Excellent day at Croft
Discussion
Had my first TD at Croft with Javelin yesterday. Absolutely top day, I didn't really know much about Croft but I thought it was a great circuit. Flat but with a great mix of twiddly corners and fast swoopy bits. A good friendly mix of people and cars, and perfect weather as well. Particularly enjoyed following one of the 2cvs through sunny in/out, leant right over, front wheels going left and right as he held it on the edge of grip, top stuff
And had a great few laps following a guy in a Nissan GTR who was right on it.
I did have a bit of a tank slapper towards the end of the day coming out of Tower, which I just managed to hang on to, but no problems otherwise. I'll be going back there for definite.

I was there as well and it was a fantastic day! We have different views on the GTR though; his track etiquette needs a lot of work.
All in all it was a fantastic day and well run. I got a couple of videos, not sure if I got you in any of them. I don't think we were on track much together?

No I don't think we were...saw you maybe once or twice on warm up/cool down laps I think, but that was it.
There was no-one else about when I saw the GTR so I guess I didn't see any issues...shame. The only trouble I had was with the guy in the Atom who I tried to get past for 2 laps. Got alongside alongside him through the esses and there was no sign of lifting off or otherwise helping me through...so I just backed off and came in before anything silly happened.
Other than that, as you say, seemed really well run, courteous and safe all round.
