ED: - A 200sx? I'm still uneasy about 'drifting' on trackdays :? Sometimes they are black flagged, sometimes they arent. If they know what they are doing, and do their 'thing' away from other cars I'm not so fussed but it gets me a bit annoyed when you're behind them and they slow right down just to go sideways. Point taken on-board... I'll add a bit in future trackday info.

Wet day but fun. Felt really rusty after being off track for a few months. Must get back into the zone.

:cheers to the 2009 TD season!

Dave, Camp anytime :thumbsup

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

Thats the one. A wee bit of drifting here and there i reckon is ok (hairpin etc) but literally its was everywhere and dangerous imho. Especially as there was queuing cars behind him.

Mass - you should take some laps out and watch Paul Gibson in his 340R, in a different league with control at the hairpin . . .

Wahay. Congrats on getting your machine out on track, Simon. Much respect! Must have felt quite something as you first headed out the pitlane in a car you've scratch-built 8) :thumbsup

...look forward to reading about your season (assuming you're racing this year).
