Hi Ian and welcome - I am sure you will love it 8)

there is a huge danger though that you will become addicted like the rest of us poor people trapped in a world that exists in countdown timers to the next track day

Welcome to the club Ian

We tend to meet at Snetterton as we are running events there most meet evenings during the summer months. Like the virgins track night next week, we have a meet in the evening after that with normally close to 100 cars attending of all shapes sizes and specs ranging from small power to massive but all with the intention of using them well

Last month we had an absolute blast drifting (or trying) around the wet skid pan and have lots more planned - look in the calendar for most of the events.

i drive a classic shape impreza in cool grey. done a couple of mods to bump the power a little. it is more of my hobby than anything else as it spends more time parked up than going anywhere lol. but if what you are saying is true about track days etc, its going to have a shock!!

It gets kinda addictive Ian thats all - you can be as hard as you feel comfortable on your car but drive smoothly and you will be fine.
