Mazda are running free hot lap days around the country. It is free, you turn
up with a UK driving licence and over 21. Have a breifing and then 3 laps in
the RX8 and MX5. All for FREE. That's it. It's a tricky 'ish' course.

I run the timing gear and control the flow of cars on the track on this event.

Advice, listen to the instructors or if you want i could instruct you if i'm on my break.

95% of the folk that do it apply the power too early on the figure of 8 section, induce understeer or go in to fast and add seconds on.

I could also talk you round doing it as well while you watch someone is drive round.

Interesting. Nice work if you can get it. Are we getting an E30 M3 demo lap?

Boyd

sadly not as she is undergoing a little transformation. The mazda's do very well though. On the limit handling are superb and also just beyond the limit(sideways)

There is a drifting demo every now and again and at the moment i can can get demo laps for you as a passenger. One of the guys competes in the drifting series, but unsure if he is at the glasgow event. The other drivers are also very experienced.
