just seen the forecast and now have a dilemma, Do i leave the Bridgestone's on or take the chance with the 888r's?  ........................we need a race support vehicle  888s yeaaaah who dares wins! Looking at forecast we’re in for a very wet day. I’m on a very VERY used set of AD08R’s.... I’m in for a hell of a day. Will be fun dude. Ile get footage of a train of us sliding around!! |

My BBC app says rain all day. It’ll be fun regardless. At least with a garage we’ll be dry!

Got to squeeze every penny out of that trackday fee....
Fun times had today, plenty of “I got this” moments, and made Jack sh1t himself at one point when we almost ended up in a different postcode, at least it felt that way with the speed we were carrying.

Yeah cracking day that was!! Im Trying to figure out whether its the best track ive driven 🤔 i think it might be. I can imagine its immense in the dry.
Great day to gain some confidence with car control. Lots of skids done.
Looking forward to the next one!!

That third gear rolling start on the way home.......you left me standing....i got to up my game now You know it mate. The best test of a car is on track, and I needed it in nicely. Mind you the turbo nut consumption is pretty high. Rotarys go through oil, mine now goes through turbo nuts. Looking forward to seeing what you can squeeze out of yours! |

Great day to gain some confidence with car control. Lots of skids done. Looking forward to the next one!! Myself and Darren agreed that Bedford is still our pick in the UK. Donington was nice but pretty short and there’s only 1 corner where you can really hold out a drift and have fun. It’s a very quick track and I can imagine getting it wrong in the dry leads to some tears. |

My pick for having safe fun rain or shine, for serious tracking i think its a toss up between Oulton Park or Cadwell.
Donny in the dry would be a good challenging day. Snetters is also good fun, like Bedford ypu can either go in "Race mode" or "fook this im gonna have some fun mode"
