First track day - SIDC 15 March?

[ceejam]

I'm planning to come up for an hour or so, got other things on, so can't commit to the whole afternoon.

If there was a reduced rate I would be extremely tempted for an hour??

If not, I'm up for pax with some of the SE guys to get an idea what my Liz might be able to do

[Pedro]

Thanks Andy,

I'll be up early so as not to miss the briefing & banter

No worries about coming in to the pit often, my car's old and couldn't take many laps without a rest/cool down; I was planning to do about 20-30mins then come in for about the same time, then back out again, so I hopefully don't push the car or me too much.

No probs lettting guys past me, I just hope they are patient with the new guys; 25 cars sounds a lot on the track at KH.

I would like to get some pax laps with the more experienced SE drivers if poss..

Should be loadsa Fun

Cheers,
Pete

good man - 25 cars spread out over a good mile and a bit isn't too bad mate, at times its way quieter. Usually busiest at the start.

As i say sure there will be lots of people on hand to pass on words of wisdom & paxes - make sure you come and say hi

Keep an eye on the temperature of your coolant - you wouldn't want that to boil over!

Normally starts 30 mins before blast off so 12-30pm it is! Yip but generally after the briefing.

Bloody typical - that car in the rain is a major challenge, but at least the rear suspension is no longer siezed and the camera is now installed (some quality pikee RLC tape (with chief gaffer taper Shug on hand) and cable ties!)

Didn't see George on the sign up sheets for this one

Have managed to find an old ski top lined with Gore Windstopper though, so might be looking STYLEE this saturday, but warm hopefully

Andy, remember to wear a helmet on the way to KH!

See you there.

Keep it below 100. Most folks turn the heaters on to full blast on track as an over-flow of the heat in the system. TBH if you're on track there will be enough air getting into the system for it not to be a problem - the problem may come when your static in the pits. Most peeps leave the car turned on to ensure the coolant is still flowing round the system. The problem comes when the fan won't kick in...

I'll be packing my weather-gear for a few cheeky paxes in the atom!
