Yes it was a great day. Big thanks to the organisers 👍.

 

Good concise briefing too!

 

I only took a couple of photos but here they are. Hopefully I have plenty of GoPro footage but will need to check

Had a great time, thanks all. My Westfield was fine on the day, no issues thankfully as I was a bit paranoid about the drive back. Shame we were all so spread out. Big thanks to Tony for the burgers, coffee and use of a  chair. I'd not expected it to be so hot. 

 

Great to push the Westfield for the first time. The levels of grip are incredible. I found the mix of tyre walls and cones made finding my braking turning in points quite difficult. It got better as I learnt the track. I definitely need a trailer if I want to do more.

Also had a great afternoon eventually, sorry for the red flag in the morning didn’t even make one corner!

But thanks to everyone one that helped me find a dodgy FIA switch & temporarily repair it.
Had a great afternoon learning getting to grips with the new car until the last run where I think I was getting a bit of chain slip.

Lovely! 

 

What a sound it it makes too! .. not the typical BEC girlie scream, more of a growl. 😎

 

Have got some vid of me driving my puddin's off trying to keep up with it. 🙂

It was great to eventually see the xtr2 actually being used in anger. Like Andrew says the noise is not like a normal bike sound. @Rush Motorsport be great to see you back out with us soon

First vid from me.

Early session, following @Michael Whitworth, still getting to grips with the recent changes to the circuit. I've not been to Blyton for I think, three years.. and I was struggling a bit. Is it me or is it getting more and more bumpy? It seems faster in some parts and slower in others..

 

Ended up fumbling for gears and going straight on at Ushers.

Second vid.. although it says part one, it was actually the last session I did. 

After the circuit had allowed us a limited number of "paired" runs.. allowing two cars out at the same time, it got stopped in the afternoon.. boo!  

So, last session, @Kingster & @Andy - a15cro set off ahead of me, and I chased off after them.

Last one from me. 

Battling with Becs. 😉 

Not sure who the first silver car was, but I think it was bike powered? ..then along came @Andy (Sycho) in the XTR2. ... I had to try didn't I. 🙂 and ending up with Andy's pal (and new member??) Matt in the red Megablade.
