Dont forget to use FCCUK specific code for 10% off. Price will rise nearer the date, its still at 'Early booking' price. Its dearer than Feb dates as March is considered as 'in season' so circuits charge more.

Hehe I couldn't help the WUM in me just came out.

Anyway, enough of the in house competition. What of our MR2 owning friends? I hear they got owned at Brands, and whimpered about they'd be better in the dry. Hmm, and we wouldn't?! Given my "entry level" 350 pony coop would have been comfortably the biggest power coop running at Brands if I'd made it, wonder what they'll make of our 400 and 500 plus ponies stretching their legs?

I think they'd need a 2 lap head start in a 1 lap race laugh

:stirring: smiley is needed for times like this? chinny

Pmsl laugh

To be fair if its a dry day the MR2's should do a lot better but they'll need a lot more horses to match our Coupes.

I'll check their website later to see what's going on over there.

It'll be a fun day either way as long as not to many people caused sessions to be stopped, our biggest problem Sunday was the amount of people spinning off, yes the track was very wet but some guys and girls (yes U MrsCC) were driving just too fast for the conditions.

Bedford will be a good test day for Spa, I'll be running a slightly different setup and new exhaust so it'll be a tinkering day for me.

rolleyes

My absence was due to me having my children with me that weekend. The car was ready, willing and definitely able!
Fact is my 20vt is one of the most regularly tracked coupes (at least once a month), and I always drive to and home from the track, and it's not let me down.

I've just popped over to the mr2oc forum to check on the interest in the Bedford day.

After I translated found it (trackdaze?! crazy I mean, that's well kool innit?), I saw no action worthy of noting. Still, I suppose you MR2 guys are used to that too wink

15 all Vinny tongue

Yup most of the mr2 guys don't seem to be interested in tracking their cars for some reason frown but its quality not quantity I guess wink

I dunno where the 'trackdaze' thing came to be honest... I'm with you on that one dude

Got a couple of guys from the TSS and ROC interested and I'll be posting on the mr2 championships forum too once the new year is here

If nothing else at least my car will be there so you have something nice to look at for a change laugh

Best hook up with someone on here, there is very limited room in 'Paddock' / Live track access, but you can leave your car in the main carpark and blag a lift over. No charge for watching.
