tut - i know theres an excellent overtaking opportunity for you when we are on the track together, on the main straight when i pull into the pits!
why have you gone for the harder compound tyres? i am guessin so your not going so fast when you do go off the track on the corners.

Scotty - not sure if you will fit, but happy to let you try. Bring your racing boots/shoes too if you want a shot.

I think he was meaning me and Scotty but fair enough. :D

I usually tell people to slow down (at least their inputs...) which usually works.
Unless it's Mr G's defective cousin who didn't listen and I think was the only person at the circuit who didn't know he was going to spin off... :roll: :lol:

We are hoping to come over for this, James (3 next months) has developed an inexplicable and potentially expensive taste for "Blue Suballoos with big spoiler on back"

Im sure there will be plenty of blue suballoos there. I will be there in my red suballo with a big spoiler on the back. Just come over if he wants to have a look or a sit inside it.

Head out the pits, and turn right...Keep turning right where ever you see a corner - And don't crash...

Easy... :wink: :mrgreen:

As Ross says, but do not turn right as you come out of the pit lane, wait for the first corner, or you will meet everybody else coming the other way.

SIDC days have sighting laps, which shows you the way round at touring speeds. But by far the best thing to do asap during the day is blag a pax lap or two to get a feeling for the speeds and lines.

:withstupid

Also may be worth grabbing one of the more experienced guys to sit in your pax seat for a few laps if you are still unsure after the sighting laps etc.
