I was thinking of doing Abingdon the same week, in an MX-5 too. Where in Bucks are you?

Im hoping to be at Bedford on the 27th Feb. MX5 too!!

I've done a small amount over xmas to her so I'm hoping I'll be slightly better this time. (Or less worse might be more accurate)

Either bring lunch or get off track early if you're buying it there! Otherwise you should have a ball - lots of space, lots of speed and facilities I thought were pretty good.

If you're changing wheels and have access to an air gun and line then bring it along and book a garage - there are air line hook ups available and leccy as well in there. Just means a lot less fannying about being the last people there changing wheels rolleyes

Quite tempted to come along and finish destroying my track tyres but I am assuming at some point this year it's going to piss with rain or snow?

Cool thanks for the heads up on lunch.

I use a battery impact gun so no worries there. Is there anywhere to leave spare wheels / tools etc?

We were lucky last time and nabbed a single garage for our two cars and dumped everything in there. I found that 75% of the garages were unused anyway so there was no problem getting one but others have said they're normally all in use? Maybe worth the £20 fee to reserve one if (like us) you always seem to bring everything you own with you.
