A shame you can not make it Ian but I fully understand why
If anyone wants Ian's spot then grab it now, please insure you are at Llandow for the briefing at 9am and let me know that you are taking Ian's place as you might not be on my list if your names not down by the time I sign off tonight.

Other than that see you all tomorrow at Llandow

What an awesome day, Loved every minute of it. Nice to get the old on track which has only confirmed what I what to do to her. And it was nice to see that the S2000 didn't have the legs on the strieghts to over take

Many thanks to those for the passenger rides. Sammy your car is awesome the power, grip and braking is mind blowing. You were hitting the lines spot on by the end of session and I really enjoyed it.

Many thanks to Matt and Jason also, you both know how to drive your cars.

Kev, can you please pass on my thanks to stratstone for great day

and to top it all off, it only cost me fuel and £5 for the lid rental

Yeah its nice to see how the STANDARD red s2000 didnt have the legs to over take that blue scooby that wouldnt have the decency to pull over and let it passed!! Dannyboy, 4 wheel drive and what ever bhp. You should be going round corners faster than you were! lol. Perhaps you need a bigger set of bxllxxks. lol. Or if not i could always come to your next track day and push you around with my front bumper!! ha ha

Nothing to do with *****, it was the £400 of brand spanking new tyres I'd only put on 3 days before, I was not going to kill them but then again I wasn't going to let you by

I'm pleased you all had a good time and i'll make sure Stratstone get all the thank you's from everyone.

I must say I personally and a fantastic day, one of the best in a very long time i'm so pleased with how car and driver performed, my track day cherry is well and truly popped.

The pax rides in the 7 and with the factory lotus drivers were a real pleasure roll on the next one

hi everyone,

just a quick note to say thanx very much for a great day out. i met a few new faces yesterday.

and thankyou to stratstone for the invitation. if i could afford to maybe i would buy a lotus they are certainly a very nice looking car. they would have to make a five seater or four door version for my misses to agree.

however thankyou very much i throughly enjoyed it,

hope to see you all on 19th of this month.

cheers mark

A big thanks to Kev for sorting this out to us and a massive thanks to Stratstone for a great day


I loved the way the Lotus drivers flew through the bus stop section, very very impressive

My car worked very well round the track and the extra power and traction helped me overtake some nice machinery and had it not been for the fact that i'd done a full tank of fuel I would have stayed on all day

In fact the fuel was the only cost, i've not even used a drop of oil and the tyres were Litcho's

Once again thanks to Stratstone and Kev for the day
