Brands Hatch - taster session - 9th April
 
Booked myself in for another session on the 9th of April with a mate of mine. We're doing the first two sessions - late afternoon/early evening - taking it in turns to drive/passenger in Red.

Be great to see some other ZSs on the day .... Anyone ?

I would love to but for some reason I doubt they will let me once they see the car! Anyway I very much doubt if the zed will be on the road by then. I need to spend a bit of money on it and all the money I have left each month is my holiday spending money.

Craig-ZS180 07-02-13 08:55 PM

I would book it up now if I could get there in time but I would only just make it for the last one of the day after finishing work. It's a shame your doug the first 2 sessions as could've had a joint last one out there with the hatches..

Steve mead 07-02-13 09:56 PM

daytona365 08-02-13 06:26 AM

Steve mead 09-02-13 07:52 AM

peterzs 09-02-13 09:31 PM

I'll Give You a 20 sec start Dan, dont want it too easy!!!!

Everyone knows thatYELLOW cars are better - Get used to it .....

daytona365 21-02-13 09:19 PM

Going to see if I can book day off soon, who is still going???

peterzs 21-02-13 10:11 PM

I am, just bought 2 new front tyres!!!

Dan1971 22-02-13 06:33 AM

New tyres BEFORE Pete .... I'd have been tempted to use up whatever was left on the old ones ....

Yep all booked up and I'll be there, and hopefully with a working set of vis motors to get me back up there in the power band I should be ....

stamford 22-02-13 07:04 AM

Guys be careful with new road tyres on track, when they get worked hard they overheat and large chunks start peeling off. Scrubbed or part worn are much better.

peterzs 22-02-13 09:25 AM

Thats why I bought them now, on the last MoT got advisories that both front inner edges were worn. Will be scrubbed in by the time Brands comes round.

I also need a new rear for the Mot, as it had a cut. Asked for a front wheel alignment at the time and the guy said it wasnt worth it as the tyres were shot.

They had lasted well, not worth pushing it till April and hoping they would hang on.

vanishing days 25-02-13 02:14 PM

Might have to join you guys for this

vanishing days 25-02-13 02:17 PM

Do I need a crash helmet or anything ive got a cycle helmet doubt theyd let me use that tho

peterzs 25-02-13 05:41 PM

Crash helmet, I'm afraid. They do hire out at £10 per session, if you get in quick!!!

Good to see you.

daytona365 25-02-13 06:21 PM

And dont forget, wear something that will cover your arms. No uncovered arms on a track day, so jacket and trousers............I hate marsahlling track days in the summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

daytona365 28-02-13 09:50 PM

Well day off sorted,and booked in for the 17.40 session. So two yellow ones Pete......................................

stamford 28-02-13 10:14 PM

Dan1971 01-03-13 06:57 AM

Yes please mate .....

Kev's gonna send down his tester so if you want to leave any more with me, I can test them when it arrives.

If I'm not here - I'm working Saturday - leave it in the alley by the door to the garden mate, or I should be in Sunday.

Craig-ZS180 06-03-13 10:49 AM

Its a shmae everyone is doing the earlier sessions as me and a mate are now looking to book up for the late session on the 9th now. Spoken to him and hes quite keen to get his first taste of track action in his cupra.
