Well what a day.
.
.
Its been awesome.
.
definatly a trial by fire.
Got to brands it was chucking it down, done all the normal signing on etc
Rain stopped but very wet out on track.
.
Went out for sighting lap.
.
instantly noticed the extra grip i had over the mk1 in the wet coming out of druids.
.
Then out for first session.
.
couple of sideways moments but nothing too bad, felt very good, back end was a little loose.
Had a good chat with an instructor when i came in and dropped the rear tyres a few PSI
Back out again, the track was now in greasey stage, but car felt good pulled really well and gripped enough to upset the hyudai coupe race cars that were out testing.
.
.
had a couple more sessions before lunch, noticed the camera was dying so didn't record any of the last 2 sessions,
Then luch.
.
.
THE SUN
, it came out!!!
and my, that little mk3 is awesome.
.
.
handled brilliant over the last few session, just building up confidence with it, building up the pace
Loads of grip to play with
The whole car was faultess, never missed a beat brakes never faded, although they did take some warming up
Last stint i had a great time playing with an elise for a few laps before traffic come in between
I must say brands can get a little
"busy" so i am really looking forward to bedford in a couple of weeks as that is not so busy.
.
will upload the vids tonight, plenty of proper race cars out, we had a 355 race car in garage next to us
couple of pics i took
hopefully pete K will have a couple of it on track in the sighting lap
Will definatly be looking at larger ARB's and someform of suspension at some point
