I'm interested in the BMW on the 22nd, will check if I can make it and confirm.

 

Is there an age limit? I could maybe bring a friend but he is 23.

Yes there is an age limit. 8 year old scare the life out of me when driving 23 is fine.

Come up and do one of these at a proper (read Northern) track and I'd be well up for it. :-)

 

ZR is a cousin of my civic and I could do to know how to drive that since i've been racing it!

Hi Steve, it'd be great to get a chance to compare with your times in the same car - hope you can make it!

Steve will be analysing on board data for most the day Tony so you'll get plenty of seat time!

Hi Tony, it's one of the reasons I signed up, I know we both know Bedford pretty well and are both pretty quick on track so though it would be a good day.

 

I'm in by the way, won't know about my mate till Friday though.

 

Matt, do you want me to bring a vbox?

Very kind of you to say that Steve but you are certainly the faster driver! I am hoping though to improve over the day and should a fun day in a different car comparing to you and others.

All the time, by 3 different ARDS guys :) To be fair I am fairly good at it now, it just took time to learn.

 

Tony and I have done some work with an ARDS instructor in the past and it was very useful. I'm quite good at analysing data so can give recommendations based on that but that is no substitute for someone who can translate the way that they would be faster.

 

Your call though I'm sure the day will be interesting with or without.
