Working on mine today and the wife just asked ”when’s you first track day?” - so that’s carte-Blanche To book one!

 

Not be ready until March though...

 

"First trackday" also sounds like she's expecting you to do more than one Chris? 😎

@Chris King - Webmaster and Joint North East AO She’s a keeper! 
 

I had a great day at Castle Coombe on Friday, 175 miles and only 30 ish cars most of whom b*****red off after lunch. It was bl**** cold (-1) to start with but warmed up by mid morning. New (to me) 13” with well worn Toyo 888s were fun to explore and bagged free tuition from Slip and Grip organisers, he wasn’t busy so did an AM and PM session.
 

best bit was by 3pm I had the track to myself for a whole hour! So much fun! And great advice from @AdamR as the drizzle and then rain came down so my learning  went up with the wetness of the track - never worked my arms so hard in a car! 
 

After my crap track day experience last year, this was so refreshing. My only niggle was my crappy gear change from 3-4 and 5-4 so need to bleed the clutch and check the selector to see if that fixes it? 
 

next up Castle Coombe again 7 April then after that I should have my trailer so it will be easier to venture further afield...

9th March works for me. Who’s the TDO? @syman84

Croft 9th March is a Javelin day so there may be a bit of club discount?

Yea, I'd be up for it if the weather plays ball.

Might do Cadwell on 14th but likely won’t book until Croft done.
