I don't get home in time for this, but I will need to take dodgy daves old golf on track to see what it's like, and have been wanting to try out KH in reverse.

How do the laptimes compare for clockwise vs anti clockwise??

Neil, not sure about the lap times but the reverse is faster as the speed carried through the main straight is much faster.

It should be a good day.

Look forward to seeing you there Frank.

I still have that KH voucher to use.....so tempted...but....hmmm....I'm so used to SIDC days now with their awesome standards.

What are the driving standards like on KH's own trackdays these days?

Mark, I never had problems with the driving standards at these days.

Will be good to catch up.

A shame, with good weather this would have been a good start to the year, but off to the SLS rolling road day . . . .

After two cancellations at Knockhill due to snow/ice, I have finally managed to track the C2 for the first time. For a change, the weather was excellent!

With the medium compound R888s, the 280 bhp C2 is by far the most stubborn car to make it go sideways. It has so much traction for the power delivery. I really need 350 bhp or less grippy tyres for longer sideways so I gave up half way and kept the laps tidier. The brakes started to fade after 6 laps or so. Lucky I have replaced the brake lines (now braided) and the fluid (now Castrol SRF) after purchasing the car. OME set up would have boiled in 5 laps

After 60 laps, almost new rear pads were down to metal. I now need the new rear disks too due to scorching

. The front pads still have 40% left so either the pads are different compounds or brake is rear biased. In any case I shall be replacement both pads with more track oriented ones which I could use on the road too. I may go back to Ferodo DS2500 which I used in the 360 and worked well on track.

Overall, it was fun tracking the C2 and hope the passengers enjoyed it.

ps great to see old n new faces. Sanjoy, thanks for the photo.
