Eek that's quite a blowup! Some of those bits wanted to see daylight I guess...
-
jesus...thats just pt me off! haha!

Chungster, do you have a link I can swot up on... I may be able to come...not sure what to expect - never done a track event before so just want to be up-to-speed with the risks and any sensible precautions I may need to take.
Sorry to sound boring and sensible.. :grouphug:

The day is run in 15 min sessions, with around 12 cars max in each session.
Price is around £165, and you get 6 sessions. i tend to use 3 in morning and 3 in afternoon to give the car time to cool down.
You'll need a crash hat, or borrow one from Combe for £10 refundable deposit (i think)
sensible precautions:
car in perfect working order
car will be noise tested, but i don't think it'll be a problem for most GTI's, unless you're running straight thru de cat and big turbo!!!
make sure all fluids are topped up.
make sure all tyres are pumped up correctly (some people like to play about with pressures, but i don't bother and just make sure they're at manufacturers recommended levels)
make sure tyres have good tread, as you will lose a bit out on track!
and last but not least, just drive sensibly. its not a GP out there. The VW days tend to go well, and everyone gives each other room.
if you are coming along, i can always give you a passenger ride first thing to get u familiarised with the track.
Here's a clip from a private track day i did there with Neo.
Me in the Grey GTI, Neo in the Blue one.

....Let's hope the more scattered the better. If it carries on like now (wet) for the next few days, our chances of better weather improve.
However, there's no such thing as bad weather but just inappropriate clothes.

He's got form for the old "sneak up from behind" gag, you know Nicole?
I'd invest in some KY - you want to make it as painless as possible for when he kicks your back doors in.

I was at this today with my son, great day & quite a few pics! Got to look at quite a few ED30 models as I plan my purcsse early next year, however the RS4 boys did lead me astray as the avant could easily take the wife's wheelchair - though that might be stretching the requirement a bit far :grin:. Ended taking my 9 year old on the track fir the kids laps. Fantastic timeas we'd never done anything like that before - I did feel slightly red faced as I was the only non- audi/VW make of car on the track. I did however get the best view of the audi sport in action! :notworthy:
Regards, Kevin.
-
....
A Warm Welcome to the forum, Kevin!
Did you get to meet any of us today?
-
hehe nice one Steve! :happy2:
Nath's car sounds wicked (from inside and outside)
-
I did not Robin though purely my choice. My wife suffers from a chronic illness so the boy & I don't have much male time & I wanted to give my full attention to him for that day - though I did see you & your four piper :wink:. He had a ball on the kids lap as we 'chased' the audi sport in our diesel bmw on the corners - mr audi got a wagging finger from the marshalls but what a show to be following it for the 4 laps.
Regards, Kevin.
-
^^^^
Sorry to hear of your wife's suffering - A tough one but hats off to your efforts to get the most out of life in spite of adversity. I've been there myself with a son, but enough said.
And thanks for introducing yourself here anyway :happy2:
My 'four-piper' is quite famous! The VW05 RED plate helps.

I did not Robin though purely my choice. My wife suffers from a chronic illness so the boy & I don't have much male time & I wanted to give my full attention to him for that day - though I did see you & your four piper :wink:. He had a ball on the kids lap as we 'chased' the audi sport in our diesel bmw on the corners - mr audi got a wagging finger from the marshalls but what a show to be following it for the 4 laps.

Welcome Kevin. If I'd known 'other non-vag' cars were allowed on the track I would've taken Nicole out for a bit of tarmac fun!

^^^^
Usually CC are very strict about non-VAG cars on track and even being on display in the paddock! But it wasn't a very well attended day, so........
We all had a good time though. :happy2:
-
Non VAG cars were only allowed in the "Family" session behind the saftey car during the lunch break.
Apart from a couple of Porsche's, there were no other non VAG cars on track all day i believe.

Robin I think as it wasn't busy & a kids lap they didn't enforce the issue though we did get a few funny looks. I was stuck between the flip quattro sport and a kermit green rocco so the blue bm had a low profile! Didn't stop the traction control kicking in at the chicane though - I blame the sport for chasing after the R8 whenever a gap had appeared. We shall just have to see if we come in ED30 next time.
