Thank you.

To everyone who attended today, for a fully booked track day didn't see one que and encountered the most courtiuse driving I've ever seen on a track day, was a pleasure to share the track with you all. Think Steve set the tone for the day with his drivers briefing informative set the ground rules in a firm but friendly manner, from what I encountered everyone listened and some, really was a pleasure from start to finish.

Hope the mazda's ok, arrived just as the car finishedv rolling so didn't see the cause, car looked ok from a distance in pits but didn't want to go sticking my nose in.

It was a good day.
I would like to echo the thoughts re etiquette, the vast majority of drivers knew they had mirrors and its very much appreciated and makes for a much more enjoyable day.
Despite a few offs and bumps the delays were short so well done to the marshalls too. Speaking of which, the rolled car will live to fight again and the driver was fine as well, just a bit unlucky.

Everyone likes a video, yea? Heres my little CRX doing it best -

Thanks for the comments there fellas beer.

We were really pleased with how the day went, overtaking seemed very cooperative and just as important we didn't get any problems with the faster cars hassling the novices - everyone played nicely together which makes it an easy day to run woohoo.


Looking forward to getting back out at Oulton in a couple of weeks and we still have a few places left whistle.

Yup, was a great day smile On top of the general attitude of friendly co-operation, I also have to highlight the chance to have a race-winning BTCC driver (Adam Morgan) in the passenger seat, talking me around the circuit - which was really really helpful, following his instruction session mid-morning I started to unlock the wonderful flow of Cadwell in the afternoon session. Still lots of room to improve though!

A few photos here, mainly Mazdas and including the above-mentioned silver MX-5 indiscretion - https://plus.google.com/photos/1109711714971286466...
