Absolutely. As a tightarse, if you think that actually spending the money on lessons means you get more enjoyment for your money from trackdays then it becomes cheap
I couldn't agree more

I'll take you out j8mie and teach you what I have learnt. I won't charge. Can't guarantee that I'll stay on topic though.

I'm not sure the brakes'll last long enough for MQ to teach j8mie everything she knows. I suspect some overheating

Well done MQ, good Mills and Boon version of our evening out !
pic of the latest STI scooby I went out in,
these were some of the EVO test cars so they were offering rides out in them.
It was a very capable ride , but so boring compared to the S.


Bit of Exotica from CAN AM with a big chevy stuck in the back (sounded nice !)



This is probably the ugliest car ever made, but it did have an S2000 engine and was VERY quick !



Typical car park scene with Porsches, Lotus 7, Exige all being popular choices of those attending


Just to prove we were actually there !


All in all a good eve session, well run , relaxed atmosphere, complete lack of Chavs ! and a good track to have a go at if you have never tried a track day before, nice and open with no real danger spots.
Theres another one on the 20th June if anyone is up for it ?

Tuition is well worth it and does make it more enjoyable.

There are two sessions of tuition included with a BatCat hire, but i've never yet taken them up. Primarily because i'm always to busy having fun!

Might try and have one in the R400 at Donington on Monday. Really looking forward to that and hoping the rain holds off!

Good pics Tintop. Will have to wait till I get home for a proper look though. Doing it on the sly ATM.
