i made it home!
Got back from the ring last night. My god some people have weapons for track cars.
I had a few minor issues with the car but nothing in the grand scheme of things.
No bikers of the group fell off but one of our group wrote his E36 BMW 323 off, whoopsie.
Ill get a full write up and pics up over the next few days. I also got a full lap of me and maize round the ring. We only did slow laps but was still
a lot of fun.
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!
Please read my ring story:

Well done! Sounds like you had a great time! Slow laps are the way on the ring! The way i see it its the pleasure of driving round such a historic
track and would rather take it slow and enjoy it than push it and damage the car and maybe myself! Looking forward to pics!

Wow that's wet. I did not see it that wet. Was that Thursday?
It was wet on the England legs of the trip but very little rain while out there.
There was a bankers fast evo that blitzed my friend in a R8.

Not sure on day as i havent spoke to him yet but pretty sure it was either that day or 1 either side of it.
It runs 507 bhp so its possibly this but cant confirm till the weekend when i see him.![](/images//smilies/smile.gif)
