Well. I must report this was a thoroughly enjoyable day. The circuit was pretty good and the organisation was top notch and the instructors were excellent.
At the end of the day my exit speed from some corners must have been 20mph more than when I started and I was having to brake before the 'Brake' boards they put up, whereas at the start I was easily able to brake after them.
Almost lost the back end a few times through steering while still hard on the brakes, or I'd have missed the corner, or putting the power on too early, but really gained a lot of confidence with the instructor saying "now flat to the floor" as we clipped the apex on some corners, with all 4 tyres screeching, but the car just gripped and gripped.
Really pleased with the little MR2. Was still being overtaken by most of the Westfields etc, but overtook an M3 (E36) and a couple of stripped out cars (Golf GTIs etc). Most of the machinery was track specials, including a Lotus Eleven2 and one guy had an NSX
Definately use MSE again and looking forward to Llandow
