Aiming to do the Apex day later in the month. Javelin have added a blyton the day after on Sunday too.
I only have 3 federals atm. Meant to order 2 for the back but due to getting to the bottom (trying to) of an electronic fault only ordered one. ££! :sad1:

Yes mate she's back to her best :happy2:

Blyton have added a new shorter section to their track now, not sure which one will be in use for us on Saturday. Looks a tad more interesting. It misses out Ushers on the shorter track which is my favourite corner as it has adverse camber and makes the back end let go. :driver:

I've used the shorter section a few times in the past and its pretty good. It's nice for a bit of variation. :happy2:

Enjoyable watch :smiley: :popcornsoda:
-
I didn't realise it was anti-clockwise. Nice change.
Some good little technical bits from Trubshaws to Ump, that'll sort out the men from the understeering boys!

top day with TC,SteveP and Neil :happy2:
my car survived apart from 2 front tyres, nearside tore up on inside edge pretty quickly and didnt want to risk not getting home.
otherwise brakes and remap were just fine :jumpmove:
trying out some new Goodyear F1's tomorrow.
Continental SC5 review to follow as well.

Nice photos. Did you see a light blue Mk1 Vauxhall Astra going round?
-
we did :congrats: fantastic retro , had us talking up the Mk1 GTE.
Seemed to handle really well and was quick through the corners. looked like it could easily handle even more power :evilgrin:

A mate of mine owns it and I must admit not all is as it seems. Its a MK1 Astra shell on on an Impreza chassis. This includes the engine and running gear. He is known for making up crazy projects like this.

Hi John, I had a great day up to a point :confused: not sure what the problem is yet, its at KPM.
Thanks for your help mate, Who would have thought that Lay By was the Dogging hot spot for all of Lincolnshire!!!
