Cadwell trackday 17th Oct

Anyone else booked onto this one?

Friday, 17th Oct with Trackaction. Apparently there are only a few places left if you fancy it..

I keep looking at it and the Oulton day on the 12th Nov (they're doing a deal on the 2) but I can't make up my mind.

Bugger didn't know about this one. Was planning on Cadwell on the 13th but work commitment scuppered that so booked Mallory on the 10th instead. Would love to book this too, but it's got to be suicide booking another session in a BEC so close after tackling Gerrards!

How long you wait after Mallory won't make a difference; It won't heal itself... Though after 6 days this year with only one burst hose and some worn out tyres as a result, I'm loathed to push my luck.

Cakes? ... we'll have to lobby Trackaction to equal the cakes offer.

I shouldn't grumble mind having pilfered various barbequed delights at previous T/A track days.

Si, six days is ample time to fit your spare engine!

I don't sleep in my tent in June July or August, so why would October be any different!

Me and tents don't really get on well..

Been keeping an eye on forecast for a while now decided to take the plunge this morning rather than risk waiting any longer, I missed out on Blyton Sunday due to weather watching, Fridays forecast at the moment is good.

Still looking good for tomorrow Jon.

Some videos from the day's happenings..

First one, an early session following a mate in the black Megabusa, then ending up chasing a fairly rapid Porsche.

Next up, chasing Bigfoot's R1 Striker untill he drops a wheel on the grass...

And lastly, trying to get a bit of a chase going with Jon Ison.. it wasn't to be.. Jon had a wobble, I baled out, more grass tracking!

(Sorry for the picture, I forgot to clean off the camera lens.

)

I'm sure he'll pop up and give us the word.. He did hit the tyre wall quite hard, but after a paddock MOT the Striker looks to have held up remarkably well.
