Maybe they are having a bigger first cut, instead of just to 8? That would be good :)

:cool: More practice time. Hopefully I'll make all of it this time without the car catching fire. :rolleyes:

I'm bringing overalls though, just in case.

Same here. Im hoping my car wont fail again the night before and i stupidly drive down to silverstone anyway, to wait for Option to open at 10:30 the next day. Get it fixed, get back to the track by 11:30 ish, get 4 laps in and then have it fail again.. The AA wouldnt take me home either, got in at 3am. Mat got in at 5am! Ahahaha, drifting is ace :)

9.00 practice. does that mean at 9.00 there will be cars on track practicing, or that's when registration, drivers briefing etc takes place?

doesn't matter for me, i'll be there at 9 anyway :D

Mmm, burbly....

[sidewaysrob]

OMFG! I don't believe it.
It looks as though I'm going to have to miss Round 3
:censored: :annoyed: :cry:

My MR2 has an alternator out. I have a replacement, but I just looked at it and there is no way that my gimp knowledge will be able to do the replacement myself. Worse still, I can't afford the local garage to replace it for me.

Anyone in West Sussex fancy giving me a hand???? :Plug:

didnt they put the driver briefing to 8.30 purely so that people could actually get out on track for 9am sharp? or did i dream that?! :confused: think actual practice starts at 9 and there may be late sign in for those who turn up after? needs checking tho i think...

Correct timetable is the one on the UKD1 forum:
9:00 - 12:00 Practice session Passenger allowed at this time (£20 with a friend driving) or passenger rides available with Kiki ( £5- sign up at ticket entrance)
12:00 - 13:00 Lunch break Food and drink available in the Paddock Diner
13:00 - 13:30 Display car awards Awards for- cleanest car (in and out), most highly engineered and the best looking car
13:30 - 14:30 Clubman competition Beginner or less experienced drifters
14:30 - 16:30 Professional competition More experienced or advanced drifters
16:30 - 17:00 Trophies awarded As well as prizes from our sponsors including HKS vouchers, 76 racing fuel, Playstation 2 and Avon tyres

The Pro competition is two hours long so they can have more cuts- do it the Japanese way.

[PulsatingStar]

Almost tempting to go pro if more people are going to be let through the cuts.

Probably wont make any difference to me :wack:

Hey Rob

I'll do the alternator for ya mate if I've got some spare time and can combine the visit with a trip to Bridges on a scrapyard pikeying session...

Very busy at the moment though. Whilst awaiting rear axle parts for the 'Rolla, I have indulged in a £100 crashed E30 325i which is taking a fair while to straighten out (avec tree, tow poles, rope and a big Volvo). I'm trying to get this done before Saturday so I can run in a true low budget drift-shitter production....

[Bon Bon]

Ho-ho-ho niiiiice!!

Crashed 325i, me likey. As long as the chassis isn't actually twisted?!?!

I want a go!! I drove a 325i the other day, wicked little cars.

[Mitch]

Should be more practice time rather than 2 hours for the pro comp, IMHO
