ADU 1B TESTING AT DONINGTON PARK Wednesday 23rd April 2008
We arrived at a wet Donington Park, but after some initial checks it was decided that testing the wet would be beneficial for both drivers, and so David took to the track for the first run of the day, followed by Alistair, with circuit laps interspersed with discussions on the handling and feel of ADU. With steadily improving conditions and a drying track both Alistair and David made considerable improvements on their lap times, and finished the morning session feeling more confident with the handling of ADU.

A decision was made to have some testing at Donington Park to give
drivers, Alistair Pugh and David Thompson, a chance to get used to ADU1B
before the big event of Le Mans Classic in July.
