I wouldn't worry too much about being a novice, everyone starts somewhere.. You should be number 10, so hopefully you can dump your gear in a third garage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmay Zoom Zoom Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Pro tuition is a good way to go. I'd say have a few runs check car etc then go for a lesson to get lines etc and work on it for rest of day. Most all, enjoy...... it's not a race..... start slow and speed up.

You'll be most welcome! I'm happy to take you out to show you the lines in a slower car (MK1 MX5) and you're welcome to drive it too. Sometimes helps to learn a place at a slower pace then build up through the day. Would be happy to passenger with you and drive your car if it's helpful to you, I know Rockingham well and hold the current class D record there. You can decide on the day if you're comfortable with that. I have an intercom system to enable conversation as well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're very nice you will be offered passenger rides by our merry band of men. Most of us are happy to take passengers that are keen on Westfield's, you only have to ask.

Looking at the cars entered, you have a good selection of engines to poke around. Duratec, Zetec, VX, Mazda, Sigma and Pinto. Have I missed any? no BECs?
