Have just booked onto Easytrack's Rockingham day, 14th May. It's a 103db day, open pitlane, £185

I've done a couple of trackdays there in the past, and really rate the circuit. It has some challenging corners on the infield, and of course, you get to play at Tom Cruise for a bit on the banking.



Anyone else fancy it?

Easytrack's website

bit like anglesey then.
it was 2 years ago when i was there, can't actually remember wether they actually tested me or not

Any more?

Good day yesterday, the weather was fairly kind to us, with only a slight shower .... not enough to change off slicks.
We had a bit of an early bath though. The header tank had been weeping coolant in the morning, wasn't sure why... no overheating, but after lunch it got worse. It culminated in a good dump of coolant down the side of the car onto the rear right tyre, resulting in a harmless spin turning off the banking. Suspect head gasket failure.

Still, can't complain, we got enough good sessions... Rockingham is superb!

Video, me at the wheel, with a spin at the end

There should be another up overnight, Pete deiving.

And some pics.

will try and get some of my footage up tomorrow, have only had a quick look through it so far.

took the exhaust apart today and there is some packing missing so maybe that's why i got to loud at the end of the day.
don't know how many there is but apparently i triggered the noise meters 4 times on my last lap by about 1db.

I would like another track car Andy, may get one or build one next year, Chris Maries car is tempting though, a well set up race winning car in the right hands
