Really tempted - replacing a few bits that need doing early sept and as long as this gets done then i've got some tyres that need finishing off...

A few vids to share from my day at Castle Combe last Friday. Was a dry day, and only 30 cars participating, including a 750bhp GTR, a supercharged Lotus, several modded Japmobiles, all of which the old girl competed strongly against, and had a fair amount of interest in the paddock (5 pot warble and general quickness!). Car held up well throughout the day on it's return to the track after a 10 month absence and a bit of a mechanical overhaul. Added to the list are now: Rear pads/discs (metal on metal for last 2 sessions, 135mph braking, hmmm) Rear wheel bearing humming a treat Broken bonnet release cable (bah) Out of shape front tyre which stopped short my final session by 10 mins. Some of my sessions (chuntering apologised for in advance!) http://youtu.be/16ocrPatVnchttp://youtu.be/Fj1NFfoj460http://youtu.be/2vOKhiUQAcwhttp://youtu.be/vaC0883w9j8http://youtu.be/1oXEiTqgQIsAnd, one of my camera in a supercharged lotus, driven by a successful Scottish professional racing driver http://youtu.be/Lui8jxsQQU4

Well done dan that was spot on with the vids and write up. It's good to see your coupe back on the track showing that they can still mingle with bigger budget machines ever when you are down on power etc compared to them.
It's good to see that a sensibly modded coupe can do this and not break the bank even still on standard internals arnt you?
Either way good read, good vids and impressive driving (even with the grey EVO blocking you)

My 1.17 should give you a challenge Dan Then again, the Caterham is up for sale so I can't commit to the trackday just yet.
