I drove the RudeBits carbon chassis tonight for the first time.

First let me say that I'm new to racing and so my ability is average as well as my descriptive knowledge of how the car drives so forgive my simplistic view on the chassis.

I've now raced 5 meetings at Ribble and every time I've ended up in the C final.......until tonight!

I made the B Final!! With the new chassis I instantly took a second off my lap time and in the final heat took 2 seconds from my personal best. In my mind that speaks volumes of the chassis, I can't see that my driving has improved so much in one week so it can only be the chassis, which proves what an improvement the carbon chassis is over the original. I think it grips so much better than the ally one and the car feels like it has much more steering through the corners. It feels light on it's feet if you will and more precise, I think the word is nimble.

Now, if only my driving was as good as it looks
