If that earlier or later than the previous date, can't remember?

To get the G-Meter and shift light, do you just need Sport Chrono or Chrono AND PCM?

I have got the G-Meter with Sport Chromo and the Racelogic type track app (forget the name) --- and I haven't got PCM.

I hope it will work properly !!

At the moment it's showing only using the phone GSM with an accuracy of 5m --- and I have,t asked about a separate antenna ---

Anyone else for Donington on 6th June? Would be great to get a few more GT4s there. Currently 4 plus a Cayman R and 981 Spyder if everyone comes through.

[MrLizard]

[Koln-RS]

So it'll be 'Friday Afternoon Car' - as they used to say at British Leyland

Only joking, I'm sure it will be absolutely fabulous. Friend of mine has one due in a few weeks, and I'm very envious.

There you go...

£219, 98dba drive by so GT4 should be OK. Should be at least 4 GT4s plus Cayman Rs and Boxster Spyders if it all goes to plan.

Thanks - tempted - but I'm a track day Virgin - yet to dip my toe into this murky testosterone filled world of balls and bravado - think I'm too scared ! What are they like ?

If you've never been on track it's fine, take it easy and get some tuition. If you've never even been to a track day just come along, pay £10 for a wristband and go out as a passenger with a few of us to get a feel for it. There's less testosterone and more PG Tips when we're there.

It's generally very friendly and not competitive at all. Driving standards are usually good with various levels of experience and talent as well as a diverse mixture of cars from £500 Clios to Ferrari race cars, each one their owner's P&J so collisions are very rare. Some people do take a trip into the scenery on occasion but that's more to do with a temporary lack of talent or just getting that last run in before the end of the session.

Avoid Brands Hatch. Did an evening there, passed the static at 101 then got blacked flagged twice and thrown off with exhaust off . Never going there again as others that go regularly also got binned .

[bigmowley]

Off to Spa on May 11th. Gold track. Any other GT4's or Spyders booked???

[Mustangs]

Was there 2 weeks back epic trip loads of GT4's one of the best cars on circuit
