Ok i loved it, first time on track. didn't have a clue what i was doing. Every single on of you scared the living shit outta me when i checked my mirrors.

Car felt like it was going to roll over every corner and was 3 wheeling sometimes.

Managed to overtake the s1 1.1 though :D

Need new tyres and front pads and discs now.

Sorry bout being so slow ;)

respect given twice

1. taking your car on track proves you dont need eleventy billion bhp
2.observing your mirrors and letting others though

glad you enjoyed it cant remember where i passed you thou i remeber seeing the indicator on,

thanks mate, i was more worried about getting in the way of everyone and maybe hitting something so i was glued to my mirrors and blind spot when i could. Think you passed me a couple times :D

think i passed ya coming out of the turn on the main straight going down to the hairpin

Yeah i think you passed me then :)

I was behind the blue GTi (Fuzzy, or Sheepy?) that was behind you at first. Hehe. Fair play to taking it out on track mate, just proves that you dont need a fast car out there, end of the day its not actually a race, so just cause you didnt annihilate everyone doesnt mean you didnt have fun.

Passenger ride would be cool in the future :)

Yeah. If i thought i was going to be "racing" everyone i wouldn't have gone on track. The best bit was when i caught up behind the other 1.1 and was trying to get past :D can't wait till i get something more track worthy :)

fair play to the both of you, even though some people say it doesn't matter about engine size - it does take balls to put a 1.1 on the track!

but no-body seemed to bat an eyelid that two 1.1's were on, so i'm pretty sure ill be there next year haha

fred
24-06-2008, 11:25 PM

Ahhh nice one! Does anyone perhaps have a pic of me? Would be nice :)

But yeah, my eyes were glued on the mirrors, and sometimes, I had to retake the racing line otherwise I would have gone off the track! Bloody good fun though

check your passenger side front wheel mate me and raz were expecting it to fall off at one point it seemed to be wobbling that much


just watched the vid to see where i passed ya


on the inside out of a corner hehe

nippy car ya got there mate i kept having probs with gears and missed getting it into a few so never got a good chance to be right with ya down the main straight




PS. nobody should buy fuel from that station down the road on the roundabout
i put 20quid in today when it had ran out and instantly my car felt more responsive so they must be selling some right shite

leeds106
25-06-2008, 11:20 AM
