A few people?! If you hit someone on the straight, when accelerating you should be off and not allowed back out. Accidents happen but that is appalling.
I heard a few?!? Maybe not.
Yeah there's no excuse really for that, thing looked like a nail in the passing.
Take head.....No messing.....Track days are a serious game so drive safely or this could happen to you.
172 cup, Impreza P1

Honestly, spat out my corn flakes watching that this morning. Absolute class! :rofl:
Lol. Just lol.
My first attempt at editing.
Rides them a charm, n/s/f geo will be out again I'm sure.
Never its just soft....You need to go quick enough Gaz to do that lol
thats what happens when you overdrive, no fun In cruising round. For reference it's just over 80mph apex at Duffus and 70ish wet to give you an idea, it looks slower than it is really.As I have said before, ARB full hard and a bit of trail braking works a charm to get this boat around without too much understeer.
You knows it, I was waiting for him to stick it up the inside somewhere but just let him past in the end.
Not good enough track etiquette?

That last video is awesome, Hero
Embarrassing tbh.
Was expecting something like that from 'the clique' another one that's up for a Darwin Award.
It's up to our selfs how we have fun on track, just try not to endanger anyone other than yourself.
Brilliant. The 'clique'? If the 'clique' consists of people that don't drive erratically and are respectful on trackdays so they don't potentially wreck other people's cars/days, then yeah I must be in the 'clique'.
'The clique' has nothing to do with track driving although you would think most of you are police officers the way you harp on.
Show me where I potentially wrecked people's cars? I backed off through the yellow flags, stopped for reds. The potential is always there for an accident on track (especially at KH as your let away with murder which is what makes it good) If someone wants to get a nats ball width from your back bumper or not let you past (an invitation to tail them) then it's their choice, I'm willing to do so and I don't mind others doing so as long as there's some sort of responsibility about it.
Theres a lot of close running that happens at KH but I still stick to the rules of the day.

I span it on an outlap once at Oulton Park, lol.
You mean that's not what he's doing?!
They are Federal RS-R's with loads of life left. Its just the soft suspension and RARB that makes it lively. You will see I have two steering inputs at Duffus (first corner) on turn in when I slide, the car rolling that I catch which then starts the slide then I catch the slide itself. It helps to get the tail out at KH, granted not that much but its just got lowering springs so I'll live with it.
When wet it was lethal, real greasy with the cold morning, oil down and then a downpour of rain. TBH they were out performing various tyres and I would say it was one of the quicker cars in that session when wet. I'm just driving a little to hard on them, if I cut it back a bit then they're sure footed.
My first and last I hope , It was a joke tbh but don't want to make a habit.
The incident happened in front of me (ph1 spinning) on the first lap so I knew what it was, when the waved went down and stationery flags went up and they were clear of the car it was safe to go again, they were just waving yellow at the bottom cause I was going sideways through the top.
No but I have about rallying if someone would pay.
:slap:

Cheers, I like to drive my cars as they should be. Maybe, there is a few turbo/charged 106's up this way..... it was a good bit quicker on the straights than me and I was passing other 106's easily.
Crazy, i wish i could say the same. Its well worth the trip as others that have come from down south have said how good it is when speaking to them, race drivers love it......or at least the ones that can drive it, Plato not included. Make a weekend of it as the TD's are so cheap you can afford to.
Cheers Liam, will have to get you out on a wet day and scare you haha.
I still remember you saying "you brake a LOT later than i do there" in a worried voice, I lol'd to myself at the time. Believe it or not standard callipers with good pads and ABS can brake later but these callipers when fitted with better pads will brake later more consistently for longer and have better pad wear.
Also this car will be going back to near standard over the coming months, things like half leather/alacantra interior, xenons, full suspension refresh, low mileage gearbox will be staying on the car so if anyone wants an driven but very well mechanically cared for car then get in contact.
Sold this car today to a good friend to run as a winter car
Its been a brilliant little track car to me over this summer after rebuilding basically the whole car earlier in the year, it will be going back to standard this week with a few little bits left on so it he can enjoyed like they should.
I'll be sad to see it go but can only have one track car going forward.

Back to the job in hand

Exactly, its just been a distraction although not a bad one. I had to sell or split it before I booked another TD haha.

That mean you'll be focusing on race car?
Sneaky name change three me there for a second!!

Bags a shot

That's the plan mate

Saves confusion with the difference to my email spelling.
Early next year hopefully, depends what kind of winter we get as the board will be out before long which is another distraction and it will stop testing if it drags on.
Aye you can have a shot no bother round Knockhill
