Ah, the trackday!

It went very very very very well.
And it was good.

Hopefully Andy W will give us a video link so we can all share the joy of S'ing. driving

Cheers Max

Had a great day, excellent track, both in the wet and the dry, although my back tyres are now dead, I think sliding around The Wiggler and Bunga Bunga finished them off. I now need to spend more cash on new rubber for the Scotland trip in 2 weeks.

Thanks again

Andy

Excellent day, big thanks to Max for all his efforts pulling this together.


Plenty of track time and just enough time in-between to calm down and think about things to try next time out smile

Crikey - bit of camera shake when the V8's went round? Chris looks like he hit the warp drive....

Surprised Chris coped with a circle as big as a race track - its usually the size of something from dunkin donut's

Simon Cant get in, as needs password. Would have loved to have done this (as never been either), but too many assorted fluids leaking from the car at the moment, which need fixing.

Excellent video Simon, thanks for showing it.

I thought the weather was perfect for our first trackday, as the variable conditions threw another element into the experience driving
Such great fun. I found the main problem for me wasn't brake fade, but brain fade. biggrin
I was disappointed with Chris's donuts though. wink
Every time he started to do one, he straightened it up & went haring off down the next section of track.

The award for best donut goes to Phillpot for his sterling effort at Phillpot Corner. spin
I had a go there myself but my effort was nowhere near as good.
I must try harder. biggrin

Thanks Max, 'twas brilliant!

scratchchin I wonder if Joe could do a better one at the next trackday?
I can just see him with his wide floppy hat & new non-floppy rear end set-up, putting us all to shame wink
