comparison track day

[Engineer1949]

a little while ago it was muted that a track day for as many different cars from the tvr community would be a grand day out for all to sample turbos blowers n/a in all there forms and of course my little 3.5 wedge for a base line so any thoughts for me after easter would be good plus weekday if poss snett for me plus its megga safe but others may have there thoughts on this so come on lets do it in the not to distant future.

premier inn at thetford is only 20 mins away there is also the angel at larling which would be my choice literally minutes away from the circuit.

i have just heard back from javalin if you put my name in the comments box when booking they will give us a free garage for every 5 bookings they will give us a free garage so its something i guess.


john

[Engineer1949]

john

[Engineer1949]

john

[Engineer1949]

to be honest i am a bit disappointed with the number of tvrs booked thought the chance to show off your turboes blowers tuning in general would have cajoled a few more to come along i have tried to get a few interested but to no avail i am afraid, hopefully a few might turn up in the coming 3 days.


john

[Engineer1949]

what a fantastic day anyone who didnt come and could have wangled it really missed out the day was underbooked great weather and no red flags all morning apart from an incident on the siting laps ,grand to meet all the gang cant tell you how much me tim and nick enjoyed the driving and your company,pics to follow.


john

[Engineer1949]

lots of good points by peter and anthony i cant emphasis how much fun it is my car turns out a genuine 200 bhp being only the lowly 3.5 and is just great fun to drive, road tyres very forgiving still havent got the grin off my face and tims is even bigger he really got the bug so look forward to the next one some pics of the day below.

my wedge was the least quick in a straight line agree with list but found lots of cars to have a tussel with not least of all a massive nascar he just couldnt get it round the corners, plus a fairly quick puma and a racing school renault clio, my point is theres allways fun to be had whatever your power level might look at some proper trackday tyres as the road tyres are easy to push to hard.

could well be up for june 26th.
