Many thanks to all at S.I.D.C. ( Stef , Pete etc ) a fantastic day was had by all and personally i think the weather made driving conditions more fun / challenging particularly sans ABS,anyway whats the point in having 4 wd if you aint going to use it.

I would also like to say that the manners on track were exceptional with nobody causing any grief or being discourteous.

Also it was great to see 2 MY 01'S now starting to look alot more desirable and proving to be pretty rapid on track and i particularly liked the grass coated effect on one of them

Lastly a big thanks to Tyres Northampton for the 4 new S0'2'S which proved invaluable after lunch for driving in a monsoon.

Regards

Tim

thanks to the s.i.d.c for a superbly organised day and to the drivers on their excellent track etiquette (when on tarmac !)
Great day out

I confess, I was driving Tony when we went "agricultural".

We aquaplaned mid bend, on the fastest corner on the track (approx 100mph). I think we got at least 2 complete tarmac spins in, before the grass ones.

Is it always that wet in Yorkshire or did you arrange it especially for us Southerners?

Cool

Agreed - excellent.

I perfected the art of turning on a 10 pence (several times) all in the morning session!

Managed to keep to the thing on the tarmac in the afternoon.

And, thanks to TN for changing the pads and wheels.

Pete, I live just around the corner from the circuit and find that you need webbed feet to live in the area. Thinking of swapping the Scoob for a speed boat!!
