It was all down you your tyres IMO

I nearly lost it, but it was entirely the fault of that blue and yellow Radical thing that wouldn't get out of my way. Not me at all.

Fortunately you don't see them on the road so I should be okay.

Nowt wrong with spinning on the track.

That's how you find the limits of the car.

I span loads on the Carlimits driving course.

Never span on a road though.

you have to exceed the limits to truely find where they are and it is all part of the learning experience (and pant wettingly fun!) as long as you do it in a safe environment.
