Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away!

Al - I will be wearing a Race Suit as I am sure many others will be.

It cant possibly look as piss-take worthy as my old yellow suit :D :lol:

the plan was to enter the new oldford sprint championship,but i dont think i can afford to do many rounds as there are all over the place, and ive just sold my trailer aswell :lol: so i could do some local sprints that are driving distance
could do with some gloves aswell :lol:

Al, go to http://www.aemc.org.uk and head to the Sprint calender, should be a few local ones for you!

Myself, Gerry, ESL enter most of these events!

And take a look in the BP sprint section, if you can make any sense of it :D

thats only cos you sprint boys hijack any thread to chat about sprints ;)

back to topic ... trackday attire is flexible so long as long sleeved top, trousers and helmet.

If you have the gear though, it makes sense to wear it. Gloves help for grip (if you get sweaty hands like me) or for fire protection. Possibly the most important fire protection as in a burning car, at least you can pull yourself out ..........
