dazren said: Thanks guys. Can't fit in car with helmet on but you all have a blast anyway.
Or a racing seat from an american company that Guy (bluesatin) told me about, but being a road car I don't really want to barstewardise the interior.
Funny you should mention Peter Wheelers height, I tried getting into a Tuscan at VW in september and I had no chance. PW's height must be in his legs where obviously mine is in my torso/neck/head?

Bookatrack can usually provide a Caterham for you; they certainly had one that was hired at the last PH Folembray day.

Bonus is that they trailer it there and back for you.
Hi Ian,
We had a few novices last year with no problems at all. It's an extremely friendly and courteous environment, ideal for learning in. The scary thing when learning is other drivers - we ensure everyone is considerate which makes things a lot easier.
There will be a whole range of abilities there so there are plenty of people to learn from, take rides with and get some helpful hints from. The track has plenty of passing places so slower drivers don't tend to hold everyone up like can happen elsewhere.
Do it
...and you'll have a right blast in your S!

Can't believe I sold it, such fine fine stuff...
word for rustoni - do it, I'd never been on a track before and I can honestly say that Folembray was a great introduction.

Leadfoot said: Take the Focus. I might be inbetween Tivs & take the Leon. It'll still be fun on the track.
I would, except that what I hear about warranty issues when you take one of these here new-fangled electronically controlled cars on the track gives me pause. They record "events" -- which might include spins etc.
And anyway, it won't be anything like as much fun as a Caterham.
Top man Rob - hope you can make it. 
Aaaaarrrggghhhhhh !
