Thanks for the replies guys![]
Cal - yes i have been to knockhill, but only once though. i done a beginners track day about 3 months ago. really had fun, but unfortunately haven't been back yet. I am a member of Scottish elises and know the guys you mentioned. Not personally meet them though. the Exige was a fantastic car and to be honest, will probably get another Exige in the future. hope to see you around!
Cheers
Simon
