one trackday and im hooked!
And I wasn't even driving,went to Oulton with afew mates yesterday and spent the whole day laughing.spent most of it in the biggest shed
there,a £300 supra,overtaking not many,but a couple of lame farts in 30k's worth of evo's,some of the time in riches m3 which overtook
near enough all the evos and an embarrassed new gtr,afew big spins in the day but the 5 cars we went in all came home in one piece!I'm now
saving to take the striker next summer....

Ahh yes, another life changed forever with the old 'its free the first time'!
If you have a Striker then you will realise what all the fuss is about, they are sooo much fun at the track, a different league to tin tops.
Then I would say you would go looking for a turbo! but as you already have one, I don't know, RGB?

I went to my local circuit track day a couple of years ago to give my newly built MK Blade a shake down, Ive been watching racing and sprinting my tin
tops at Lydden for the last 40 odd years, now I am completely addicted. Luckly there you can buy individual sessions rather than the whole day so it
keeps costs down. I try to go every month during the summer and it's brilliant chasing other cars, I am no means the fastest but I have fun and
cannot get enough. Get out there Chris you will have a ball................

I couldn't drive a greasy stick up a dog's arse but it's never stopped me!
Our first car was an XR2i Fiesta with 105bhp. Never stopped laughing all day.
Next came a Furyblade followed by three years building our present Phoenix Fireblade.
In terms of fun quotient I couldn't choose between them.
Aren't trackdays ace!!

Oh I'm definitely doing it,finances are the only hold back,my cars faster than the m3 which basically ruled the day bar the seriously expensive
stuff,but its also thirsty,and I was with him on the 2 trips to fill the tank,forgetting the tyres its still an expensive day out,aiming for about
may...

If you could run 13" wheels the tyres needn't cost quite so much Chris.
