Don't forget you can do all the forms before you get there to save time :)

Red Baron 05-08-2013 08:57 AM

If I get home in time and the weather looks ok I'll try and get up and probably bring the boy with me, was going to bring the Scoob to work and head straight there but the weather wasn't looking too good last night so decided to car share instead.

Anger 05-08-2013 09:55 AM

Course it's ok... Not sure about the dry bit tho

iain85 05-08-2013 10:21 AM

See you all later chaps! Can't wait!

kartingsteve 05-08-2013 11:01 AM

Good luck guys hope weather hold for you, be thinking of you by the pool.

Really wanted to book up for this to run the VX but with work and family issues it was just not possible. Enjoy the day guys, have to book up somehting else before the summer goes. I was thinking about a Saturday at Bedford as that wont mess around with work.

Bolesroor 05-08-2013 02:02 PM

Just had a down pour about 10 minutes ago, now doing a sun dance for you all :ok:

Steve_PPP 05-08-2013 02:34 PM

Already at brands as we stayed nearby last night - claire found a nice hotel and spa deal so been for a swim and a spot of lunch just down the road. Circuit got soaked about half hour ago but the sun is shining and its pretty much dry already :)

Anger 05-08-2013 03:13 PM

Good to see the weather forecast spot on lol

Bytes 05-08-2013 08:55 PM

Just had a great time :) Good to see everyone again and meet some new people too. HUGE thanks to Big 'E' and Steve PPP for taking me on as a passenger :worthy:

My heart's just about stopped racing.... :10:

majorscooby 05-08-2013 08:57 PM

Good turn out guys and you all did rather well despite the downpour , nice to see you all for the odd chin wag shame I couldn't stay till the end.

Red Baron 05-08-2013 09:33 PM

Wish I could have made it but was late home from work so wasn't worth me coming up in the end.

No probs,

It was a good evening,

I certainly took a gamble with the 888s and was certainly surprised how well they work even in those slippery wet conditions, clearways was certainly challenging...

We had a couple of minor incidents but everyone survived with very little or no damage..

It was also good meeting some new peeps and putting faces to names..:five:

Bolesroor 05-08-2013 09:41 PM

Was really nice to see everyone again especially most of the Ring trip crew :five:

Special thanks to both Steve_ ppp and Simon for those laps,hats off to you both,you are very talented in your respective scoobs :drive::worthy:

and finally Charlie hope the car is ok and clean by Saturday :smile: :polish:

B33fy 05-08-2013 09:43 PM

Flying visit, good to catch up with Granby and meet Steve and Big E again, nice to see some good on track action going on, got home before it rained again which was a bonus :D

simba 05-08-2013 09:43 PM

Good to see everyone this pm

I will be giving it a good clean and I might even sort the small matter of having no brakes!
Entering paddock hill bend at 130mph with no brakes at all is not what I expected to happen.
Im ordering pads , lines and fluid ASAP
See u Saturday for more of the same life or death action haha.

Moley_WRX 05-08-2013 10:03 PM

Had a fantastic afternoon and evening, massive thank you to everyone involved.

555_Si 05-08-2013 10:13 PM

i started findiing the limit of my cars setup, i think some 2 piece discs and some geo. tweeks on the suspension. tyres started going off a bit, so i think i must have something not quite right.

will bring an infrared tyre thermometer next time.

SamSTI 05-08-2013 10:34 PM

Absolutely amazing afternoon and evening, Thanks to everyone involved.

Some proper quick cars we have on here.

Managed to have a cheeky little spin on the first corner lol but had an awesome time none the less.

Steve_PPP 05-08-2013 10:59 PM

Thanks to everyone for coming, great evening of track fun. The weather did its best to spoil it at the start with rivers running across the circuit in many places but thankfully it dried up. It was nice to see such a great turnout of scoobs in all of the sessions :ok:

Charlie - glad you avoided much damage when going off at paddock, your 4 wheel drifting out of Clearways right in front of me in the wet was awesome :D

Ginola 05-08-2013 11:36 PM

Thanks for Organizing guys,

Had a brilliant time, will post some of Wanda's snaps up tomorrow.

Really enjoyed the challenge of the changing conditions.
Watching 2 people spin off at Paddock in my rear view mirror at the start of the first taster session was... a little off putting! I think Wanda enjoyed her passenger laps?;)

I hope you didn't put your Dad off Sam, he seemed to have a big grin on his face ;)

Really good to put faces to some more names :)

Charlie 05-08-2013 11:44 PM

Cheers Steve I was thinking I was doing quite well up until the small issue of stopping :(

Cracking day roll on the next one hopefully in the dry!!

drakesnow 05-08-2013 11:46 PM

Seriously fun time great to see everyone out and nice to meet everyone! I'd like to do another day or so in August yet if anyone is up for it :)

Scooby_Greg 06-08-2013 07:51 AM

Thanks for organising - it was a fun evening and great to see everyone. A lotus with worn rear semi slicks may not have been the best choice in hindsight but it made it fun with a very fine line between on the limit and over the limit :drive:

I should have bought the scoob...

ScoobyStu 06-08-2013 09:38 AM

Glad you all had a good time, any pics and vids? :-)

Charlie- hope it's not too serious and you get it sorted ASAP.

Anger 06-08-2013 10:15 AM

Deffo got the track bug again

Had a awesome time last night and was good to see you all, sideways down paddock hill was interesting

Good to catch up with you again Mike and see the V-Storm, left Brands and it started to rain but i just had to flick the wipers on :yeah:

Hongkongfooi 06-08-2013 07:52 PM

Great evening apart from the half hour monsoon which made it look really tricky for you all. Wish I had taken the wagon on track now so may sneak another evening session before the spa trip.

As always good to catch up with all and sundry:hurrah:


Oh and congrats to the ppp's again:yeah:
