You need like 12.30 ish?


12:30 would be spot on!

To be honest, just book a time and if it doesn't work out with my other ones, I'll possibly just try to sell one of my sessions with the other club.

Rob I doubt it'll just be WR solely, but it's possible that if we get a lot of us out there, it'll be majority of us lot...

DS2500's are quite a good pad on track, I find the hotter they get, the more they work, but then my car weighs nothing...

I need to get my car fixed before this... Got a problem with getting out of 5th gear and stuff... Also need to find a new place to mount my camera gear.

Will be good though, I pray for good weather tho... I don't fancy this again.

Back end was constantly stepping out during that session lol

usually you all start in a sorta staging area... like 2 or 3 lines of cars... then they let the lines out 1 by 1... problem is, you should give your brakes / tyres a chance to warm up before you go full attack mode (I usually give it a full lap) - but some people take the piss and go round at about 30 mph so 1st lap is a bit chaotic, with the regulars overtaking everything and the newbies poodling along... nothing wrong with either parties doing that by the way, but it just gets a bit annoying if you wanted to have a nice little race with a few people (not race as in competitively but just for fun) - as by the end of the lap they could be miles behind or you miles ahead etc.

Then the only hope to see them again is to effectively lap them lol, some sessions i've never seen some people who i knew were out with me, as they were doing similar pace but on the other side of the track to me...

This is why multiple sessions are usually good though, especially if you're new, 1st session can be used to find your feet (I guarentee my morning 1st session will be a lot slower than later) - get used to the car, the sensation of being on track etc, and then you slowly get quicker throughout the day.

Paul_J, Its sounds like you've done a few sessions at Combe Just wondering if you have any idea of what sort of lap times your cars doing?

nothing that amazing, it's usually hard to get a clear lap without some car slowing you down.
http://hk.youtube.com/watch?v=9fmxP5iaD0s (no idea why that's all japenese... google gave me the link)

infact no clear laps in that... and the earlier vid in the day I had clear laps but was taking it easy as I had just got on track after fixing my car and wasn't 100% confident in it.

Donnas VXR

More of a daily hack now. Wouldn't want to abuse it on another track day Plus the Conti 3's it has on the front are terrible

Might be worth asking though, never been to combe and have always wanted to go.

If the tyres are shot they'll need replacing anyway....

Edit - or do you mean not good tyres rather than worn

Edit - checking bank tonight for everyone who has paid - for those who have not paid sort it out.
