Me and a few friends are either doing this one or the week after (gonna spy on the weather and play it by ear). Just done Cadwell on a wet day and want a dryer track now to play on. If we go, I,ll be in a Nissan Almera Gti, plus mates in Clio cup, golf vr6, and a Scooby wrx wagon. Hope to see some of you there. Havent done the GT circuit yet although a couple of us did a How fast session a few weeks back on the West circuit( wasnt overly impressed, hope the GT circuit is a little better ).

Of course, come and say hi and I will take you out after I've done a couple of runs. The car is rather close to the drive by noise limits and so I won't be flat out by any means as there are a number of places where I will be having to lift. A standard car doesn't have that problem...

I was thinking of this, one final blast of the year.

Bedford at the weekend can be quite busy though from past experience - who's it with?

easytrack - busy-ness virtually guaranteed but even then I've never really had to queue for more than 5 minutes (and it always gets quieter in the afternoon)

Yep will be there, not been for a while, looking forward to it. 4.1 miles for everyone to spread out on so will be plenty of space as usual for a good play. Will be in my Aston and with a buddy in his XKR-R, am thinking with the low grip conditions this time of year we will have our arms full!

The weather is looking undecided IMO. Not sure whether to get the R888 rubber put on the car tomorrow.

I'm leaving the road tyres on. The weather looks very changeable.

Used my 888,s on a damp/wet track at cadwell a few weeks back and was pleasantly surprised at how well they did after all the horror stories I,d heard about them in the wet. Got the front ones ( soft compound) warmed up nicely with steam pouring off them after each session. Had trouble getting any heat in the rears ( medium compound ) though. My road tyres are T1r,s so I think the 888,s are the better option whatever the weather. Praying for a few hours dry though.
