lesstatt Posted July 10, 2004 Author Share Posted July 10, 2004 i know he was like the Stig, so relaxed, like going for a drive to the shops, he scratched his nose while going sort of sideways in a 4 wheel drift while changing gear, i was just waiting for some corny music and it would have been a top gear moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Devil Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 The young instructor mentioned is Hyla Breese and is the reason I bought my Elise. He is one of the most talented drivers I have ever met and has the ability to terrify anyone brave enough to step into a car with him on a waterlogged track!!!! http://www.hylabreese.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
