Jude Posted July 18, 2002 Share Posted July 18, 2002 At the Club Track Day on 28th September there will be 6 maybe 7 sessions at 15 minutes a time. Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get It BOOKED NOW Went on my first a few weeks ago (had my 7, 4 months) It was great !!! about 6 sessions of 20 minutes (well needed rests between) Buy some cheap Booties (£35, Karting ones) much nicer to drive in Helmet £75-300 + Huge grin for a month £Free Good luck (take it easy on first few session, you do want to drive home!)

edmandsd Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Saturday 28th Sept at Lydden will be my first track day 😳 All I think I need to add to the car is an oil cooler, mirrors and some brake lights. Here's looking forward........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EFA Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 You'll need mirrors for sure. 'cause I'm going to be there. Are you in the "novice" group Dave, or the "copmpetition licence holders" group. Bit of a dilemma there..... But will Aves, Count and the rest of the North Kent possy be there?? I heard Chris Clark will be in the paddock, but not actually entered as he prefers looking at peoples engines when they are stationary! Geoff - Cheque and form have gone out today!

edmandsd Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 The one in between Arnie i.e. Limited track experience/modified cars. How about yourself ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumster Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Don't know about Aves and Count but I'll be there. Chris Alston 1800 Supersprint - Loud and Proud 😬 ...well it only sounds fast officer 😳 Brooklands aeroscreens for that real open top motoring feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Westie Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Is this only open to Caterhams, or can some of us from the other side come along. I'll try and keep out of the bank 😳 The car in front is a Westfie1d (or was) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECR Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Sorry Westie, 7 Club driving days are for Lotus and Caterham Sevens only. You are welcome as a spectator/passenger of course. This will be a new circuit for me so any tips you can pass on about banks and the like...............

New Barbie Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 I plan to be there. Arnie, surpirsed you think AVES will be there, given that evening after the trackday, you and I are going to be at his wedding reception. I'm pretty sure Mrs Aves to be will not be a happy camper if a certain Blue VX is blatting around Lydden on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Westie Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 ECR I might come along to check things out. I was hoping for some laps practice before the racing the following day. The car in front is a Westfie1d (or was) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edmandsd Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Mine's in the post tonight Geoff for the 'mid' class (limited track experience/modified cars), can't recall what colour that was though ? So Arnie are we in the same class then.................if I need mirrors to see you it presumes you're behind me ..............or lapping me ☹️.....................and before anyone says anything I know it's not a race in any event.

greg Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 What's the noise limit? Anyone got a noise tester in East Kent during the week, or Sussex @ the weekend I could use/borrow ? Greg, Q 86 NTM (Green 185BHP XF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I reply to every thread Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 I did mention it to her. As the Wedding isn't 'till 4 I reckoned that I could put in a few laps & push off about 2. Firmly vetoed. As tradition says that I can't see her or communicate from about 6pm Friday night I reckon I'll still make it, as what she doesn't know won't hurt. Mums the word though & if I stuff it I'll need a lift to Penshurst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jude Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Greg - noise limit is 105db Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Barbie Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 AVES I think the idea of you sneaking some laps before the other event of the day is a great idea and I for one will do my part in assisting with any subterfuge required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 Thanks Aves. I might pass that with a bit of luck. Greg, Q 86 NTM (Green 185BHP XF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reply to every thread Posted August 8, 2002 Share Posted August 8, 2002 I'm struggling to find a triple layer Nomex waistcoat at the mo. Pantiles Groom reckons there's no call for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
