Excuse the pun, but I've lost track :lol: of the days I have done, as I'm not as meticulous as you Nigel but it must be in excess of 20 now. You should add the breakfast runs as they are almost as quick, well ours are :wink:

The title effectively says what this would involve in just seven words but the planning required and eventual road book will be major challenges and require some considerable team work and support from our members along the route. I don't even know if it can be pulled off!

It's all well and good getting your car to take the corners well but the limiting factor, even with standard suspension and tyres, is keeping your arse in the seat so you can maintain control - especially if you have leather seats. :roll:

This is where the CG-Lock really comes into it's own....

Hey All,

Asking for a bit of advice here... I've had a bit of a search and can't find any specific track day tyre discussion anywhere - please point me in the right direction if it exists and I'm being an idiot).

I've looked at the obvious choices in the 'not horrific' budget which are:

- you don't want to be hampered by it
- all your mates switch theirs off
- it would be gay not to

Firstly, we've already identified that the...

Just a thought. All that are new to the track experience may find some valuable information in the art of setting your tyre pressures on the day. I know it shows setting up a fwd car but the principal is the same.

Hi everyone,

Had my 07plate 228bhp for just over a month now. Had new tyres (mid range, Avons, not incredible I know but better than ditchfinders), getting the D585 coils, leads and NGK sparks fitted this weekend and having full oil change too.

I've always wanted to take my own car on a track day...

With Paul posting up a quick review and info about the keyfob cam and some of his own YouTube footage, I thought I'd post up about the details of how its mounted and where to get it from. Recent track day rules at MSV organised events (we go to a lot of these) prohibit the use of suction mount...

Having suffered oil temps of 116 degrees in an ambient of 20 degrees recently when 5-10 minutes into a track session I decided to see if there were any easy way to try and reduce the oil temp under these conditions. If I came off the power, the temps would drop noticeably within ~20 seconds, but...
