Is it still £189 for half a day? Also, can you just have a training session for an hour and pay for that without the whole day? Cheers

But I can't see that option anywhere, phone them perhaps? You can't have any tuition without having booked any track time, no. Currently tracking Renault 182

If not, I could always track the TT I suppose. I have just spoken with David from bhp and he has pencilled me in. He said they don't over book the days so should be able to squeeze me in either way Maybe you should bring that spare gearbox of yours with you

Broken bonnet release handle replaced. Front left tyre horrendously delaminated after last day. Binned. Need a nice dry day to take the slicks (Dunlop ex VW cup tyres) - Optimistic!

They're ex VW Cup semi slick competition tyres, that have now worn all resemblance of tread out, but still have plenty of rubber on them. So, as they were designed, they weren't originally a slick. But they are now. And damned grippy they are too Currently tracking Renault 182
