What sort of lap times do you manage?

Good isn't it.

Did your brakes hold out. I did suffer with my tyres over heating quite a bit.

Did you manage to time any laps without traffic. Paul did 50ish sec lap in the Red Baron AIR.

Traffic was a problem.. MX5 spinning, MGBGT so slow, MR2 slow and sideways but having fun.

Brakes did 'just' about hold out for me yes. Small track.
Tire on NSF did'nt make it beyond 1/2 day before spitting off its tread Nasty things. Bridgestone slicks suk'd

Great track tho.
I reackon with my Clio Cup Michelin slicks a sub 50sec lap is possible.
Something to try for at least.

Traffic is a problem they were running the slow Caterfields last time out. I think they were in convoy. Silver Taxi got in the way as well.

There is another day in October (see my first post) I'll try and get the Briskoda Brethren to partake.

Not really for the Octy's this track but good fun all the same.

Note to oneself, Bridgestone's suck.

BTW, Bill, is that your beeza in the first shot? Looks like your alloys but different grille Oh and those DS2500 are running nicely. Though I now need slicks and make a mental note too about bridgestones

Anglesey is one of the cheapest circuits for weekend hire...for a shock try Oulton park on a summer weekend saturday 200+

Possibly looking at a small sprint circuit down south wales way aswell, similar or less than anglesey, mind far shorter aswell

Yup, Yup and Yup!

Count me in as it must be a whole 15 miles from where I live and I have'nt pulled my finger out far enough to get over there yet., I am thinking of having my Furby Revo'd before then so it could make for an entertaining day. Will I need a strut brace as well with that much wallop under the bonnet?

If anyone is going over there, mail me and I can do a 'live' weather check for you so you may not need the self destructing slicks after all!

Cheers

Rossi

Following fun at Trax yesterday, and especially as I missed out on Brunters earlier in the summer plus the abandant of the S. Wales trackday in August, I am thinking about booking here:

http://www.bookatrack.com/-pB?590

Would be good if one or two other Briskodians could make it, still plenty of places available.

I Really enjoyed my trackday at Anglesey - went with Track action, preffered there layout as it was open pit -- might be a bit restrictive having timed sessions - much easier going when you can come and go as you please.

Track Action


me having fun at the hairpin
