Stupid amounts of grip are available from those, they really are.  I&#8217;m not totally convinced by the handling though; on smooth roads it&#8217;s fine, but when there have been repairs or worn tarmac, it&#8217;s a bit naughty and does what it wants, which is a tad scary.  I&#8217;m no expert on handling so I don&#8217;t know what to change to make that less so (apart from the tyres), but the grip that&#8217;s there is quite amazing, it really is.  In the evening went for another blast, with Kev, and all suited up.  I finally think we&#8217;re ready.  I now have a very short list of things to do before Sunday, and they&#8217;re all minor.
