Hello mate - yep, still doing it. But it's Monday not Sunday :) unfortunately that has a worse forecast but I'm hopeful!

Shame....although I'll probably get rained on and waste £219 lol...which would be annoying.

Rain doesn't mean that a track day is ruined.

It does if it's proper raining! I don't have wet tyres or anything so would have to really pootle round - I dunno if I cba to do that :(

p.s. the forecast is a bit off still, keeps varying from bright sunshine (this morning's forecast) to heavy rain (forecast now). :lol:

Peter your good weather wishes saved the day :lol:

Had great weather in the end, awesome day, was in a pretty fast inters group (not just me saying that btw :lol:) - there wasn't really a mix of skill, everyone was pretty swift. I took a while to get in to it, but by the end of the day was definitely happy in inters.

No photos yet as they are not online yet - but they will be on their way :)

I am quite proud I managed to scrape my link pipe, and my right peg (peg - not hero blob - they got broken off by the previous owner hahaha). I've had a look and can't quite work out how I got the link pipe though, would have thought the can would get a scrape too - but anyway, still pleased :)

I also saw a red curvy SV there - did anyone from here go?

How was the GP circuit mate? Nice day for it too.

It was brilliant mate - I recommend it! Only thing I'd say is that it takes longer to learn the corners - having done the Indy circuit will help. The 2nd left from the Indy circuit becomes a much longer, tighter left - have to watch out on that one actually, it can catch you out!

I've found out I have to wait till Wednesday for the pictures to go online...the wait is excruciating, lol...

Great day for it. Was thinking September there is a couple of cheaper GP days, but there is also Cadwell and Northolt at this time as well. So much to chose from :)
