Just the morning for me, rained on 2nd run and I blew an intercooler pipe off on 3rd run. Got the better of a Evo8-MR which was nice. The new GTR was in a different league!!

A good mate of mine has just had delivery of his new GTR. He has read (in the small print) that if the car is taken on to any drag strip or race track in Europe his warranties become void as Nissan will know the car has been raced from the global positioning software in the car.

I wonder if the driver of the GTR is aware of that at Brands ?

Can I just say the Yoko's Parada's were amazing, when it rained they still felt great. They get a bad press sometimes and most cars are set up different. They hardly broke traction but then I was not pushing silly hard. My friend slowed down alot with he's Toyo R888's.

Yeah, that will be good Tony.
My life is normally pretty hectic and I miss out on some track days as I only learn of them afterwards !.

I will gladly join you on a Brands track day mate.

Interesting comment on your tyres as I was just about to buy a set of triple 888's ?

I know we are not meant to, but did you time any of your dry / wet laps ?
