Any OPL's on in July? Looking forward to the 9th June now

 

[.GAZ.]

No idea mate! You'll need to look on KH, TS and SIDC.

Cracking deal on Opentrack for Monday 26th.

http://s468803703.initial-website.co.uk/knockhill-1/

£99 for a 8hr OPL with tuition, snacks and drinks included. Gutted I'm away!!!

 

[.GAZ.]

My two mates went up today for the 8hr OPL.. Didn't end well lol.





Lost a wheel just before the hairpin.. Don't think they checked their wheelnuts all day lol.

 

[mccabe172]

Nasty, just checked my emails and got the opentrack deal gutted I am off to Austria.

What happened with clio above?

 

[.GAZ.]

Inexperience. Boy hadn't checked his wheel nuts all day. It's a pal of mine.

 

[rctempire]

Looks lucky escape could have been worse glad all ok.

How much fuel do you guys normally use on a day up there? As purely I have no idea.

 

[MG cup]

^^thats an awesome deal but also a car breaker. First 8hr I have heard of tbh.

 

[Djw John]

About a tank per 150-170 miles Adam for me

 

[MG cup]

Aye I usually rinse a full tank and a 30 litre jerry can in a 4hr OPL.

 

[mccabe172]

I ve done an 8hour at cadwell and the clio survived but I d checked, bled and topped up everything before the day and then had to re do afterwards.

That is bad luck for the lad in the picture but good that no one hurt. Well part from someone's wallet!

Unlucky with the wheel, hope the damage ain't too bad!

Tbh, nothing to do with luck, just inexperience.

Same thing nearly happened to me on my first track day, learnt that lesson quick and now check wheel bolt torques after every session on track.

 

[.GAZ.]

Yep, just inexperience! He'll know now haha!

 

[CallyTeee]

That actually made me chuckle ford boy with volvo engine

 

[calum6r4]

What's the deal with those of us not so up for risking the car on track then, I take it it's OK to just turn up for a wee look?

Quite tempted to head up from Glasgow in a bit, time and probably weather dependant!
