Not sure what style I prefer with tuition. Stu seemed to have a lot of people preferring his way of doing it. I'll ask Simon tomorrow. I think he did a lot with Mike Eade. Biggest problem for me now is travel. I'm losing a lot of Summer to dingo land.

Sh*t. White pointers. Went straight over my head!! Now Im thinking about swimming with sharks!

Mike Eade is good too front what I hear. Each has a different style. You have to try a few to find what works for you I guess.

GT4 or GTS? Can I have at least the illusion of the fastest Cayman for a few more months?

Bad news. You lost that when the 981 S was released, let alone the GTS or rumoured GT4.

That's a hazard of hanging out on here for sure!

So much wisdom from one man in one day!

Mike Eady is very good - a far more demanding & technical style. I'd highly recommend him.

Off to HD tomorrow to watch the racing and do some work on BB. Anyone else going to be there? Donna is spending time with Mandy which means good food for lunch at the apartment.

I think Neil runs those on his GT3. Would be interesting to compare them to original Cups and Z221s.

Ah! Should be safe for at least 12 months, unless Dave has itchy feet after all this Cayman talk.

Noooo, I'm going back in time. Loving the early stuff.
That said, I never gave Cayman's a second look till recently.
