I have booked my first track appearance at brands this month on the AM.

Anyone else interested?

Brands Hatch Race Circuit - The Official Brands Hatch Motorsport Site

 

Great circuit but be carefull as its taken some big scalps on here

 

Been dying to track my 172 for ages!!! But I'm going to wait til the spring as I don't fancy doing it in the freezing cold slippery conditions.

 

Think i'll look into them in the new year. I didn't realise they did novice days!

 

Very keen on a novice track day, getting some work done on the car at the moment so 14th is a bit early for me, could well be up for one in the new year though. Brands is just down the road for me too.

 

Thanks for the heads up!

I've just booked and this will be my first track day as well!

I'm fecking excited already and for £68 it's good value compared to other packages I've seen!


Taking my mate as co-pilot ..... he'll no doubt pap himself!

 

Yey. What session you on? AM or PM?

Yeah im really excited too. Not slept since i bought my scoob inexcitement of doing my first day

So what if its slippy. Dont be a *****

 

lol, big words for a track virgin enjoy your day mate but take it easy, especially at Paddock...that gravel trap bites

 

just await the post about the damage ive caused

 

Dont say we didnt warn you

 

at TA an Evo a couple of cars in front of me rolled at Paddock; its a quick corner and the compression has to be experienced to be understood

 

only words when i did that corner for first time at speed is "**** me"

 

yep

You just don't expect it to last that long and work your suspension that much...makes you grin when you get it right though

 

I doubt ill be going fast enough to be crashing. Im generally quite cautios when it comes to speed.

And yes you have warned me. And it is appreciated and i do take note.

 

Don't have to be going quick to get into a bit of a spin at Paddock Hill bend as I proved earlier this year

50s in, I ever so slightly lifted off to let another car past

Good fun track though and very friendly to filming so long as you sign the waiver.

 

Right... if i am not working next sat night i am definately up for this!!!

Investigating as I type...

 

Also - what are you doing for insurance?!

 

AM but they will be no hardcore racing from me the thought of scratching it isn't worth thinking about for me.... still nice to live on the edge

 

Speak to Gary Molson (MoleyWRX), and tell him trails sent you

 

The exit of Druids is the one that catches most people out.

 

as if by magic...

 

Can you drop me a PM with contact details or a rough quote for approx 8k track cover?!

 

and here be the man .... I'm insured with you Moley how much is track insurance >?>

 

call him up. works out around £60 if your insured through him. worth it

as Gary said exit of duids is the bad one. just take a look in southern section for guv spec c's car

 

what happened, did he under steer off?

 

I think the back end went, and ended up in the wall.

Ref track insurance - we can cover, but only if we already insure the car. (£60 per day)

If you are insured elsewhere and they can't cover you i'd look at www.moris.co.uk

 

thats crap, hope he gets it back together, looked a clean car

 

It was a minter.

 

Better laps of Brands

Look at the qualifying or warm up of my vids to see what can go wrong at Druids, Paddock and Graham Hill!
