Because I find it boring as a circuit. Snetterton 300 is more challenging

Sti mayhew 15-03-2017 07:54 PM

Snetterton is brilliant can't wait to go back and do it again, as it was damp and greasy last time for me. Brands is a great track though

Was it the full 300 you did or the 200?
I'm off to Bedford Gt on the 27th March:)

No ,it looks a variety of surfaces. I'd imagine it's fairly dirty surface to which should be a challenge:)

I did Woodbridge, its ok but you can almost get lost if the circuit is not laid out well. Lots of bushes growing through the tarmac to avoid. Quite Top Gear esk with the hangers and stuff in the background. Not as good as some of the established tracks. Snet I love but always seem to have a car problem when I have been there. Rockingham is ace as well - not tried Bedford but want to.

V keen for a track day soon just need to prep the BM for its first outing.

Woodbridge Javelin Sprint - me in S3.....

Bolesroor 15-03-2017 10:04 PM

I'd be for some twitching :grin:

drakesnow 16-03-2017 10:53 PM

I'm likely to come down and say hello :).

Steve_PPP 17-03-2017 08:19 AM

I said back in January that i planned to sort a trackday before the Ring trip but its just not happened yet for me. Scoob needs a few bits and haven't got round to them yet (although I did place a couple of orders yesterday for bits :))

I'd love to do this but can't do that week, doh.

scooby doo 17-03-2017 09:20 AM

I was trying to aim out on track but keep having set backs on the car so far grrrr

Ginola 17-03-2017 01:42 PM

Could well be up for this if I can get all that's needed on car sorted in time,

(yes there are still 1 or 2 bits I want done!)

Moley_WRX 17-03-2017 10:14 PM

I'm completely flexible if a different date would be better.

BIG"E" 18-03-2017 05:36 PM

Well thats all sorted..:doubleup:

All your info:

A Typical day will run like this:

Signing On (7:30-8:30)

Complete and sign the drivers indemnity form, driving licence check and allocation of instruction session if requested.


Noise Testing (8:00-8:30)

Before taking part in any track day, your vehicle is subject to a noise test. Please see the noise testing regulations to see how this is measured.


Safety Briefing (8:30 - 8:45)

This will cover everything you need to know about the day from rules of the event, through to car preparation, driving techniques, ettiquette and circuit information.


Familiarisation/Sighting Laps (9:00)

Familiarisation laps are carried out behind a pace car and give you a chance to experience each bend at a reduced speed and note the live marshal post and circuit conditions before unrestricted track time begins.


Track Time Begins (9:00 - 17:00)

Events will typically follow one of two formats with an hour break for lunch. Open Pitlane - you can go on and off circuit as you choose. Or sessions - vehicles are grouped according to the users track experience. Sessions are typically 20 minutes on rotation. It's time to put your vehicle through its paces. Warm your tyres, start off slow and build up your pace up throughout the day. There is no rush

Bolesroor 18-03-2017 06:26 PM

Thanks :five:

Full 300, December the 8th they were doing a last minute deal, all day open pit and got it for £49!!
Amazing just a shame it was so greasy for front wheel drive, great for a quick learner to see if I like the track and I would go back asap.

Bolesroor 26-04-2017 04:13 PM

How did it go? :ninja:
Sorry Ian I couldn't make it but had to have mot and cambelt done on the blob as was pressed for days off.

Glad it was a good one but a shame for Rob ,what's the noise limit at Brands ?

The Handbrake 26-04-2017 05:54 PM

Was a lovely day and all the cars looked and sounded great out there. Rob had issues with noise as all Scoobies do so he went for a few passenger laps instead.

Photos later tonight and videos no doubt whilst eating the last two slices of lemon drizzle cake.

Thank you so much Ian for organising.

scotty 26-04-2017 05:57 PM

Wait a min Rob got black flag for excess noise isnt he running a quiet exhaust aka Miltek how did he manage that . Thanks Wanda youve now just put me in the mood for lemon drizzle cake lol .

A lack of any cats or silencers between the turbo and back box and a 100mm tail pipe resulted in passing the static easy and blipping 100db on a couple of full hearted drive by's...

I got quite a few laps in before they stopped me, and I could have done something whilst there to help with my issues but chose to leave things be and enjoy some passenger laps with Dave and take some photos.

I was pleased with the car though, thoroughly enjoyed the day and am already looking at rectifying my noise issues along with booking my next track day, will try actually doing a full day this time!
