Finally: My first Trackday (lots of pics)

Car  Glacier White 197 Cup
Yesterday I travelled to croft with a local car club for my first track day. I was totally amazed how good the car is and out of us all nothing got past me. :o

Not even the 300 bhp scooby (however he was playing round the corners and drifting until he got black flagged :nono:). Near the end of the day I was as fast as the scooby and faster in some places. People were pretty amazed how good the clio was. And many people commented how good i was but i tried not to get too big headed, and just said it was the car :D.

Was first there at the meeting point at 5.45:

Looks like you had a great introduction to the joy that is trackdays in a RS Clio.

From the photos looks like you were pushing hard, how did you find it?

I found it amazing. Went out twice without a passenger i couldn't believe the difference in speed and grip. Was just so much better. I felt like a was pushing as hard as i could, but next time i will prob think i was slow last time i came.
 
Nice one dan! i'm yet to take my cup on the track :) see what it can do. which car club did you go down with mate?
