Scottish Elises

Right then thats me got my four track days covered with Rich Egger so now have permission to play.I notice theres a SIDC on the 19th would this be the best to start or is there anything before then.

Here's the list http://www.scottishelises.com/phpbb/vie ... d&start=30

A few 2 hr evening sessions before 19th Sept. SIDC trackdays always good and 4hrs better than 2 to get acclimatised also easier to get instruction if you want.

How does the trackday cover work for part-day events? Does a 2hr evening seesion count as one track day, same as a 7hr full day event?

If it were me I'd start with a SIDC because they are so well run and the drivers are the best behaved.

Yes i think so, so would be better for a longer session. They also gave me a discount for being on SE i explained at the time it was a online forum but now they want a copy of proof of membership , anyone had this prob.

Use this thread (see half way down page 2) just printed that message out and sent it.

Mary at S_E knows all the Trackday organisers, so you just need a screen print out, in my case the front page of LOT which shows me logged in.

Any length of track session counts as one of your four.

Here's some free advice i was given before my first track day and i always pass on.

Most important - Before going on track ENGAGE BRAIN!

Next - If at any time during your first track say you start to feel confident - GET IN TO THE PITS IMMEDIATELY !! - that is when you will crash.

Enjoy the day - probably see you there.

Thanks a bunch Tony! Why'd you not tell me this before my first track day?? Think my over confidence is why i spun my car on several occasions.

And take off that daft hat you were wearing at KH on the 20th of July.

A wise mod told me "when you think you are getting good, go into the pits......because you're not"!
They have free KH instructors too!
A great package!
