Is this still happening at the end of the month? There was talk of it at the last trackday and was hoping to put mine on.
Anyone?

Fag! Just bring your car, you rag it around enough so doing it on the track will be SAFER as theres nothing to hit In all honesty you can really find out alot about your car such as when the powerband starts to drop, how far you can push it around the bends before it over/understeers etc

Corners and tack lay out is verygood.
I was going to run one in April as my 4i will be ready then and my mates 528 will also be ready.
Sorry Dazza i wont be able to make this one but might come and watch.
Its a verygood day tells you alot about your car and also alot about your driving.

Yes mate, your first lap is very daunting but you simply follow the car infront as you do several safety laps to get familliar with the course

Hmmm, might join in with this. D'ya pay on the day or have to book?
Is this the one that's harsh on the tyres or was that a different track?

S'pose I could put my arospeeds back on coz they've got 35% profile nankangs and it's hardly like i'll have to worry about bumps!

Yes it can be harsh on tyres depending how soft they are. I was running semi slicks on the Prelude and lasted for about 20 laps before wearing down to the metal and bursting unexpectedly. On the Skyline I was running Conti Sport Contacts all round and they didn't show any signs of wear at all so next time i'll be using some slightly harder tyres.
