Abingdon Track days
Discussion
Enjoyed today immensely.
Some great cars and great people, as usual with MSE.....
Highlights for me :
How good my car is on track and how good 888r's hang on (first track day in my own 7)
The FAF Blue 595 F500 (250hp!), peddled well and a great guy too
The Blue 7 that spat monster overrun flames
Yellow Elise - Honda'd ?
The sound of that supercharged MEV
Great day, can wait to egt along for another day....
My mates 300hp MX5 had brakepads resembling small bonfires after 3 laps - that'll teach him to use EBC lol....

The Purple coloured one has approx 190bhp - Rover K on throttle bodies / headwork / cams / exhaust etc. The blue S1 was totally standard.

Does anyone know if you can just book the basic trackday and then buy the additional bits (tuition, extra driver etc) on the day?
Thanks
They are very flexible but if you haven't driven the track before and want tuition it might be worth booking so you can get an early slot. Thanks

Except - I wanted tuition on the day at Abingdon - and the guys were ALL fully booked up.....
YMMV obvs....

Hey Lenny - Ill see you there.
I'll be the one in the silver 182 who has no idea what hes doing and is either in a wall or going at 10 mph
Good news - no walls. However, if you have aggressive tyres and it's very wet, you may struggle to keep up with the van on the sighting laps!I'll be the one in the silver 182 who has no idea what hes doing and is either in a wall or going at 10 mph
I have the s
t tyres that came with the car when I bought it (toyo proxes) so if its wet I am sure it will be shocking
I am basically setting a standard with the car as it is so that I can appreciate all the upgrades as I do them
Although the most significant upgrade is probably going to need to be the driver

@z4mcl Is this your first track day or just the first in this car? Thankfully there is nothing to hit at abingdon - If there was I would probably have hit it at some point... I've trimmed the grass for them a few times 
This is my first one in this car (my old one got written off by some senile German tourists) so I'm planning to do exactly what your are (basically see what needs fixing or upgrading)
