Haven't seen any of you for a long time so will be nice to catch up. Not sure if we are going up the night before... depends if i can get Lupo into kennels for that evening and the following day...
Its a BIG circuit (3.1 mile lap, probably nearer 5 miles to walk the outskirts as there is a lot of runoff), I suggest you take a pushbike, or a good set of walking boots!!

Its as hard work as you make it really, but if you are flat out, there are a lot of forces/effort involved

As its your first track day plenty of stretching before the first session and when you are knackered don't go out on track.

I missed the last session at Lydden coz I was tired but Chris numbers went out and fell off although he denies it was anyting to do with being tired.
yes i fell off, but i tell you i really seriously WAS NOT tired!! mentally and physically i felt fine and had no aches etc etc the next day. but then i am a highly trained athlete! well i train for hockey and badminton once a week play squash once or twice a week and then play a hockey match (sometimes 2) on a saturday.
