Isn't a test day full of race cars blasting past you at warp speed? ​Surely they'd be quite angry at a clueless noob getting in the way?

Same here, i've misjudged corners on the road before and the dog kennel's just pissed all over them, I don't have the skill to push my car when the tyres are warm, ​it's far better than I am at driving.

I was about to say that's fixable until I took a closer look at it, sadly the money and effort wouldn't be worth it, better to just start again with another car.

I'd be upset if I smashed up my £2k dog kennel, ​I don't know what state i'd be in if I wrote off a brand new car.

I have to admit, i'd have probably taken my wheel brace to his head, ​maybe i'm not cut out for trackdays.

I was just going to pay for an instructor and do as i'm told tbh, ​hopefully having one in my car will keep any nutters away from me.

Nope, one drag day at Shakespeare raceway, kind of hard to crash when it's a 1/4 mile straight.

I want to do one this year, i'd prefer one that wasn't full of angry dickheads trying to kill themselves.

So which trackdays would be good for someone who's never been on track before, and doesn't want his car smashed to bits but tw*ts? Bit scared now tbh, just when i'm start thinking it's a good idea I hear stories like this.

What's an action day then, any old bugger on track?

Suddenly i'm not so eager to do a trackday any more.

Someone have an accident then?

It's the second one you want mate. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-II-172-182-Dog-Bone-Bush-kit-Twisted-/271021216272?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f1a1f9210&clk_rvr_id=473067501989&afsrc=1

WTF is a Ford Laser, i've never heard of those before?

I just taped up a flathead screwdriver and levered them off, starting at the front and worked my way back top and bottom, comes of easily once you get it started.

Nice, I do like your car it's the best B&G i've ever seen.

A few members have used these people. http://www.citypowdercoating.co.uk/ City Powder Coaters 9 Benacre Drive Fazeley St Digbeth Brum B5 5RF A mate of mine had some smashed up Turinis done at theirs and they came out mint, his threads on here somewhere, i'll try and find it.

MONG!!! lol

WTF! ​How are they not dead?

Once you do you'll find 1-5k rpm actually has power, instead of one massive flatspot. lol

I have thought you'd have a map on yours Chris? ​1*2s feel broken without a decent map.

Yep, all mods must be declared, although i've found modified car insurers to be cheaper than a standard car with Churchill and the like. Brentacere's given me the cheapest insurance i've ever had, and my car's got a list of mods as long as your arm.

I put my map back to standard once, felt like the car was broken, the 98Ron Fatschip map brings the car alive, best mod on my 172. I've been using it for years, my engine's perfect.

It just makes it run better and smooths out the power delivery, so it has a bit more grunt lower down and the 5k kick isn't so noticeable.

I was always under the impression that if you didn't open the drivers door, the car would lock itself after about 30 seconds, even if other doors have been opened?

LOL awesome driving!

Don't worry, i've started looking at Triumph Dolomites, old cars are cool.

Cosworth.......that is all.

It is nice, but stick with the program Raz.

Hats are a necessity, seeing as BTM is twinned with the South Pole.
