    I've yet to actually drive one to see what all the fuss is, Only been driven round the Ring and Spa in one but that wasn't really​ that standard so couldn't really get a feel for how a near stock one would drive
     
  8. Think I'm booking donington on the 6th of December mate javelin £179
     
  9. I'm sure Andy bond can give you a bit of a review, he loved the noise anyway
     
  10. The magazines can review stuff better than me so Ill summarise in a few words.

    Sticks like shit to a blanket round bends

    Not sure how much quicker you could actually make it without ruining something else ( ie more power but upset the balance )
     
  11. Getting in an R26 is like putting on your best jacket, getting in an R26.R is like wearing a onesie, just feels like your wrapped up in it.
     
  12. Chalk and cheese mate. There are very few similarities. I was suprised tbh. It looks familiar ( plastic dash , handles etc ) sounds familiar , but somehow , miles different.
