I get the track cover as an extra on my regular road policy. It's with Noel Dazely and the cover is 89 GBP per track day with 500 quid excess (unless you're new to track days, then its 1000)

I emailed you via PH, but for anyone interested I'd take 100 quid.

I think I was behind you on the sighting lap at the start, but didn't see you on track in the proper session. Was a good evening's fun, but would have been better if I'd have managed to get that 20 mins instruction. Ah well, once it dried up and stayed dry it was good fun.

I think on a track like Silverstone, I definitely need an instructor to stop me from wasting all my time trying to work out the lines. I think Snetterton will have to be next smile

You reckon? Compared to my last day at Abingdon, I felt like I was a bit ste yesterday...but if it looked good from your Atom smile

I found I was struggling in the longer corners to get a line that felt right, especially when I was on the approach to Abbey and all of a sudden a pair of Se7ens appear from nowhere in my mirrors.

It was good but I need to tweak the brake and oil cooling somehow. I'll be back, that's for sure but I think I'll do a half day next time rather than a 2 hour session.

Who was in the Orange VX200 race car?

Hi All,
I was there too so thought id best join up, say hi (and probably say sorry for holding anyone up!)

It was my first ever time on a track and after the innitial terror i really enjoyed whizzing round in my silver z4 m. If any total novices are worried about attending silverstone i can say that Id had nightmares about people buzzing all round me but it was very easy to overtake and be overtaken.

Thanks and see you at Silverstone again when i can afford some new tyres smile
