good lad 2live - should be a great weekend. I will contact them for discount on ten cars.

Ooooh, I'm a possible :twisted: just dependant on when it has to be paid for

northy
28-01-2010, 16:06
I have spoken with circuit days.

They will give us a 12% percent discount on the track day – making it £170 a car

BUT to get this deal the following conditions apply.

1. We need to pay end of March.
2. We need to pay in one go – so that’s £1750 total for ten cars. I will handle the payment if people want to pay me direct.

Please if your name is down can you get payment to me ASAP. If I can not get the ten cars the deal is off – so come on guys spread the word.

Tommo
28-01-2010, 17:14

Extra Info: There is free tuition for the day as well. I think I need it :)

I can pay now, but would rather wait till end of next week when I get paid and my heavy used bank account can relax a bit if that's ok.

STILL TO PAY
Leighanne

STILL TO CONFIRM
Evogone - Read pm's - no response
Jon - not read pms
Jamie - not read pms

Come on lads - please can you let me know one way or another if you still want to come. This is unfair as the people who have paid want the trackday for the discounted price. If i cannot get 10 people then the discount is not going to happen.

if you have not made contact by the end of the week your name will be removed from the list. As i need to seek alternative people who WANT to come.

Hey Toms, we can compare diffs mate, see if yours is any louder etc than mine...yours has done really well to not need any maintenance so far.

Could do some camping, though at my age I cant handle more than a couple of beers or else I end up a cabbage and unable to move the next day, let alone drive.

Tommo
25-03-2010, 15:14
Yes Wobba we can compare diffs, mine is old and loud now, think it is due a refurb tbh, the last one was 8 years ago! Make sure you keep on top of the gear box oil changes and it will be fine mate

Wobba
25-03-2010, 16:25

Wobba
28-03-2010, 00:44
hmm... I'm going to try and limit myself and not be out literally all day, otherwise it will cost an absolute fortune!

Going to need to stock up on tyres too :( Does anyone know where the best place to get R888 SG's is? Or any other recommendations for road legal slicks? Currently using the Toyo super soft compound.

Mate, the R888, especially the softs, are silly money now :(

Still, if you want them email camskill and they will give you a discount code and a link. Still expensive though. My R1R's came to about £360 inc vat/del.

Many are turning to Hancocks track tyre now as it is about £50-60 per tyre.

Wobba
28-03-2010, 00:47

Mat.

Mat it really depends on how you go mate and how your car is. Some people go everywhere in 1st/2nd gear whereas others use higher gears and some come into the pits more. It's not just all about driving don't forget, many like a good old chat and a break here and there.

It's the only alternative to Toyo's (other than v. expensive Yoko's) that I know of for track days :( . The R1R's are slightly cheaper but still a lot.

Tommo

I'm hoping to get some Hankooks for Anglesey, even if they aren't as good as the other trackday tyres, the price is right!

Camping is fine at the circuit and we have assess to the shower block.

Think i remember you from the RS day at Oulton-you were running the red mk1 cup racer?


woo, another 172 to keep it real

Yup, although having just looked mines a fair whack slower than yours. The SC conversion must be pretty decent-imagine yours must be rapid!

Must admit, i didn't really get chance to speak to that many people on the day. You're briefly in one of my vids as you came out of the pit lane on your warm up lap-awesome looking car.

This is my bus:

haha, yeah no worries Rob, long time no see, be good to catch up!

Don't expect any heroics though, I've not done a trackday for over a year, so won't be pushing hard at all... mind you, looking at some of the cars going I think I'll be sat with the indicator on for a lot of it... couple of GTR Nissan's, Lambo, Atom, Megabusa... scary!

haha no worries, same from this side to, I havent driven the Williams for nearly two years, will be my first time driving the old girl tonight!

northy
27-08-2010, 13:30
what MPG, tell u something u must be rolling in it to run that car as a daily!

either that or u have pixies drinking the stuff when its parked up. Always putting fuel in the feker.

U need more than 2 jerry cans, a full tanker should do u!!!!

Tis quick though jon. I am enjoying my time with it at the min, although i have a constant humming in my ears now.

Will look forward to a few hot laps by its driver on monday!

Aah well, least we'll be in the same boat in that respect! I'll come out for a few laps in yours too Rob, I remember it being rather quick! Still running cams and Wayne map?


Yup still running the same as ever, albeit with slightly dodgy rear panel resparay by myself, and 2 whole years of rusty sills but I dont need to tell you about how the cars attract feckin rust, its a piss take, its been sat in adry garage for 2 years and still looks like left overs from the scrapyard!!

Are you going down on the Sunday and camping Jon, me and Stu will be doing and having a few beers the night before!

FlamingMonkey

Per their website you need to take your driving license. I'd take both the paper and card element.

