Hi all - just wondering what peoples thoughts are on getting days track insurance for the novice track day at knockhill on the 24th? worth it? waste of money? just dont drive like a tw@t etc etc?

Dont drive like a twat generally works.

try competition car insurance or Moris, wont be cheap likely to be 200+ for an Exige.

Ps, have a look in the insurance section its been covered quite a bit

good thinking any other track tips.....i have seen loti using pebles instead of handbreak once brakes are hot when parked. Any other things to look out for interms of car/engine/brakes etc?

Some advice there.

Best advice I could give is forget any thoughts that you are the next Schmacher, you arent

Take it slow and build up speed, when you start to think you are getting the hang of it come in, cos thats when you can quickly run out of talent.

lol - hopefully will be a fwe new lote drivers there too. Cheers!

ooh - where can i buy a tow eye from?

good man for getting out there.

Personally I'd be tempted just to do the SIDC day instead. The driving standards are spot on, and they are a friendly crew.

Yup, there'll be plenty of us about all day on the 24th

Blag some passenger laps from people too - you'll learn a lot from seeing how other people drive the track.

should have got one with your car mate -

Isn't he meaning a rear towing eye?


Mac

If its a rear towing eye you need trying pm'ing Stu to see if he has any on stock.

Dave you got the front one from G when you were driving out, rear one ? Erm you are goosed.

At least you have first hand experience in getting the car out of the gravel !

Biggest problem I have it over reacting when I see the flags being waved. (cue Ed and blue flag gags)
