1100miles, 1 awesome track!!

[172Ben]

Got back late last night, covered around 1100 miles, clio didnt miss a beat Averaged 35.3 MPG.

Was awesome on track this year compared to last year, coilovers and 4 pots certantly helped, aswell as no weight in the rear

Met Dan R, throttle bodies sounded awesome echoing round the track, and it certantly looked rapid. Few more clios there aswell, also Ant1's evo was there i believe.....

All was well until -

M6 had a blow out at 160mph :S

This is not me by the way

We left the M6 behind, while he waited for a breakdown truck, which i think took him to the local garage. All i know is that they didnt have his tyre size in stock, so he ended up with some slightly smaller Uni royals, lol!! 60euro each i believe, he wasnt happy

His first trip

I believe this is Ant1's evo?

Dan R

Reyland focus was immense, rapid as expect - Got abit to hot though He eventually crashed later on, dont think it was bad, but he didnt look happy

Golf TDI from Ringhaus - The kid in the background was a legend on Gran turismo 4 aswell!!

Rapid? YES!

Not me!

Hmmmmm

Hotel car park wasnt big enough, so it was free for all on the side of the read/grassy area

[Guppy]

Looks an awesome trip Ben!!

Thats my mates Rallye also. Should be bodied now i believe....

 

[ForceIndia]

Wish I could get over, looks awesome. One thing thats bothered me recently, is it worth it? I read about a lot of people going and only getting a few laps in, is it worth it given the hassle getting over there? Can you only do 1 lap at a time?

 

[Skinny]

It's ants evo, same reg, just checked his thread.

 

[172Ben]

You can now, one after the other, still have to que, but you dont go into the car park, you stay on the long straight and go through a gate.

Think I'd rather save up for an RMA track day there.
