UK Legacy.....I used to board at St Mary's College, In Rho-on-sea
Laura....it's this Saturday AND Sunday....your dad would love it....a fair few of us travelling across in the morning.
Lee....it's a "proper" tarmac circuit MSA approved and is just like Donnington, Oulton park etc....quite short ( 1 mile ) with quite a few twisties So not too much wear on tyres methinks

I'll say it now, rather than appearing as sour graps later...
The Skyline is new, and I'm taking it easy.. so when you pass me, don't kid yourself you're faster than a Skyline
It's me that's slow, not the car

hehe, you do realise that it's not necessary to mention the cars you've ever owned in nearly all your posts don't you Name dropping is awfully common You don't earn points for having expensive cars, and you'd be surprised who can afford them but don't talk about it. Money talks. Wealth whispers.
But no, wasn't particularly aiming any comments at anyone, just saying I'm taking it easy and having a fun trackday and not taking anything seriously other than safety.

Is it quick on track, Yep, hassles the best of them.
Last time at Donnington, i was on slicks, and lapping with a Porshce 993 RS (or 911 RS?) i think, and an Ultima for about 10 laps, they had more power on the straights, i caught round the corners, and under braking.

Lee,
Anglesey was OK, I wouldn't recommend it for any other car other than a Westie,Caterham type machine....very short circuit, very narrow with very poor and little run offs, 2 straights were short, struggled to get into 3rd gear for long.....wont be going again....having said that the P1 did well
Not been to Knockhill but told it's ace...check out the calender event on www.sidc.co.uk there's a trackday on the 17th March for only £55 all Subaru's too !!! I'll be on my way to Catalunya though
