Brilliant thanks Duncan :woohoo:
Track time is far too addictive, I can't wait to get out there again. This is going to start getting expensive :roll:

I spent all day yesterday and today watching the video of me and Fezza chasing each other around Snetterton and am trying to work out how i can be quicker. Maybe change gear a little earlier, maybe take a take a different racing line, maybe upgrade the suspension, maybe ditch the T1-R's for some 888's, maybe.....blah blah blah
Is this how my life will pan out after my first trackday?
Damn that bug that seems to have bitten me. Is the trackday ideal really this addictive?, and is it normal to want to go racing and miss a day of work?
What have i got myself into :-k

From my limted experience (sorry, very limted experience) it's made SO much better when you do the dastardly and muttley as per you and Fezza, or the two Stu's and their M3's.
I never tire of watching the video of them duelling, and it'll be the same with your video no doubt. I've even got the soundtrack of them tearing past the pit wall as my text alert tone, a little sad, but it makes me think of the best day I've had in years!

Dastardly and Muttley :lol: I love wacky races 8)
Watching the "Stu's" around Snetterton did kind of intice me into the murky world of trackdays. I'm still amazed that two very different cars/drivers can be so close. I'm not sure if me and James teared past the pit wall. But we had the best fun trying :D And will continue to do so \:D/

it certainly i s addictive, im here in Houston reading this and all i can think of is getting back home to see my mates at a track and have another great day with people who have the same outlook on life as i have.

I'm glad that Stu and I spurned u on to get on track and get stuck in. It was only Sept 08 that i had my first go on track for over 2 years away, now i can't wait to get back on track and try to improve my skills and car craft.

Can't wait for the next one guys.......
