Ric MGA at Calder

Me chasing an MGB GT V8 around turn 8 at Calder last Sunday.

He had more grunt than me down the straight, but I passed him under brakes at the next corner, and would have stayed in front of I didn't lock up a wheel at turn 1 on the following lap :oops:
Anyway, my best lap for the day was 1:23.79 for tenth outright, his was 1:27.41.
We only got two runs, then the heavens opened :(