On the day you'll need to turn up at 8 for driver talk and sign the disclosures neccessary.

That's it as far as a I can see.

Just want to say thanks to everyone who came on the trackday – to say that you all paid and were booked on for the start of April was a great achievement!

I first posted up Wed Jan 20, 2010. So its been a long time coming! :lol:

What a cracking day – I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did – nice to catch up with everyone and see some new faces there too.

Couldn’t have asked for a better day, and no brake downs or accidents always make the event a great success. Thank you guys!

TBH – Jamies trophy was the first one I have seen do a full trackday without crashing and being written off lol. Remember Cadwell a few years ago!

Jon – well impressed with your car pal. I could have gone around all day in that.
Rob – nice to see u and the OHX! Will have to get another one booked for 2011.
Matt – I cannot believe I have finally got you on a trackday in that cup lol.
Wobba – will check to see what footage I have of your car (if I had the camera recording)
Wobba - please come more prepared next time lol. I lost count of the stuff u had borrowed. Think u need a new rank on wc.
Jamie – thanks for the passenger ride. Went very well from what I saw. Did u get to have a doo with Tommo on the way home.
Tommo – I didn’t stay behind u for long as I couldn’t see with the sun reflecting off your super polished paintwork haha.
ThRaXaIR - how come i saw a HX on the rear corner of yours ?
Leighanne - always a pleasure x

How lets see pictures of who has the most sunburnt face :winkey:

31-08-2010, 11:22
Thanks to northy for organising this, had a great day, my car performed well too and didn't break! Thanks to Mat Brown for giving me for a few passenger laps in his cup racer and LA for taking Lou out. Yes the bank holiday traffic was a nightmare, took ages to get home... :cry:

Wobba
31-08-2010, 16:43

Be cool if you have some footage though, and yes, thanks for organising the day. That car of yours is bloody quick. Sure it's a 1.8???

sorry i didnt get chance to take u out steve - i was inundated with passenger ride requests all day. So it was who ever was around at that time that got in, i did come looking for u late in the day but i heard you had gone.

Looked through my footage - the only williams i have is of Tommos, im behind you for half a lap.

Wobba - yes totally standard 1.8 16V. The tyres really help. Bet it wouldnt be the same story if i 1/4miled it. Did u get a comparison with jon in his 172?

Hi Guys, I was there in this MK2 Golf.
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b207/wh00sher/UK%20TRACKDAYS/Anglesey300810/NLP_5568-1800x600.jpg

I`ve been on a lot of trackdays and often, car clubs arrive and are quite frankly, mobile chicance. However, I felt I had to join up to say that the manners and driving standards of the Clio Williams drivers was superb. Using mirrors when necessary, following the overtaking rules and generally being very well behaved. I hope to meet you on track again. :thumbsup:

I have photos of most cars from the day, my son was out taking pictures, here is one of Northy to start, I`ll try and go through the rest this week, but if anyone has a pressing need to see their car sooner, let me know what colour / reg it was and I`ll look ASAP.

Hi Nige,

Its Rob we spoke on the way out, when you pulled me over.

You seemed to be going very well on track!

In fact I seem to remember you at the Nurburgring in 2008, you were there when we were I believe.

If you have any pics of ours N252 OHX Williams 3 that would be good.

Cheers

Was very pleased to see my loved ones again, you know who you are :D

No worries with the passenger rides guys was my pleasure. My favourite had to have been Louise when we went out trying to track down tommo when he didnt have ANY idea she was in my car.... Proud to have shown her, her boyfriend on track. 8)

Pleasure to meet you steve also, that car is ****ING AWESOME! We need a club meet around this car.....Cheers for the little rally shesh!!

Hello Nige and thanks for the kind comments about our drivers. You seemed to go past me a good few times to be honest – not sure what your Golf is running but hopefully it’s something like a 5.0 V10.

It’s funny as although I have spent a good amount of time slagging off some of the drivers there who weren’t paying attention to the rules and doing other annoying things. I did mention in passing to a couple of others there that there was someone in a Golf who was very polite – so that makes me feel a little better!

I was in the red (some may say pink) Renault Clio Trophy.

Hello Nige and thanks for the kind comments about our drivers. You seemed to go past me a good few times to be honest – not sure what your Golf is running but hopefully it’s something like a 5.0 V10.

It’s funny as although I have spent a good amount of time slagging off some of the drivers there who weren’t paying attention to the rules and doing other annoying things. I did mention in passing to a couple of others there that there was someone in a Golf who was very polite – so that makes me feel a little better!

I was in the red (some may say pink) Renault Clio Trophy.

I`m running a 2.0 16V ABF engine, standard apart from a set of GSXR ITB`s I fitted the other week. They are on a super safe map at the moment, until I get it to a dyno. Its putting out about 170 - 175HP at the moment, but hopefully has another 5 > 10 when its properly mapped.

