Limited spaces left - Open 9 till Dusk - spectators allowed. IMO a bargain. Can be booked through Donington Park website (Trackzone are a subsiduary) Anyone else going to be there? cheers

See here http://www.vx220.org...=ST&f=10&t=3716

Not quite certain why we would be doing a Redline day at Bedford but not this one :blink:

I might pop up Sunday and have a gander and see how its organised/run - anyone closer than me (N'ton)??

How did he come off there?

A mid-engined car through Craner Curves on a damp greasy track. Easy peasy :D

Thanks for those Cheeky - didn't know you were about - you should have come over and had a chat. Event was OK - not as good as Brunters possibly because of the weather and there were one or two tw-ts on the track (Fiesta got black flagged) All in all great time and very good value and I only did one 360 which wasnt bad. The MR2 was a bit of a mess - we thought something pretty bad had happened. What you probably dont know is that the Red Circuit Car (Jag) span as he drove to the incident - we were all p-ssing ourselves in the Pits. cheers

Gary, have alook at one of the later photos, he came off well before the entrance to Kramer, after the exit from the previous corner.

Trackzone don't have the best reputation in the business I'm afraid, one of the reasons they're so cheap.
