Snetterton 300 track day 05 September 2019

[phazed]

Guys, I've put this on the general forum hoping that it may get more views than under events.

https://www.javelintrackdays.co.uk/trackdays/Septe...

A very sensibly priced open pitlane track day with a 105 dB limit which should be fine for everyone.

We normally get a handful of chims here but it will be great to see some other models.

If you haven't done a track day before, book up, come and see us and we will ease you in to this only way of getting the most out of your car.

Where else can you drive flat out if you want to in almost perfect safety

Snetterton has fuel on site and a very nice cafeteria as well as garages that can be hired for the day for about 20 quid. You don't need a garage but Anthony, (QBee) and I no doubt will share one. We do that sort of thing!

I usually arrive the night before, camp and am nice and fresh,(ish) for the day so if anyone else fancies doing that, there will be a beer in the fridge.

Come on guys, you know you want to!

QBee and I are both booked.

I have also booked a garage.

Be good to see you there!

Come on guys, it’s the most fun you can have with your helmet on

Any more for any more?

Be good to see a few of the old faces as well as some new.

[phazed]

Brilliant!

I will let Precat know as he wants to come as well. Probably isn’t paying attention!

[phazed]

Thank goodness for that!

If we were down for rain I would’ve had to take the Skoda and spank you guys a*ses!

Trust in the BBC!



Light rain on Friday is only expected later on in the day.

Thursday looking good still.



Changed the oil and filter today.
Fitted track wheels and tyres.
Stiffened suspension.
Had a good check under the car. All looks good for Thursday.





Difference between the Kumho road tyres and the Federal track tyres.



And a few second reminder again from last outing at Snetterton.

1. ###### Has anyone booked a garage apart from me? If so, let me know on here and I will ask them to group them together. ##########

[phazed]

Of course Trev

I will be arriving Wednesday evening at some point.

Been there et cetera. A bit of welding or you can buy the reinforced drop link mounts and have them welded on.

A poor design originally!

just got back from mat smith fitting new wishbones. toys to test

anyone getting there wed night?

Apparently I'm in garage 16 and you are in garage 4.

They can't change the numbering as it was sorted out a few weeks ago apparently, (probably because they had to let MSV know in advance).

They said we are quite happy to swap with whoever is in an adjacent garage if it's okay with them.

I should be there first thing so I'll see what I can do and maybe you do the same. See you tomorrow.

A bit late now but any chance of any vids of the day.

Just dug out my go pro, now have to relearn how to use it!

Another good day at Snetterton on Thursday.

Weather remained dry and pretty much sunny all day. A fully booked day although you wouldn't believe it on track as there was always plenty of room, (Well it is a large track!).

Great to see the lads again, shame there wasn't more but I guess the rest of you were just polishing at home

Just a few little snaps which I nicked from the javelin site .

The 5.5.


Anthony.
