Just a quick post to introduce myself to the membership.

Mike Payne introduced me to the forum a week ago, and i've already booked my first trackday of 2007 from seeing here.

I recently got myself a new toy from the Porsche Open Series which i'll be running at the track days i attend. Previously i've done numerous days either in my Boxster (soon to be on its way) or my Subaru Impreza.

Tracks done; Brands, Silverstone, Snetterton and Abberville and a couple of trips to Nurburgring.

Cheers.
Nick

Hello to Bigpower - loving the 944. I used to have a 944 S2 a number of years ago - standard one i'll add. Great fun.

We hey, i'm doing quite well at getting people on the site now......
Wlecome buddy, can't wait to see the new purchase in person....

I've joined Nick at several of his track outings.....
My favourite is Brands GP, I liked Silverstone GP, Snetterton in the wet is such a laugh...
Abbeville was with the 'lotus on track' guys, with 1 to 1 tuition from Andy Walsh.... The man is truly amazing and is a graet instructor, never getting flustered and gently pushes you and teh car to new limits!

Andy Walsh is a Master Instrutor ..... Extremely highly recommended as Mike points out!! I've never gone around corners so fast .... gain me over 20mph each corner!! Unbelieveable! :o
