Yeah i had a good day in all, lots of driving time! Course was annoying, always ended up going too fast into the first corner and overshooting massively. Hahah. Got it later on though, but was kinda inconsistent in the new car but for the first time driving it, it did well! Seems to have loads of grip and hooks 3rd nicely, when i dont miss and stick it in 5th. Stock clutches are the best, i reckon i'd of shot my diff out if it hadnt of slipped.

Seems pretty fast!

I have this strange smoking issue that comes and then goes for ages.. It has to be a breather/crankcase pressure issue coupled with oil surge surely, as it didnt miss a beat on the dyno (for 9 hours?). Any thoughts?

And thanks for all the help and that from everyone, Ian, Steve-o, tony, the two guys whos name i didnt catch, my parents and the lovely lady! Good shake down all in all.

TerryC · 04-05-2008, 12:17

I am pleased to say that the day was great and i want to thank all drivers and staff who made it a first class day. The goods news is that Silverstone people were very pleased with the way the day went and the area can now be used ongoing.

Everybody observed all that they were told with regards to speed limits and behaviour excellent!!!!.

Those who were there can see the potential for that area and we are looking into operating various options of track design for the future.

The track as Paz said was there for transition practice at an acceptable speed Plus the smaller track was very similar style of track.

Also a final hanks to all the staff who made the day flawless from marshalls to instructors and to Daz. Stig and Chunk

sammysideways · 04-05-2008, 12:26

was cool day. nice to see some peeps like terry and co,chunk,stig and the wife,tom,alex,malcom and anyone else i missed. REALLY enjoyed doing driftskool despite all 3 of us feeling very poorly. be really happy to do it again.

saw bits and bobs of other peoples driving..standard was great. paz your car rocks!

think terry and co deserves a huge thank you for putting on a ace day.

ashfrancis · 04-05-2008, 12:30

Terry sent you pm regarding license payment, you disapeared at the end of the day to take the cones back before i could give you the cash what the paypal details and ill send it straight over

AndyC · 04-05-2008, 13:06

Great day skidding! Thanks to all for putting on a great day!

Congrats to all that earned thier licences!

My pics are up and in the media section...

Ian.G · 04-05-2008, 14:35

first drift uk event I've been to in a while - no driving for me - just the odd bit of marshaling and shakedown time with the pazza - the f20 engine sure does rock.

The brother hooked the car back up quite quickly which is good. Only had a very short drive in it but it 'feels' like its going to be able to do magical things.

It was quite interesting to watch the KE (Tonys ? I'm never quite sure LOL) and Paz twinning - especially in the middle part of the track that was set up yesterday. It was the slowest part of the of track and some lower speed direction changes - the F20 powered car got its heels again very very quickly and without clutch abuse (or not that I could hear any from where I was standing). Surprisingly not very much in it off the line at the start.

As always very well run event - looking forward to driving at a few of these days in a few months time

Twas a nice day out.

Ali · 04-05-2008, 16:49

Awesome day out, really enjoyed it all, hated the car on coilovers till about 2pm with more grip than i'm used to but tyre pressures soon sorted that in the afternoon, was fricking awesome fun twinning with Ben (mrclaas)

Look forward to the next one!

rgfinn · 04-05-2008, 20:24

i had a v consistant day

consistantly could not get through that slow right hander mid track!!!
apart from that had a great day, thoroughly enjoyed it. thanks to all for organising/running

chunk · 05-05-2008, 00:56

Very cool day

Some much improved driving from ALL drivers. I really enjoyed watching you all out there. The track layout was a bit slower than i anticipated it would be, but it was nice and technical and there are lots of tracks that BDC use that are really technical. Transion practice is always good, and i thought i'd chuck in a left hand entry

I much preferred using that section of Silverstone over the ATC, so good work to the organisers.

Big well done to the people that achieved there BDC licenses, weither Am or Pro am

all other's, keep on trying, just that bit more seat time is all thats needed.

Thanks again

Rich
