Default Track Days!

Thinking of doing my first track day in December (Brands Hatch).

As it would be my first I'm not 'planning' on ragging it. I've got a couple of questions though.

Could I go through a set of tyres?
Should I change the pads?
Should I change the oil, before or afterwards?

I'd be interested it knowing what a adverage track day would cost, beside the track fee

Cheers

What date in December?

Tyres will be fine.
I'd make sure you have decent pads and fluid to prevent brake fade.
Depends how old your oil is. I'd probably change it after, but not essential.

105db is one of their 'loud' days

A Blitz Nur Spec R with a bung fitted is 105db, most Subaru exhausts are between 100-105db

Pay the £25 to have an instructor in with you, best thing i did when i went there for the 1st time

If you were going earlier in the month you should look at this..... http://www.southeastscoobies.co.uk/v...ead.php?t=4858

Thanks for the link, I'm a member on there as well but didn't spot that.

That will be the way to do it! I check if I can get the day off work.

Thanks again
