I think three 340Rs came together. Don't know about the other one. There were two Atoms as well.

I Know the 3 guys with the 340r's. One of the guys was having problems with the car sticking in 4th sometimes, hence the car jacked up for a wee half hour.

I will soon as I have the cash, AA cover and as long as the elise doesnt spit the dummy with any problems track day will be next investment. Thats the car all sorted out and service done last week with an oil flush, just going to bleed the brakes and change brake fluid just to make sure everything is in order.

As I said last night if your brave enough be nice for you to sit in with me and keep me right for a couple of laps, try not to kill us both :D :thumbsup

I am very much looking forward to breaking my track virginity :mrgreen:

I will sit with you, no problem Scott.

Don't worry too much about the tyres, what you have is ok for the first few TDs. We will see how the pads hold up but should be good for a few laps.

Oochya :shock:

That'd shake up anyone, with the engine seizing... Sure you'll have no problem getting someone experienced to pax with you for a few laps to give some pointers. It's all about smoothness, speed comes with that :thumbsup

Hi all,

First post on scottish elises after my first time on track.

Thought I'd come on and appologise for holding every one up yesterday.
Cheers though, good times
