First time I've managed to run slicks at Cadwell and it made a fair difference.

Best time in there is about 1.42.9 which I was pretty happy with. THere weren't many laps with no traffic though.

Perfect conditions with nice dry weather and not too warm.

Good skills D, was wondering how you guys got on.

Bit of a car breaker weekend. 2 home on recovery and one in limp home mode.

Full report on my desk by lunchtime please.

Looks like you lucked out with the weather at least mate

Good effort

No luck invloved whatsoever. The last 5 trackdays have been wet so I was due a dry one. Just as well as my road/wet weather tyres 888's, were slicks too.

Perfect conditions though. You should have gone.

Sorry a bit late.

Drove down via A68, stayed in a converted barn, had a few beers, went to bed, couldn't sleep because of all the snoring, slept on the couch for 4 hours, drove to track, drove round in circles all day, couple of cars brought home on recovery, drove home. The End.

Well that was a event full day out with 1 guy (Steve) arriving at 3am due to getting home from work late . 2 cars home on a recovery truck and mine limping home as just after lunch it started playing up by cutting out which ended play for me , between myself and Gav we came to the conclusion that it was fcuked Not sure what the problem is yet but it is either the coil packs or something to do with the fuel pump/filter but i managed to limp it home anyway. Cheers D for being my support vehicle on route home, appreciated

Cadwell was a great track pretty technical and narrow which my Pug seemed to be enjoying with its new Carbtech pads and me slowly getting this heel and toe thing The bigger ARB has defo helped with the understeer which is nice, which brings me onto my little spin . Once you come up over the mountain into the twistys the first right has a little jump where the tail came round and i think once it landed it dug in and spat me the other way, before i knew it i was facing the wrong direction

All in a great weekend roll on the next one

Excellent, feel free to work on expanding the next one, perhaps throw in a witty anecdote or two

looked like the wacky races with the 306 in the middle of the mayhem!

Looks a bit like a Hot Hatch day at Knockhill
