th overall.  Thanks to Andy Joss my co pilot for the event.  Handles well goes well brakes need some work

Next outing Bedford November 2006 with Lotus on Track which should be good

Thanks to Charlotte & Ethan for booking me on a Lotus day at Silverstone for Fathersday.

These cars are amazing, fast nimble and perfectly balanced.   Out clased the other super cars being driven on the day and I managed to overtake them all.

Cracking day first ture shack down for car handled well and performed beyond expectation he Roversport 1400 engine
