Anyone attending?

I will be there and I believe there will be a contingent of Focus RS's attending too.

Looking forward to the first TD of the year!

Yes, this will be my first time to Anglesey, its going to be my 2nd track day after going to Oulton in december last year.
I think this is going to get addictive... biggrin
in a dark red 306 btw. (Unless it's really really dry then may bring BMW instead.)

Cool

Done Anglesey last August and couldn't wait to get back. Brilliant track!

I will be in a Red VXR220.

i got some pax laps in a supercharged vx at Oulton, it was quite an experience! biggrin
I've booked some tuition too, am hoping to learn the track before bad habits creep in... It sounds quite a friendly track with enough space for the odd bit of unplanned lawn mowing.
See you there smile

I'll be there in my white E36 - first trackday since the M3 lump was fitted and also my first time at Anglesea.

Heading up with a few local guys in another E36 M3, E30 Kumho racer, MK1 MR2 and a couple of caterfields.

Spent most of my day sorting out an oil leak and a missfire so didn't get as much track time as I'd have hoped. First visit to Anglesea and I really like the place, will definitely be going back but probably stay over somewhere near the track next time.

Anybody got any pictures or videos from the day?

I've found one video so far on youtube, I think you may be on it at around the 3 minute mark?

I heard the misfire as you left the pit for a session, did you manage to cure it? I was there in a yellow VX220 with some friends in a blue vx, a blue Elise and the bright green mk1 Escort.

glenn3, your vxr220 doesn't hang about does it eek

Cheers fellas!

Brilliant day, weather was spot on and the car ran well all day. Couldn't have asked for better!

Will sort out some vids over the next day or so.

Here are a few laps along with an R1 powered Fisher Fury. This was after 16+ laps so the tyres were making holding a tidy line a little tricky.

It's between 370 to 380bhp depending on what dyno you want to believe. Was a good day and a cracking wee track, very technical and weather was spot on too. Must visit Anglesey again some time if I can stomach the drive home again :-( I live north of Aberdeen so didn't get home till just before 1am on Sunday morning !!!!!
