This year at Brands and the Ring, i could push much much harder. Hence the problems with the brakes

You have hit the nail on the head I think mate.

The first time out anywhere, you are hesitant and just feeling your way in. I'm happy to batter round Brands all day, as I have been there a few times so know my way around there fairly well. But the truth of the Ring is, this year was my first proper go on it in 3 years, so I was a little worried to be honest, when I cooked the brakes, that was me done. Just cruising and taking it easy after that. Next year I'll be up for pushing on much more. Just as Steve was this year!

Martyn went to the last Brands day that Mr PPP was at, he said that Steve drove the bloody wheels off of it, and looking at the Ring Vid he posted, he was pushing on down there too.
