will my plastic card bit be ok cos i still not got paper bit sorted

[markd]

as long as you prove you have a licence thats good enough mate

[loudandproud205]

thats ok never leave home with out the photocard bit lol

[leeds106]

track layouts looking a good one



is the main straight of the oval going to be broken up with coned chicanes though as i heard/read it was going to be to cut down on people reaching silly speeds or soemthing

[markd]

the main straight is NOT broken up until you hit turn one and you dive left into a chicane. You cannot do turn one on the oval as its too fast and dangerous in a road car.

[leeds106]

thats fine with me


i do hope noone is running standard pads or half decent brakes though cos once you enter that oval and go down the straight them brakes are gonna be well used to get slowed down for that chicane thats for sure



order them mintex pads now boys :)

Ps not implying thats a racing line

PPS when coming out of the pits, the cars will be coming in from your right into the chicane. Marshalls will wave drivers out.

good lad :)

i've been round it before tis a great track do feel sorry for anyone with standard pads and discs though they'll get raped big stylee

oh and is the passenger seat still free in your car mark? i fancy doing a few laps might aswell make it worth while and go round with you seen as mines not track friendly yet lol

[markd]

I think I mentioned this already but no harm in doing so again.

Only 7 slots left on 106oc session so log into www.frenchcarshow.co.uk/shop so grab one of the remaining sessions.

Do itttttt. Just dont try and drive too fast.

[markd]

still 6 slots - anyone else?

[Shell]

so its 5pound to be a passenger all day??

does that 5pound cover insurance?? or how would you have to go about it and is a helmet a must??

[markd]

£5 covers a passenger wristband all day. You need to sign on at sign on garages 35/36 like a driver

This is not personal insurance, it is the liability insurance for the track operator.

It is motorsport you don't get personal insurance as its your own risk.

[danvilla2]
