Christ i've done a dozen full trackdays & 15K road miles & my tryres are still going strong.
So glad I moved away from FWD, remember stripping a front R888 at a Donington eve event one crazy 30C evening!
This is where I disagree.
Trackday is not a race never has been.
The supper sticky tyres become boring or they did to me mainly as you don't need any ability to be quick.
I have more fun controlling the car on the limit on road tyres.
Rsrs are not comparable with 888 as different price point...
Carbotech dought will buy anything else from now on.
Amazed is all I can say.
From cold day to day on road & hottest day in Aug on track never give up.
Cheers Adam.
Thought a few on here might be interested, I sure am :D
That 25 car was hanging onto the back of a 300bhp monster at Donington back in March, corner speeds were stupid.
Would love to do this just to get the 'buzz' of the grid.
Whats the cost difference between buying a fully prep'd car & doing one up?
Seen a really high spec one in a thread somewhere but cannot find it?
It was not for sale but guy was thinking of selling.
Re tyres, the RSR's are fine for road & track use, got some in garage to go on.
Anyone got any contacts or links for getting the above at 'mates' rates

The eBay ones are all different colours so don't want them.
It's turning the demand into hard cash that's the problem usually.
What you looking at 60-80 spaces depending on circuit, weekday or WE event, circuit prices vary considerably also.
Can I ask which tracks are being looked at for location?
The vauxhall forum used to book Donington park after...
A track full of noobs tripping over each other, missing braking, turn & apex points playing follow the leader is just dangerous= BAD
If you follow a regular trackdayer you will see the lines, the braking points etc etc the experience will be better = GOOD
This could go seriously bad if not organised & enforced correctly.
To many 'egos' with too much to prove, your typical forum heros.
The RTOC event the yr before at Mallory saw several cars destroyed, one the driver was lucky not to of been seriously hurt.
That would rule out at least half...
