would come along too, last time was awesome fun. but i think i'll save my next time until after the driver training course - its too expensive to do them too often!

in the meantime, i can keep my eyes open for a cheap set of alloys i can bung some track rubber on

I would but the car will most likely not be ready by then and definitely not run in enough for track work.

Haven't done a track day for years, but If you "novices" can give a real novice a wide birth, I'm tempted to book up, and stretch the legs of the old girl Saab and see how it performs on a track.

Man this is tempting

If my FMIC is here, fitted and mapped in time, then I will book it too.

Had some "breathing issues" coming back from the ring when I was over 130mph, so just another safety thing more than anything.

Know what you mean, i've only got a little scoop and no means of measuring the intercooler/intake temperatures so was just hoping for the best at 140mph

Just had to avoid any long runs at over 120 or so - was a case of quick blat, then back down to 80/90 for a while to cool down.

FMIC makes sense!

I did exactly the same thing. I had about 4 or 5 proper blats the whole weekend, then backed right down, just because of it.

I have been told that mine should be fine, but after the crap I went through, I won't chance it for the sake of a FMIC and a map tinker.

Have you thought about changing your scoop?

I considered a late booking but all sold out now

I need to get my hands on a spare set of alloys/tyres before booking up a track event really. So always another day. But my intention is to use my current scoob as a daily hack and get some track action in with it, so might see you guys at some coming events.

I am going down, but only watching.

Don't want to put the new one on the track yet, and don't want to kill the old one now that most parts are already sold!!!

Oi dont come & put the pressure on. MY other half gets scared at anything over 70mph. So i reckon she will only want to do a couple of laps. Once she's out I'm off for a proper blat. Paul Egerton {jaffa's mate} will be there in his Evo on the A.M session. Should be a giggle
