Yeh definitely more confident. The first few laps at Bedford I was shitting bricks!! But towards the end I was much quicker, not braking in places where I was braking before, braking later etc.
I had a good teacher, Burp, he said I improved massively, not sure whether he was just saying that...
Im spectating the one of Friday at Bedford, then I'll be driving at the Bedford one in August.
(I want to get a few Bedfords under my belt before I try another track ;))
Considering he was using a Nikon D3 too! Id give my left testicle to have one of those. I'll be going to Bedford on Friday, so if anyone wants any shots of their car give me a shout. And I guarantee you they wont be parked car shots!
Nice start James, Ive spoken to Tom, and I WILL be coming down to you guys very soon to do the shoot on your cars. I'll give you a few tips if I can too ;)
Thanks, I'll try and get some better photos soon. :)

I would really recommend the...
When I did my track day, I started at just under 30psi. But then as we did a few laps that went up by quite a lot, so we had to keep letting the pressure out to keep at steady.
That was in a 182 though, cant see why it would be different though :)
Just FYI,
My car went in for the MOT today. The harnesses passed without any problems, the tester didnt even mention anything about them. They are the Sabelt 4 points, with the aero style buckle :)
Unfortunately the car failed on a knackered ball joint, so thats getting fixed, then jobs a...
