If you're interested, give the RMA a ring www.rma-limited.com or co.uk.

Price includes day membership too!

Open pitlane

Only a few places left

I think I'm addicted!

Hope you all enjoy yourselves. The reason it's this cheap is that it's a freebie day that JP gave to RMA because an event earlier in the year was a disaster. All participants were offered a free replacement day. Unfortunately, many like myself are at SPA and Nurburgring this weekend with RMA and therefore could'nt take advantage of this offer.

Interestingly, RMA were not prepared to offer those of us going to SPA any sort of discount or compensation but were keen to learn if we couldn't attend Bedford so that they could sell off the the spaces and presumably pocket large amounts of cash.

The girl did say it's not a regular event. Sorry to hear of your misfortune.

They're also doing a cheapish day on the 20th nov and 11th Dec (£175 a pop).

As previously stated, the Queens head hotel (mk44) is about 2 miles down the road. £30 for a single room, £40 for a double/twin. Book through www.laterooms.com or call 0161 831 3898

See you all there!

Darn you gt3 boys! You need some more body roll / tyre slip slidiness (see soon to be attached video).

Everytime one of you guys is behind me my rear tyres shrink to 145's (or at least be car behaves like it) and I have to do extra steering twiddling!

We all had to start somewhere !!!

Just remember, you could certainly get you own back on a wet twisty B road !!!

Horses for courses.

Thinking about doing this. Any advise for a trackday virgin? Is there any special kit I need? What if I don't have a crash helmet?

Barry,


This is a perfect track for 1st timers,

Lots of run off and nothing to hit apart from lots of grassy fields.

I think RMA will let you borrow helmets for £20 deposit, but would be best if you could borrow one from a mate.

I have done this track 9-10 times now, and know it pretty well, would be happy to give any advice if needed.


Be carefull though, because after the 1st one you'll be hooked !!!

P,

Yes, wasn't feeling well, and then started to feel worse on the way home, managed to get within 1 mile of my home, then threw up all over the inside of my GT3 three times


Spent the rest of the night talking to the toilet...

So hoping to make a full day this weekend !!!
