    Nope. You know what it’s like MJ is so busy, you have to wait to get to see him. The cars had a TON of work done to it on the last two services, but it doesn’t matter to me. Marc’s the only one I trust. If he says it’s ok, then it’s ok.

    Power - no contest. The 430 is miles quicker with almost 500bhp. The handling? The 355 is better. With a good set of tyres on it, it’ll be sensational. I drove a mates 458 this arvo, as we swapped cars and it’s unbelievable. Just like the 355, only a lot better. Not to say the 430 is bad, not at all, but the 355 is a better, in my opinion, car to drive.

    It’s only my opinion. I don’t consider myself a great driver, but I can only go by initial impressions. I’m looking forward to putting the 355 on a track.
    You’d be a better judge I’d say, as you’ve had a 355 and driven 430’s.

    All good with us, Giz. Looking forward to the resumption of normal service (if and when that happens).

    Regards

    Funny you should mention 355’s and the track, probably the biggest scare, because I did not feel it coming, was a huge tank slapper I had at Lakeside under the old bridge in a 355.

    Luck, not skill, saved me from hitting anything.

    Yes. I’ve heard they swap ends pretty quickly if you exceed the limit. The E diff in the 430 helps that A LOT. With all the driver aids off, the 430 is the same. Being a mid engine, it’s what they do.

    It was a spur of the moment thing mate. Martin rang me at 8 and off we went. Jodi was not happy. She had stuff planned for us.

    I thought he would have had those changed in 12hrs. He's still too distracted by his new love to notice

    I had driven the odd mid engined car before that time.
