Does anyone fancy helping out a trackday virgin on the 5th of Dec, at Abingdon.
For a start, no i'm not paying but the more the merrier as long as it's dry, if not then I feel I may need as much space as
possible.

What do you need help with?
I can let you in on the following........
Surface is OK, not the best it's quite hard on tyres as a lot is concrete rather than tarmac.
It's an airfield but don't think that having an off will be plain sailing, there's a lot to hit at Abingdon in the way of low brick
and iron structures in the long grass.
Coming out of the final chicane there is a large grass bank off to your right, it shouldn't come into play, however I saw a Clio shoot off up it
and come to rest on the top of it, quite how the driver managed that I do not know.
Plenty of room to have a play with your car, fuel 2 mins away at Tesco/Esso in Abingdon and food on site in the way of burgers etc (usually)
MSE run good days and don't stand for any nonsense, firm but friendly.
Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but my duties are largely ceremonial.

Mr P.O.F,
Cheers for the comments, I'm only at Brize Norton up the road, I think your last line was the most reassuring, being a novice.
Is it open pit lane do you know? and do novices get highlighted to others so they can give me a wide berth
As for tyres, I've done 20000 miles on these uniroyals that came with the alloys, wearing them out would be a good excuse to upgrade when I move
onto proper circuits.
Cheers once again Dan.

Can't make 5th - got a business meeting that i can't duck. At least it is in the UK this time.
Let me know how you get on - I'll likely not venture on track now till next year.
Cheers
