Cadwell Park

Post by siR_tom »

Hi,
Not been on here for a while but thought I'd wang up a quick thread with some pics of my first ever track day.
I was at Cadwell Park a few weeks ago. I must say the track and the weather were not suited for a novice at all the track was completly flooded.
The little civic done me proud and didn't miss a beat, exept some understeer and spinning up at 110 lol.

Well here's a few pics of me and my mate in his 220bhp justy turbo.

Well done Tom. If a wet, scarey, Cadwell hasn't put you off, nothing will :D

Sounds great Tom

Glad you had fun and I look forward to seeing you and the car on track in 2009.

Cadwell is scary in the wet. I bet keeping your foot in at 110 was interesting :)

Awesome place - and good on you for keeping out there in the rain.

The ring is the wet is an 'interesting' experience if anyone fancies ice-driving :D

Thanks for comments guys.
All I can say is it was and awsome experience. I picked up the whole track driving thing up pretty quickly which was handy.
My friends justy is crazy fast for what it is. It weighs absolutly bugger all. He seriously needs a weld in cage to stiffen the chassis though.
