Down at CAstle Combe this weekend, and was at a track day yesterday.
First word of advice - if you are thinking about doing a trackday here, check it isn't sessioned. 12 mins each hour is a f*cking joke!
Probably helped the RLC though - done something to the exhaust as it is now louder than hell....hopefully sorting that today.
In the wet, it was really slippy, don't fancy that much if we have top race in it - car is prone to locking up under braking with a modicum of pressure, understeer and oversteer in , oversteer out.
Another good session for car control, but in the slippiest session, i was chasing Gav K and couldn't get past. He later told me it was hilarious watching me trying to go quickly and catching him only then to go wide or sideways and fall back.
If there were any photo's taken i should be sideways in a fair few. I'm now considered "mental" but apparently that is down to them associating me with the Ape and being from north of the border!
This would have been a great track for Neil though, really fast in the dry, almost on the limiter in 5th down the main straight before braking and some awesome corners to let the car fly round with the throttle pinned.
A bizarre day off today (cathcing up with work mainly
) until Robin arrives this afternoon when attentions will turn to the RLC, and then feeding Robin beer
Got be be at CC for the drivers briefing at 7.30am tomorrow, so I'm in for a very long day
