I stand corrected :) Have never done a track day but my first one is coming up 2 weeks today. Same circuit too so I hope Norris isn't there *grin*

 

Castle Combe for a first track day? Brave man :) Expect to be wondering exactly where you are on track, and use the cones they'll no doubt put out to find the turn in points, or I guarantee you'll be turning in miles too soon. Nasty place to have a big off, take care!!

 

Cheers Chris :) Will no doubt be taking it easy, if only for the sake of my non built engine!
You'll be fine. Just remember it's not a race.

Combe was my first trackday too. Japfest '05 - anyone remember the weather that year? ;)

 

 

 

(hint, most of the tents blew over and everyone got soaked)

why?

 

Works fine in GT racing, look at the British GT or even Le Mans where you have 2 classes of road cars and prototypes that make them look like they are standing still. The only difference is that they are all bloody good drivers and wouldnt make a school boy error like that.

 

There is up to 4 different classes in GT's, LMP1's LMP2's, GT1 and GT2. The difference between the fastest prototype and the slowest GT2 is nothing like the difference between a 600bhp Evo and a 130hp 106.

 

Hammond getting swiped by a Mosler in a 320d shows that wide performance disparities do not work.
