Had my first JP corporate track day yesterday.

Few things

Their new Jag "LeMans type" racer is one serious serious car - runs on the South Circuit with the VX's. Apparently it has so much mechanical grip that groved slicks outperform cut intermediates...... They wouldn't let me thrash the nuts off it as they only have three running with no spares until next week.... Seriously good fun - and will totally trounce anything - radicals et. all will have no chance with this little thing.

New Evo VI stage which is the old north circuit but with lots of water, a water splash and jump (loads of "air"). Great fun, totally silly - but much better

VX220 Turbo - no turbo drama - just pure power. Better times than Exiges last year on the South Circuit, despite the addition of a complex slow stage at the end of the circuit.

Frontera's - new ones that leak - makes the water section very funny with 2" of water in the car

FPA - as always so much fun - few changes to the west circuit make the track even faster.

All in all - if you get offered one of these - do NOT think it will be like previous years - it's bigger ANDD better.

BETTER than before? I can't believe that.
I've been four times now and they have all been fantastic.

I wasn't paying () but it's around £600-700 per day from memory. Minimum age is 21 again from memory.
