As I remember you were complaining that you couldn't keep up with me on the way to the Ludlow meet and this is despite you having twice the horsepower and me having a slipping clutch!

It wasn't so much couldn't keep up as wondering how bloody hard you were driving the poor thing considering that I was driving 'a bit hard', and you were pulling away :-P

Two tyres came free from me...