I find that people who have driven a fair few laps on the ring (I`ve just passed my 1,000th lap milestone) are much more aware of other traffic, I suppose its usually as a result of sharing it with coaches and bikers :lol:

Hi Nige

If you have any pics of L185 FBV, would be much appreciated if you posted them up. Thanks for the nice comments about our on-track etiquitte, to be honest I spent most of the day moving over for everyone with it being my first trackday, most of my time was spent learning how hard I could push my car in the corners, braking points, racing lines etc.

My first few times out were diabolical lol, wobba went onto the grass, and I almost followed him and northy went past me like I was stood still at one point! I slowly started to learn the limits of the car which really shocked me just how fast I could enter and exit the corners, the car felt so good driven at the limit, them Toyo R1R's and gripper diff help. Think I nailed my best laps on the last session I went out. I'm still buzzing about it all now, when's the next one northy :wink:

( Sorry i didn't come over and say hello, didn't see you about much.
Nice looking car though.
Mat.)

Hi Mat. Not a problem mate you were all busy play out on the track,

(sorry i didnt get chance to take u out steve - i was inundated with passenger ride requests all day. So it was who ever was around at that time that got in, i did come looking for u late in the day but i heard you had gone. )

Looked like you were busy all day with passengers, We had to go before all the roads got busy.

( Pleasure to meet you steve also, that car is f***king AWESOME! We need a club meet around this car.....Cheers for the little rally shesh!! )

Pleasure to meet you too LEIGH-ANNE, glad you liked the car.

Again it was great to meet you all, we will have to arrange to meet up some time.

Nice pics Nige, did you get any of the black clio with the white speedlines? Your golf was pretty rapid, i know i moved out of the way to let you through a few times throughout the day-your car seemed to be handling real nice.

Some good runs, will certainly give you another run for your money next time Leigh-anne! lol :lol:

What kind of lap times were people getting?

Hi Nige, thanks for coming over to tell us about our good track manners lol :)

My car was the blue clio, with gold wheels.... ;)

L468 TAC

Your Golf sounded very fruity and you were clearly going well!

Here is a video with your car in it if you have not seen it already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0O0-EdAb-Xo

I had a great day, and the evening prior as well was made fun with our mini drinking session, so thanks for that lads. Shame about my wheel bearing. Replaced now though!

Hi guys, had a great day in the orange Atom on Monday. I seem to have spent most of the afternoon following Northy round so I'll post some footage up (not of him facing the wrong way at seamans) when I get a chance. I'll try and do it tonight, if not it will be Tuesday I'm afraid.

northy
02-09-2010, 14:04
haha hi Drinks, yes but unfortunlatly that was my girlfriend driving with me directing. Was my fault we half spun lol.

i have you on footage too later in the afternoon so will be good to compare lines


I did remember u in my mirrors at one point later in the afternoon but not close enough to warrant moving over - so i hope i didn't hold u up???

Will look forward to the videos, i have started watching some of them already.

I think we were going around at roughly the same rate over the lap, maybe you were a touch quicker. You certainly kept your momentum up through the corners, i'm hoping you were on slicks and got on the power earlier than I did.

Was good following you, I think you adopted the same line as me through rocket towards the end of the day. Which is unusal as most people stay to the left for the right hander that follows...

I was lucky enough to go out with John the instructor 1st thing in the morning and he took me around. I was missing nearly all apex's before.

I find the tuition very beneficial and always go better afterwards.

Last time i did Anglesey was 3 years ago when it was restructured, so i was a bit rusty! Takes me a few hours to fine tune myself lol.

At rocket i was trying to hit the second apex ontowards peel (same as you) Peel and the hairpin took me a while to get correct.

I think i have you on film, but will need to check. (as I'm not sure what car i am actually behind) other than its a open top space framed thingy

And i am on slicks, however they are very very old and the rubber is cracking / tearing haha. I need them to get on the power early as i only have a 1.8 16v engine. So did struggle for grunt!

Watching your vids on openpitlane I think I was turning in too early on a couple of the corners. It's difficult to stay out for so long. Where it was particularly obvious was coming off the home straight.

thanks for the video Drinks - what specs your car ? as its got a short rev range from that video.

What kind of lap times were people getting?

Looking at my video, my best was a 1.50:12. My laptimes were dropping throughout the day and that was set 4 laps from the end of the day, so I was still improving.

My car is a fairly standard spec Atom 3 (normally aspirated Honda Civic Type R engine running 245bhp) it revs to 8500rpm but just rather quickly.

You make it all look so easy in your video :D

Next trackday is cadwell 25th march, going to be an epic day with a good mix of cars and a couple of guys who race in the NSSCC in 1600cc and are very quick.
