Nice to see a picture of my X - still looking gorgeous as ever. Anyway, after Brands Hatch a number of us are going to a curry house in Coulsdon (near Croydon, just off junction 7/8 of the M25). Anybody interested then PM me. Kev |

Just been looking at the old Palma-Luton Easyjet bus. It seems a shame to miss this. I may come over and try to get a few passenger rides in the name of research, before I start taking the car apart, again!

Jon,
Take all three if you have sufficient rims. I`m only going to take the R - roadtyres and slicks. If`s it really wet then may spend time drinking tea. There will be a lot of cars and drivers we all don`t know, or usally see on the regular trackdays, so hope there will be a good standard of driving, and not to many chav`s with ego`s who all think they are in a race. If wet, I`m going to take it slow, and by that I mean, watch everybody else trying to be hero`s on the first laps from the pit lane whilst they dry up the track, spin off, and carry on. From there a few gentle laps having a look around, picking up braking markers and lines and slowly wind the wick up till I can travel around within my limits. If I pass people good, if people pass me good as well, because I would have moved over to let them, and I think this will be our main problem on the day that, slower cars will not move over and will try to stay ahead, untill the over the next few corner`s they have an off and everybody ends back in the pits.
Bottom line is if the car behind is faster, indicate, move over, back-off the gas, and let him go. This way we will all enjoy the tracktime available, and take our cars home in one piece. Reason for the sermon I have read on a forum how some intend to buy a scrapper for the day. If thats the attitude, imagine the driving ??????? Hopefully we will all have a good safe day out and we all bring our toys home in one piece, and enjoy the company.
See you all on Thursday, Regards, Dave |

Dave,
Wise words, I share your concerns I had a wasted day at Mallory a few years ago because the track was closed to recover cars that had left the black stuff when it went to open pit lane in the afternoon. I don't think I get a full lap in. We have some element of control by not getting dragged into a "race" but backing off and if the standard of driving by some is very poor then getting the MSV folks to "have a word". Based on the wording of their website I hope MSV will marshal it tightly, it is my first time at Brands so have no experience of their approach. Roll on Thursday. |
