SIDC 17th March

[Mike Scib]

Plan to pop up in the morning for a few pax laps

[ClarkyBoy]

I'm happy to take anyone out for a few pax laps if they want - I've not quite got the experience of tut, but i have probably done a couple of hundred laps by now!

just give me a shout, i will be in the Blue z4m

Most kind of you. Will definitely take you up on that as I am looking at a Z4M as my potential next car.

Well what a great day that was! Rain, fog and sunshine all in one trackday! Thanks to John, once again, for an outstanding event. Only two short red flags in four hours - excellent driving all round, even the mini's seemed to be behaving

I was without my sidekick and didn't really settle in to the groove but got some respectable times. The project for the day was to conquer my fear of Duffus and made some progress but worn tyres became more of an issue as the day went on.

Videos to follow when I have them uploaded.

Yep was brilliant! Car went well although need some stickier rubber as the t1r's were melting after 5 laps which was interesting! Engine light came on during the warm up laps but didn't seem to affect it any so can't be anything serious ...I hope!

Absolutely brilliant day today. The Clio was superb, ran an absolute treat and was excellent on track. Really couldn't have been better.

Massive thanks to Tut and Mass for the pax laps. I really appreciate you guys taking me out, it was absolutely brilliant. Couldn't meet nicer guys either, so thanks again.

Was also great to meet some new faces this morning and at Knockhill. I had a run back to Aberdeen with Tut and Clark, this was almost as fun as the trackday itself. Thanks guys.

Hopefully see a lot of You again on some runs or at upcoming trackdays

Top day! Good track etiquette. Thanks to John for organising.

I managed just shy of 100 laps (did about 125 miles on track). Did 11 different passenger runs during the day too. The elise was going well, I really enjoy that wee car,... now where can I get just a bit more power

Cheers for the pax laps today, great banter as always, need to get the car tax and on track soon.

[Kinger]

Big Thanks to John for a great day.

Really had a great time today. The damp start made it quite exiting for a while and when it dried out I'm sure I was putting in my fasted times at KH, ( according to my video I managed a 61 sec lap). Not sure if it was the new Nitrons or just a boost in confidence. The driving standards were exceptional today which really helped make it so enjoyable, the SIDC days are so much fun as everyone seems to respect each other so well.

Tut, I assume you seen me miss the slip road off the motorway for the run home, I would have to had cut up the char who was already on the slip road so decided to just carry on. Martin and I had a spirited run back up over Glenshee then out the South Deeside road.

Cheers

That was my dickhead move of the day Graham, I went off too early and through Perth centre. Presume that you took the next one, and glad you ended up with a good run.

Likewise we had a good 'un as well via the backroads and over the Cairn. However ten hours driving has hit home, so posting this from bed.

Well you are 85 afterall.

Have to say despite being 86, deaf, senile, incontinent and disabled your car driving skills have not diminished at all. In fact you might have even improved slightly, or it might be that your car isn't a dangerous shed anymore. It's still a shed we had to push start. Again. Just not as dangerous.

But overall impressive now that you're 87.

I popped over for a bit. Looked like a good day. Tut seemed to be having fun chasing the purple TVR. Dominic seemed to get his monies worth, suprised he didnt get dizzy with the amount of laps he did.

[Mikie711]

tut is like good whisky, get's better with age. By the time he is 90 he'll be ready for F1

(but will need at least one toilet stop)
