I don't feel so bad now about my times and 8th place! as a lot do look very suspect .. Shame as It was good event, hopefully it will happen again next year with some proper timing gear and maybe the usually curburough start instead like everyone else does and maybe earlier in the year if possible?

you cant have proper timing gear on a track/fun day . it would turn the event into a race day doubling the insurance cost for the day and meaning they would have to have fire and ambulance in attendance as well. which is why if your court on a public track day timing your laps u get told off

I think Greg is annoyed they didnt even write his reg down, and only took one time tbh.
Agreed it can never be taken seriously, I never want to get serious tbh as it may ruin the fun of track days for me. That circuit is far too small for me to take seriously either way.
The best I do is check videos for a rough laptime and see what other cars can run on the same track.

I finally have the photos back from our crazy track day, and you can find them in here.... https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=5 ... 6165D8!827There are some great shots, and they haven't been too stingy with the resoultion, but if you want any high res or non watermarked versions, just give me a shout and i'll forward you their details. Finally, I have reviewed the lap times and this is the final data... not much has changed, but I've really looked at the data and only found one mis-placed lap time. You can see the reviewed lap times here: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=3 ... 724232!271Once again guys, thanks for coming... I had a great day! See some of you at the NEC.  Stace

Quote: i am a telly tubby fat b@stard but shocked at how much of a mess i really am At least the car looked good Greg (Or was I supposed to say ' You look great love'?) Dan, did you come off/stay off the throttle to correct that oversteer? They have great direction change so by prompting it, youll get it
