Shoddy!! Its a car, Its purpose in life is to drive on crap covered roads full of holes, nasty kerbs, uninsured lithuanians and big fat loose stones ready to chip the paintwork. How are you going to notice if you brush a kerb with the front of a car, or catch a wheel lightly on a kerb? Hardly...
Its a car. Whats more important? if its the car dump the G/F.
Mine hit a post in a Mk 5 Golf Gti and caved an entire side in €6500 to fix. Its easy to catch a kerb with a low car as it is to kerb a wheel. Best off taking a deep breath, not making a big thing about it and getting on with life.
Ditto matey, thanks for saying Hi.
1st trackday in the Golf where it hasn't broken lol
I imagine Lou will have a few Chris, if they go up on Northloop first I'll have a look.
My mate Geoff with the Sunbeam managed 107 drive by LOL For the rest of the day he had to drive down the right of all the straights to miss the testers LOL
The car that wee'd on track had me on the grass at the first corner LOL
My car was being shared on the day by Gem (first time on track) and her Dad, also first time on track, so apologies if it wasn't going fast enough or holding you up LOL.
Some of those clios are proper quick, Roffle...
I love CS power increases, they are powered by win, Turbo charged car forums, get another 30 or 40 with 400 quid and a map, people spend gazzillions for 20 hp if they are lucky, and the same torque as a vespa LOL
It has just been classed as a closed track by the ombudsman I think, after a lengthy court battle, which means, even those UK insurers that didn't mention it specifically will now have a reason not to pay out, It is indeed a concern.
Its not about leathering round, You can have just as much fun if not more, with 4 mates in a car, pootling and just looking at the scenery. Its about the experience, the cars, the people, the place. If you can't go there as a petrol head, pootle round and still have a great time, You aint a...
Mikey C filmed me once, results below, and racing drivers excuse, In actuality I lifted mikey missed the part where we were on the grass a foot from the armco. I aint filmed since then, I learnt a valuble lesson, it was my 3rd or 4th lap. I've been filmed once, but by a mate in his Elise, and he...
You can know the track inside out and still be forced to lift where you shouldn't, You can't always account for people changing line, accidents round blind corners etc, having said that he should of antisipated catching the biker. I imagine he knew the camera was on, and that leads to "on it"...
I practically live at the Nurburgring, But Zandvoort is one of the best tracks in europe imo, after that Zolder and the King SPA. Quite a few trackdays are run at SPA by people like Circuit days.co.uk Speak to Darren, He'd more more than happy to have you there, Not sure when the next one is.
