Sheefa Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Just won this for being one of the Top Sales people at work. Looks absolutely fantastic. I'm off to the F1 in Valencia 2 weeks before as part of the previous challenge prize so should be a good month! http://www.palmersport.com/invitation/zurich-insurance-palmersport-event-2011.aspx Check the Forumla Jaguar oput at bottom of page Greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I did this a few years ago, one of the best days out I've ever had The single seater is hard work, but very rewarding when you get it right, the Clio corners in a way that defies belief, and the 4x4 course includes a see-saw which is a lot of fun We had to drift 350zs instead of the M3, which I took to well (probably due to driving a Supra), came 3rd in that out of about 60 people which I was happy with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsons76 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I worked here as senior instructor for four years a while ago. Its the only place in the country where you can drive the cars as fast as you can. Most of the other circuits don't let you go as hard. You will have a good day.

ozz Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I too have done one of these - most awesome day ever. And yes...you are encourage to go as fast as you can - I had the instructor screaming at me 'go go go, don't you pressing the effing brake pedal, floor it" that was on the jp1s iirc. You are drained after a few laps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Oh, and a perfect finish to my day there was passing a bright orange Mclaren F1 GTR on the way out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 The Palmer Jaguar is a development of my Zeus race cars for corporate usage. They even did a few road cars. Heavier, bigger diameter wheels, and less sophisticated suspension, but still a very rapid tool with more than adequate downforce. Your Supra will be boring after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobbeh Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 There was one of those Palmer Jaguars on my last track day at Bedford autodrome, they were very rapid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheefa Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Cheers all. Apparently a source tells me that they are also undertaking some Mclaren MP4-12C advanced testing on the day. I am so damn excited. Chris - have you been spinning your Zeus in the wet recently?? :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 No, neither Zeus has been out this year. One's in many pieces, the other is now freshly painted yellow, and awaiting some chassis fettling as it is still in the truck as it finished the last outing about a year ago, save for it's new body work colour from bare black carbon. Get some photos please, especially of the McLaren, if you can, lovely car!! Have a good day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted June 13, 2011 Author Share Posted June 13, 2011 That looks stunning Chris. Will post up vids and footage here. I saw a Trade Plate Mclaren go through Knowle the other day in Blue/Orange. Stunning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Wow. That's really very yellow. I went on a Palmer day about 12 years ago - it was fantastic. I got to drive loads of different metal and it was a real kick start to get the Tiger and do some track days. Have a great time with it.
