Assuming Covid doesn't rearrange our plans, a reasonable number of us (friends of Thunderwood Racing for want of a better description!) are heading to Bedford on 26 February in a rather eclectic mix of cars! Be great to see some more 5s out, plus it's cheap at the moment: car.msvtrackdays.com/Calendar/Car/BedfordAutodrome/2022/2/26See you there?  |

143 quid for a whole day of open pit lane seems very good value, especially compared to some of the evo magazine trackday evenings that seem to be more than that! I am tempted... How do they work out the noise limits? (And do they have live monitoring on track? at certain points only?) I'm honestly not sure that I'd pass 87.5dB drive-by because I swear my exhaust has got louder over time...  lol |

Don't think my car will be ready for this, but I'm very much getting it done early this year ...
I may have said that last year🤣

EDIT: I am of course aware of budgetary issues we all have from time to time, so don't take this as some sort of dig against being skint!  |

Did you know you can just buy parts off the shelf and fit them? I am well aware of such but... 1, wheres the fun in that and... 2, I have to make a lot of stuff as people don't make what I want & also budgetary issues - the diff stands over £1000 self-assembled, reminds me that it needs assembling as the Lsd in on a bookcase in the house  Rich. |

The drive-by thing could be more tricky... lol |
