Default Epic

Posted on the Locostbuilders too, but also feel the need to post here as well.
Can only describe today as epic. Took the roadster out for its first trip since i have had it running properly of more than a couple of miles. Grantham to lincoln and back, took the strightest route there, was full of trepidation and didnt enjoy too much as i was waiting for something to go pop or stop working. Way back, took the scenic route, loved it, the sound the noise, the handling, outburbled the exhaust note of a 308 ferrari, declined a race with a diesel badged nova with some crazy turbo engine under the bonnet, outposed some dolly bird in her audi convertible, had fun, nothing too spirited but enough to get the juices flowing, deliberately driving to get the exhaust popping on the downshift. All my young cousins were bowled over by the car and all had a pretend go driving. Just a genuinely fun day out driving and getting a feel for the car.

Tyres set at 28 psi feels fine (Mx5 tyre pressure setting) Is it a matter of feel with regards the tyre presure that is best??
