Wimp?

I would say I'll think of you leaving early in the morning, but I won't, as I'll still be asleep.

whats everyone taking????

We got 6 Vx's and an Exige..... so far



Add 2 Chimaeras to that (me and Tamago).

As for convoy, I'll probably go up on Friday night and stay with my girlfriend's parents. 8am start is a little early for me so adding in the 1hr 30 mins it will take me to get there... No thanks.

See you there!

The maximum number of cars out at once is limited to 50, so I guess one of the bigger ones, if not the GT circuit itself.

It's the South-West circuit:

"The South West Circuit (SW)2.7 miles of fast flowing curves, long straights, S bends and chicanes, this is the fastest and most popular of Bedford Autodrome’s circuits. Most Club Autodrome events are run on this configuration."

Steve,

Could you drop me a line via my profile? I've been trying to get hold of you but the email in your profile seems to have broke...

Looking forward to it too

Anyone know if there's a space to dump stuff? I'll have a foot pump, roof, can of oil and a load of other stuff that I don't want to have in the car. Is there somewhere we can leave it when we are hooning around?

Leave it in the boot, improves traction. You can put my passenger in there too if you like

Digi-cam already to go. Are any of the S2K drivers from www.s2ki.com? I used to have one. They are a fantastic track car, probably leave the Chim through the twisties but we can get them down the straights.

Bring it on!

If you are worried about going there, don't be. I used to work there and i have done a track day there. The guys won't take no crap with idiots, but then again they let you have fun to, none of the over-exaggerated rules that some tracks run. The marshalls are very good too.

There is loads of space to dump spare wheel in the pit garages and i have seen guys borrow tools etc to tinker if needed. Usually the mechanics are kicking about to see what turns up/blag rides etc anyway..!
