Why Andy? That's what the 165 is for! But then again, how did it feel?

I deflated the tyres to 28psi today and used manual shifts and got a 11.15 lap including slowing for roadworks at one of the fastest points.
I even overtook an m3 and focus St which I was not expecting. Its still a big heavy barge tho!

I will upload the video when i get home later in the week. We also did the F1 circuit and only got lapped by a Nissan gtr
