course u can turn up, but they will direct u into the public car park rather than the club stand that's all as you won't have the club display pass on show.

Driving Miss Daisy doesn't need launch control. My good friend Carl assures me it's overrated. :smiley:
Does yours have launch control for Milltek to try? :laugh:

It definately is over rated. It will no doubt work better on something with 4WD but not a FWD car.
I think Miltek should be allowed to demonstrate the sound of the exhaust with a couple of "launches" :evilgrin:

I'm not a pussy like you, my LC was tested by Jim recently :evilgrin:

Yes but you have 4WD :P

Lee do you still have that ticket Iam hoping to be coming along to this but it is all going to be last minute with a few things I have got on.

Also just a quick one, how much are you all paying for the day on the track, is it six sessions? Cheers.

Last year you could pay by session on the day, worth checking with autometrix it's the same
-
No mate club stand is full at the mo.
You've always been allowed to buy indivudual sessions on the day but it all depends on how many pre paid punters there are. As wigit says give Sally @ Autometrix a buzz to see what the score is for this weekend.
-
Already told lee it doesn't look like I'm going to make it as was ill over the weekend and went to Drs today who said it's labyrinthitis. Hoping the Dr was overselling it but my pass may be available (if i can remain upright long enough to post it to someone anyway) :-(

Nice reply :fighting:
Lee has put a lot of effort into arranging the club stand and paid (out of his own pocket) to post out the passes, so a little respect to him and the forum won't go amiss.
-
Of course I realise that, it was supposed to be a sarcastic comment. Ive met Lee a few times and I hope that he takes it the right way. I don't see any disrespect to the forum in what I said either. :confused:
My pass is still up from grabs, if anyone wants it PM me ASAP so I can send it out :happy2:

My detailing session has been re-arranged till august, so bar'ing a earthquake or typhoon, I shall be there :happy2:

Making my final desision this evening with the latest weather forecast.
Its a long way to drive to stand in the rain.If its light rain, im still coming but if its forecasting bucket loads of rain then its not worth the long trip.

I'll be there between 8 and 9. :happy2:

Doesnt look like the 200 will be coming out 2 play :( sadly i cant drive two cars and cant find anyone covered on insurance to drive either one so ill just be bringing the golf along!

Hope its not raining too much. There's just nowhere to hide in Combe. Gotta go though. I'm under orders from my 8yr old !
Chris.

Guys - Really sorry but something has comeup and I cant make tomorrow now :sad1:
Hope the weather holds out!

I'm out aswell, Simons post earlier is about bang on :sad1:
I'm not gonna blow £50 in fuel to get absolutely soaked...
Sorry Lee, but it's along way to come to be sat in the car from the wind and rain with my 8 year old son.
-
Let's hope the weather is better on October 8th!
-
Never mind chaps. Just seen Neil at Combe and checked our plot. We are on the right as u come into the paddock entrance. There is a bit of hard standing too for the track goers eg me and NeilM!
He's expecting 200 club members but prolly end up with 50 due to the dubious weather forecast.
Milltek already here with the Golf R!
-
Already here? Are you at CC?
-
Currently very wet in Wilts!
-
It's wet alright! Big deluge at 6am. Currently light drizzle. Having a full English cooked breakfast at the mo :party: before I get to the track for signing on. Don't think it'll be too busy but hopefully it'll clear up by mid day! Track might still be bit iffy tho!
-
Got a few things to do then ill be down about 1
-
4 cars on stand at mo with me and neilm parked up in hard standing track area. It is pissing it down and not much fun at all. Waiting till it dies down a bit before I head out in track!
-
Is it worth coming down?
-
Probably not Tara £10 to get in and not a lot of action at all club stands are rather empty.
But I can see some blue skies coming so by 1pm who knows might be nice! Track will still be very wet tho and I still
want to get a ride with jimbo in the JKM Octy
-
Im going to come anyway, bit of rain wont hurt anyone!
-
Well I'm back home! Day started with a deluge but finished with blue skies and a dry track! :driver:
My thanks to Weston, Hedge, Chris Ellis, Ian Mac (Roc Central) for turning up despite the weather (it was much better in the afternoon). Tara and Simonp turned up later when the rain cleared.
Good to see SteveP and NeilM enjoying some track action in their track toys. Well done to Neil for making the Redline togger throw up on his first track assignment. :signLOL:
And big thanks to Kate, Keith, Jim and Nick @ JKM for providing excellent passenger rides to myself and others and for a very good cause! :happy2:
Did 3 sessions in my car but the stock 345mm discs really didn't like continuous heavy braking so a brake solution is in order me thinks.
-
Lee are you on standard pads?
-
Yup put in new discs and pads last month but the combo really didn't like today's work. Jim had some trick Ferodo pads in his car and they were working ok on 345mm discs. The brake judder was getting worse the more laps I did! They're ok now tho once cooled down
-
I would say overall it was a good day even after a good soaking this morning.
Enjoyed seeing some faces, old and new, and believe it or not I have a touch of sunburn. :ashamed:
I must admit to feeling sorry for JKM and some of the other stall holders as the lack of people was painful to see.
The JKM Octy and Mk3 Golf spent all day lapping the track, wet or dry, putting some serious machinery to shame. :congrats:

