EDC Track at Santa Pod

All gal said EDC track is very similar to layout on weds - main difference is a long run up to allow 80mph + initiations

cant stress enough how much fun it is

Oh loving that, i want to hit the limiter in 3rd flat out so this will be great

Thanks for your anti-understeer suggestions Wednesday BTW Lex

*I spun off and ended up litteraly 1" away from the fence on the beginers track, im going to go straight through it on this one

Nuts, i didn't realise this was so soon

I'll definatly be up for it on my next one though, will there be another before the next beginers day?

Hmm payday... I wonder if I can get some wheels and a wheel stud sorted by then, and hope the car doesn't cook itself with the lame cooling.

When you say less experienced do you mean beginners?

Nice one dude Santa pod have a policy of not cancelling dates they have publish - however if they continue to cost more than they make it is enevitable they will get pulled next yr

Yup beginners will be able to have fun practice left and right skids in the kidney track - then have a even more fun trying to link the EDC track with your new found skills

They will even open a play pen if you really ,really want

Erm Bollocks - your plenty good enough to have a go at the EDC track

May not link it perfectly and do a 100 point run on ur 1st try but i guarantee you would have even more fun that last weds cos the EDC track really is so freeking cool
