for those who havent been before or havent done a trackday this is a great place for a trackday with a good layout well organised and a LOT of fun :thumbs:

If its dry then i will be running my slicks yeah :nod: there a lot cheaper than road tyres :wack:

if its not dry though i have numerous options to try out, my 265 falkens on the back and something else on the front (its got kumho trakday tyres on the front at then moment :eek: not great in the wet) ive got 4 s14 wheels with p6000's on that can go on the back and get destroyed, i could have my 265/18's on the front and 205/16 on the back, that would make for interesting handling :D

im hoping though fingers crossed it will be dry as i wont to get a feel for the cars limits and be able to push it hard in the dry to give me some confidence in it :nod: , it was dry at elvington last february so fingers crossed :thumbs:


ben, as nike say, JUST DO IT ;)


carl just tell work your going to be sick that day :smash:
