What a weekend..
A couple of videos on You Tube... I know a bit tame, and the language is a bit choice, but the Stratos received huge attention and performed very well.

Next time I'll take out the track insurance and be a bit more daring perhaps.
For info.. My gearing is very long legged... Flat out second is about 85mph and flat out 3rd is about 115mph.
Got 4th to about 6000rpm ish when the speedo was pointing straight down.

Can thoroughly recommend it.

Only saw one other Stratos when I was there...I can't remember the chaps name (sorry.. too much beer), but it was a Lime Green Corse with round Gp4 rear arches.
I'm sure he said it was a supercharged V6?

Cheers
Andrew

That must have been Martyn with the Corse (see here (http://www.stratosec.com/Forum/showthread.php/74-New-owner-of-chris-savage-cors?highlight=chris+corse+owner))?

Good Video. I'm not sure your passenger would last long reading pace notes on the Tour of Mull in the dark?
It is all too easy to get carried away though, I suppose?

Well done always glad to see someone enjoying their car. Sounds like you had a great time. I thought my Mrs was a nervous passenger too......but now think she's a hardend petrol handbag:D
Mind you he obviously knows your reputation Andy !

I'll let him off cos he was excited, but didn't know they had relocated the Porche Curves as well;)
always the navs fault....
