Bedford Renaultsport evening video

[Jay Payne]

Firstly a BIG thanks to Tony Hunter who was my passenger/tutor for the evening. He made it so much more enjoyable and I learned alot. Top man! :star:

I was seriously bricking it when we got there but after the parade laps I started to fell calmer.

This video is kind of where I was come the end, around about a 2min 26sec lap I think. Getting more and more confident in the car everytime I went out. Im still not braking late/hard enough tho. But im still quite pleased with my first (proper) track run in the car which was brilliant and is so much faster than me.........

A one point he said brake and i just lifted.


He reckons we would of made it but i bailed and saved Mr Palmer from having to cut the grass round the back of the pits.

 

[Peperami]

Nice work... Is Bedford a good place for track virgins?

 

[Peperami]

Not sure if i can make it, but if i do will park in public carpark and bring lid?

Yes, fast with lots of run off chris.

 

[Jay Payne]

[Christopher]

Cheers.. i might look into the next one!

Something i've always wanted to do

Best track for 1st timers IMO. Very difficult to hit anything, good mix of corners, the tutors are very good. It's a bit featureless once you've done a few, but it's well surfaced and open. I'll be going as soon as possible, then try and get cadwell and donington in this year.

 

[Jay Payne]

Cadwell and Donington are on my to do list, Along with Oulton park

 

[Nafoff]

this may have to be my first spot to visit then when my car is ready and i can drive after the op
