I am a fairly regular knockhill trackday driver. Best advice is pick your day with an eye on a 10 day forecast !

Then check all bolts and torque where possible - including seats and harnesses !

Drive at your own pace! Trick is to join the " session" at the back and see how you go. Be aware that there will be some v quick cars that will lap you. Mirrors!

Knockhill like batteries to be well secured. If you have a tray with a lip and bolt at the bottom put a sturdy plastic tie around the battery as well. 

Although decibel levels are stated as important I believe they go more on personal judgement than decibel meters! If you are noisier than my V8 you need your exhaust fixed!

Gradually stiffen suspension during the day to see how the car behaves. Start from a 50% setting.

You are welcome to join me after April (sorn'd) .

If you wish to know more, have a chat about it or need any help then please pm me and I will give you my mobile number
