Glad to hear it Alan. EPR has to be one of the most challenging and rewarding tracks to drive in the whole country so your boys and girls are getting great experience on one of the country's premier (IMO) tracks.
Driving 2WD is still an art and can be more difficult at first but once mastered, it can be a hugely rewarding style of racing with more finesse being required than for 4WD. It's also cheaper in terms of running costs etc but for me, popping a power wheelie off the line is great fun even if it doesn't help the cornering cause
What's also interesting is that 2WD at EPR can be faster than 4WD - the only 15 lappers yesterday were 2WD.

Looking forward to Fav on the 17th - assuming I survive the trek across the border next weekend