DaveB is selling some TTRS 4 pots at for ok money at the moment (i think). I dont suppose 345mm brakes are designed for 320bhp to be thrown at it continuously :signLOL:

Thanks to Lee for booking the club stand despite the reduced numbers due to the weather :happy2:
As always good to see the normal faces and some new ones too.
Shame to see the Bora of Win on the back of the tow truck but glad the guys are OK as it looked pretty nasty :scared: :scared:

Posted by Tabs on UK-Mkivs
For those reading wondering what's going on - Well I've gone and earned my tyre wall badge Just after exiting old Paddock the car slid, managed to catch it quickly but it set up a nice tank slapper that resulted in a trip into the tyre wall. Combination of too fast for the conditions and me running out of talent. Main thing is both driver and passenger are unharmed and the car will live to fight another day. Just panel damage and a wee bit of other damage so we're confident it'll be back on the road in a few weeks.

Already pm'd Dave about them lol but honestly I think track days in the R is over. Hmmm

Absolutely....that's what I did when I sold my Edition 30....ran out of funds tp finnish it off (It needed another 5-6K!!)
Was there today running my white 2 litre 16v with my mate in his white A plater MK2 (He's Ex Tim Stiles when back in the good old days) Both have same spec cars.
Cheap as chips to run on track in comparison with MKIV/5 's...been there bought the t shirt!!
Great day in the pm....loads of track time too. Can't wait till October.

Good day overall, nice to meet some of you :happy2:

It was a good day despite the RAIN ! bit shy of me but I'll try and look for some of you next time for a chat. Spent plenty of time watching StevePs car going round. That suspension is absolutely what you need for track work. @ steve , it must give you so much confidence. Planted.
The yellow cupra r ! Apparently GT28 RS. Really quick.
Chris.

I'm thinking something old but 4WD and Booooost! Might just start a saving plan and put it all together next year. A Set of VWR 6 pots will buy the car so y not!! Strip it add some handling bits and should be good to go!
-
I had a great day there too, thanks to all involved.
The turnout was surprisingly good in the afternoon given the weather so that was nice to see and as it brightened up a fair few stayed right till the end.
I had a few laps out in the JKM Octy with Nick piloting and in the Milltek R, I'm sure the driver plays a huge part in the proceedings (and Nick is excellent) but the Octy just blew away the Golf at every opportunity which given the Golf's mechanical advantage and the conditions was a little surprising.
-
Gutted i missed this, but 3 and a half hrs is a long trek just for a cple of dry hrs in the afternoon and a lot of money on fuel etc.. Plus I really wanted my seats and harnesses which I am now getting Tuesday Wednesday next week, so will hopefully get them sorted then next week depending when I can get time and kev can fit me in to fit them. Were you running any decent tyres in the wet Steve or nothing special? Neil were you on the R1Rs and if so how did they fair?

Geordie, I had my spare wheels with 888's and could have used them on the last few session but kept the R1R's on, definitely didnt feel the same grip when hot but OK in the wet, although set up is a bit hard for wet track. :happy2:

Oh it's was you behind in your Edition 30....nice car...loved my Edition but couldn't bring myself to rag it around like the MK2....that's why I went back to a 16V for track use and the additional 5-6k investment needed for track.
Went on a couple of trackdays in the Edition running APR spec engine Clubsports and inters but it needed a lot more ie clutch BIG brakes, Diff, Intercooler etc to get into the MK2 times.....at least the MK2 is alot cheaper for this work but the Edition 30 was great on road and track but needed alot more to put that 330+ hp down on the tarmac.
The TSR built yellow Cupra was mighty though.
