Guys don't go getting there too early as there's formula super league racing there today with a expected crowd of 50,000 people.

Might be advisable to stop for a pub meal before you get there to allow time for the traffic to leave and the garages to empty

[DynaMight]

mmmmmmm drizzle! wet drizzle....

[deej]

Snap. Did you have any dry sessions

[DynaMight]

yeah about 3-4 dry sessions depending on your opinion of dry could had been a lot worse!

Just got in with me chips. Many thanks to everyone for keeping me in food and a working bike, and especially to bangbum for driving

carcking day with a bit of damp thrown in.
donington what a cracking circuit,i do love the craner curves nothing like sweeping round the outside of someone on the way down.
the novice group had a big mix of experience and i quite enjoyed having a play with a few of the faster one's.
the only downside was some riders braking halfway down craners and messing up your lines
had a bit of a problem with some guy on a mille but all in a great day.

sorry we left u lot behind on the way home but i didn't fancy a trundle home and i managed to keep up with the smilers in our strangled van.

Many thanks especially to bangbum for driving

no problem sweet lips

[Smiler]

OMG! That was just awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My very first track day ever.... didn't fret about the 'no mirrors', the everso slightly damp conditions to start out with, or even Bambam actually! (I am cured at last xx)

One or 2 pics for ya all....


Managed to bag a garage for the day

Going out in the wet:





Midgy man (I think he was waiting for Peter Jackson to call about the next Lord of the Rings film and apparently tests childrens clothing in his day job)



Track stuff








Around the pits:




After 3hrs of Photoshop I have managed to superimpose Simon onto a background of a wet track


Common?

Yup
