Day before the time attack so I shall be showing the time attack boys how to do it. LOL In for a penny in for a pound.
Anybody else wanting to join in like 53wrx, pinseeker, budgie, Kin quick, yellowvanman, better get dialing because there was only a few places left.
This looks a cracking circuit;

Nice one Si, it looks a good circuit but not much run-off if you 'bin it'!!

I'm waiting to see what happens with the strike at work before I can commit to spending much wonga, I want to try Bedford first so I can play around with the DCCD and get used to sideways action without hitting anything

Have fun mate, I'm expecting the rear tyres to be shredded whilst the fronts are mildly worn

I take the day off work and this is what he spends his time doing!!

Thanks for the warning about the run-off, or lack of it Ross! The car is meant to be at a show at Duxford the following morning - best leave that as'TBC'!!

I'm sure 'Stiggy Ark' will keep it shiny side up Hills, the sides might need a polish, all that tyre rubber is a bitch to get off

Plenty of run off on the real fast bits but not much on the twisty bits. Anyway I like a challenge.
I`d hoped to do the first one closer to home like bedford but dates were wrong for me or a bit overpriced.
Hope your work sorts itself out quickly.
Tyre shredding drifter especially with my soft standard suspension. LOL
Never mind gotta start somewhere it should improove with age.

Nice bit of practice for Snetterton

I would like to do Bedford & one more at least before Snetterton.
I really fancy Brands Hatch again.

Depending on dates I might pop up to cheer you on

Be good to see you there Andy but why drive all that way and not go on track.
