Hi guys there a thing on at knockhill on Sunday if anyone would like to show their cars. Be trophies and stuff. Plus drag racing on the lunch break if you fancy it

[Blueboy]

Yep we're going with Bruces Clubby and my friends two Golfs, a mint MKIV R32 and his mint MKII 16v GTi, see you there. Been told to be in before 11am for show cars

[Eddie]

Cool. See you there buddy

[Dobboy]

I'm on track for the R53's first outing, hopefully it will be dry for everyone. Mind wrap up! [emoji3]

I would have no prob, but if I end up in the first or second group on after lunch then it's a rush to get round and join. Maybe, see how it pans out.

Why not put yours on for the track day and we'll get in the same group?

Ask for the group you would like to run in at the time you sign on.

[scooty]

what sign on,,,,i only have a email receipt from sage,,,not nockhill,,,,,i guess the ref number is redeemable against trackdays but it dont say what date,,,,numbers are limited so i am hoping it refers to sunday and i dont turn up on sunday to sign on and told its fully booked

Ah sorry, though you had booked Knockhill directly.

[scooty]

it was on there web site,,,,sage is just puchasing software,,,,will just call them 2 morro,,just thought there would some sort of response from knockhill

[GreyRacer]

I see what you mean. I never use the web site but just phone and pay with one of the office girls. But I'm a regular on their books.
Hope you have a good time when you are on. Drive safe.

You'll get booking confirmation from KH tomorrow probably, just checked my emails and confirmation was the day after Sage email.

I usually just book, appear at gate and give name, then go in.

Park up in the paddock and follow the crowd over to where you'll sign on, and show your driving licence etc.... Mind bring it.

They'll ask if you are a road car or track car, and your bhp..... I think everybody lies! As I've been in the road car group lots of times in my 205 and I'm the only one with a back seat haha.

I think they try keep the less than 200's and more than 200's together, and road and track cars together. I'll be going less than 200 road car on this occasion.

Give me a shout if you see me or need any info etc

I'm driving mine up so having to think of some way of storing a set of wheels, tools, and my jack....just in case [emoji53]

The weather forecast looked good when I checked earlier [emoji469] [emoji3]

Good day today, apart from loosing it at between MCIntyres and Butchers, and ending up up to the wishbones in the gravel and having to get pulled out.

Schoolboy error, going too fast on cool tyres [emoji15]

A young dude spectating has captured it on video and is gonna email me it.

Red neck

15mins later the guy from Aberdeen with the GP1 also went cross country after duffers.

Tons of stoppages and waiting about, typical for HotHatch days, but good to get on and stretch its legs a bit.

We were watching you down at Duffus you were fair licking on with the rear offside wheel lifting more as you went over the kerb :cool: My friends and myself are looking for a cheap S now as we all fancy a shot and going equal shares, ones a mechanic and painter so will come in handy!

Were you? [emoji3] you should have came and said hello in the paddock, I met another two mini guys and sort of hung about between sessions.

Was it tripod'ing? with the big oil spills after duffus it was a leap of faith as I turned in and went over.

Now I know what I have i can start to develop the car a wee bit, it was a shift and a half keeping it on the road with US and OS.

Don't suppose you got any pics?

Sorry I took my good camera and lenses but it was too cold and a hands in pockets day up there :laugh: I was surprised at the GP1 racing though as the car was mint and he wasn't holding back ! Does the car race better on the 15's as I have a set of cheap team dynamics 17's that are very light and thought about keeping them for if and when we find a car and sticking some 888's on them as will just be a track car

[Dobboy]

Never noticed much difference other than tyre grip, my 15's had A048's on them. The guy with the GP is a very experienced driver I think and has a collection of nice toys, and using it for what it was meant [emoji3]
