Discussion
as my Cup tyres will be all over the place.

ooh, you've got a scooby now Tif? Is that because of your experience in your friends? I'm sure it's a world away from the early STI V3 I had!
alan,
yes it was, but it was also because my integra's engine went pop.
Mines got the centre diff jobby so its virtually rwd if i want it to be, but I havent tracked it yet.
Are you going on Saturday???
No, family duties to perform i'm afraid!
I found my scooby very boring to drive compared to the porker; you do much more steering with the throttle - when sideways you merely keep the front wheels dead straight and when you want to straighten up again you merely floor it and it just pulls itself round and away you go. Arcade style I suppose!

I was thinking of going but being an open pit lane it looks like I would just be slowing you folks down in an s2000. Would also be my first trackday so probably best to wait for some kind of novice day.

mate, open pit days are better for everyone, novices or veterans.
Plus there were only 70 odd cars there, which on a track that usually takes 120, was bugger all.
The place was very quiet.
You would have loved it.

22nd October is the bedford day isnt it? Any ideas on how many will be attending? It seems you can still book online, still thinking about it myself.
its a motorsportvision day with only 60 cars running on two circuits at the autodrome.
good value ..id go if i hadnt been last week.
An S2000 can keep up with much more exotic stuff. It's all about the driver. For example most (not all) Porkers tend to be driven reasonably slowly on the trackdays I've been on. Probably due to the fact they're worried about stuffing it.
And openpit lane is good for learning. You can watch peoples lines. And finally most track days have cones where you should turn in, where you apex and exit. And some also have suggested braking points.
Do it. The S2000 really comes alive on the track.
