Car behaved itself very well at FCS on the track, and had a trackday at Llandow circuit on 18/6 that saw the car outperforming cars it really shouldn't have!
Here are a few photos from the day, have videos too that will be uploaded shortly;
Here is the link to the first video, not sure how to embed;

Got to say, your car is stunning Jamie! I like the front as well, looks really low without the need for adding an aftermarket splitter. Have you thought about removing the rubber strip and making it look smoother (from underneath). Or does it serve a purpose?

The splitter is staying because I use it to judge if the bumper is gonna scrape!
Matt didn't let me past lol, I lapped him in another video! My biggest "rival" of the day was an Mi16 powered Citroen Visa, fully track prepped. Had a few interesting duels with him! Had a passenger ride in it and love how much difference an LSD makes!
Also had a passenger ride in a Tuscan S, safe to say that was incredible!

Sweet video
Drove past Llandow circuit a few weeks ago, looks like a nice small but fun track to pop your track day cherry on! and I may be moving to Cardiff in the very near future too haha!
Very nice car too!

Llandow is very small indeed, but just means getting more laps in! It's not very technical which means it's perfect for beginners just trying to learn the limits of their driving and their vehicle.

Dam that track is tiny, but I guess it's better than nothing, and doesn't look like it would stress the car too much.
I can't wait to track my 206, just need to get a second set of wheels to throw on some semi's!

You'd be surprised, the oil temp was getting hot and the tyres (toyos) were shredded by the end!
