There's plenty of run-off areas and it's unlikely you'll break or over-stress anything, with the possible exception of tyres (they can take a pounding). It's a great evening out.

Couldn't have said it better so I won't try - it is a great evening out with no pressure.

Any more takers?
Come on do something exciting to tell the grandchildren. With Dunsfold and Bedford Autodrome being turned into housing estates, track days will soon be a thing of the past. |

I'm actually surprised Santa Pod has had a new surface put down. Only a matter of time before that disappears. It's situated on the booming Cambridge / Milton Keynes belt. |

Wow - I didn't know that. What a huge shame. Does that mean that PalmerSport is being wound-up as a business, or does it have plans to relocate ? Maybe build a new facility somewhere else (although maybe Palmer is cashing-out and retiring).

I hear Santa Pod is having houses built around it, and council already talking about noise levels. That will be another one that bites the dust. As soon as the first occupant takes residency they will be crying out "it's a bit noisy here, make them stop!" So do these things whilst you can |

All set. I'm looking forward to getting a feel for the Track capabilities of the Ohlins Road & Track coilovers.

All set. Kind of... Have only limited use of second gear! And totally unsure if my new exhaust will pass the noise tests.
gtsussex is not able to attend any longer, so if anyone is interested in a free space then get in touch!

Hey Guy, long time...I hope all's well. A real shame you can't make it, but if you manage to pull it out of the bag at the last minute it'd be great to see you there.

Jeez Terry; last year you almost lost a wheel and now the gearbox is playing-up. Bring the 335D - these Porsches sound a bit flaky

But you're right, the 335d has been super reliable noted what's been thrown at it.
