Tempted, but never done anything like that before. Opinions on SLS? Anyone else considering?

Hi Bobby

Did a round last year. Good fun, and great way in to Motorsport, and a good bunch of people doing it generally.

Scott Robson, Clarkie, David Long all took part from SE and I know there are a few others considering it.

Certainly made KH much more interesting trying to actually put together the perfect lap.

They just launched the timetable for 2017 last week, but the first 2 rounds in 2017 are impossible for me and Scott.

If you want a chat about it, there will be a few of us from the organisers at Knockhill next Sunday afternoon. You'll find me in the Scrutineering Bay.

Thanks guys! I was actually just about to post back that I'd been in touch with Rory Butcher about the SLS open day thing on Sunday and was planning to go! :)

Decided to go for it! MSA license acquired. SLS entry as soon as the website is up.

Planning on trying to do the whole season, but unfortunately the August double-round weekend clashes with a alternative music festival I really don't want to miss, so that'd be be me skipping two rounds, so out of the points way they work for the championship.
