This is somebody who can write! Fantastic opening post - most entertaining!

I, too, have walked into this bar, possibly just a few days ahead of Gray and am now happily sitting at the bar with friends. The learning slope is steep, especially for somebody who's last race was in the last century! But not insurmountable.

I've been getting great advice on here and will be taking it all on board. I may, however, break the rules and purchase a car that nobody is recommending. I like a challenge and I'd love to take on a lesser known car and see if I can get it to work!

I have a car in mind, but I'm going to wait until after this weekend before starting the ball rolling. I'm going to be racing a borrowed Kyosho Lazer at the Dunfermline Old Skool reunion meeting. I'm thoroughly looking forward to it - will my eyes/brain/thumbs interface still function as it did 25 years ago? Hope so...

Probably not.

Jimmy
