track day at brands on 17th sep

[tbdgriff500]

I have booked the open pit track day at brands for wed 17th September to shake down the Guglielmi car, so if anyone fancies a blast come and join me, its got 2 seats so even if you don't want to drive you can get a passenger ride.

Tim, would love a passenger ride if possible - based 15 mins from Brands too so it's my local.

just to let everyone know who was hoping for a ride, having gone through the car yesterday checking everything, I am not happy to put anyone in the passenger seat at the moment, because of the seat style and the roll cage cross member and the huge oil tank by your feet I believe it is too dangerous as getting out is a contortionist job and the view out of the screen is less than 8",also there are no belts fitted with no eye points to connect to so I would have to wrap them round a cross member, (not ideal)and with the roof on it is a very uncomfortable place to be, the car has not been run since 2010 and I have never driven it either and apparently its a bit of an animal, so taking all this into account I am not comfortable with putting people at risk if there was a crash or fire I would not forgive myself, so maybe next time once I am 100% happy with the car at race pace,
hope people understand as it seemed like a good idea at first.
kind regards
Tim.

Tim,

no problem sppreciate your concerns and the fact you offered in the first place!

as Brands is my local, would still like to pop by as spectator, is this possible ?

Regards

Paul.

[tbdgriff500]
