Yes, learned how to make a slide and how to correct it,
but its so hard to maintain the slide through the wet circuit

You should go there when you back to UK, its fun and they have instructor sit next to you to teach you.
(You will learn more than those Zhuhai track day)

The instructor also told me some driving skills which i found very useful both on the track and road

The term "environmental friendly" is costing all these nonsense my friend, we have plenty of blind "greeny" around us, they just want things done to feel good but never to really thought it thru... quite frankly, I think it is dumb; if we really want to fix those wirings for good, we actually need to change the whole set of headlights, now, is this really "environmental friendly" now?

One more example, the "environmental friendly" brake pads are even more non-friendly really, just to wash off the unbelievable among of dust from the pads everyday from the wheels, how much water were to be wasted? If there is less dust, there is less wash, and less water wasted really!
