Uh oh, you've mentioned the dreaded "W" word.

For those who cannot get enough, there is another TDO using Zandvoort that evening.

The current list of conteners is pretty empty, so you practically have the track to yourself. (7 cars so far)

(the noise levels from 17:00 to 19:00 are the same as during the day)

 

They use euro rules, so outbreaking and corner overtaking is allowed.

 

Just pop into viproom 17 (up the big stairs) if you want it. (150 euro for 2 hours)

Odd shower for cast for Friday

[techieboy]

Now you've really gone and done it.

 

Well, I guess the question is do you want rain or not? If I put the R1R equipped wheels on the car (or more accurately leave them on) then I can almost guarantee that will be the wrong choice and it'll be baking hot sun. If I elect to go with the R888 equipped wheels instead of melting the R1R's, it will almost certainly p*ss down all day either at the track or along the route there and/or back.

Putting on the 888's will give you a good excuse to abstain from all that bothersome driving

Way too early to trust any weather forecast... Just hope we are lucky.... Guess I could bring the other wheels with me but not exactly what I,d call a wet tyre..rsr

I would settle for a a few showers in the morning, for those that want that challenge and a dry afternoon.

It has been boiling the last 2 trips with zero rain.

Best indications at the minute are generally dry, sunny spells with cloud and the odd light shower.

 

If its like Spa again I'm selling the car

I'll take that forecast! sunny all day, 24deg and 25% chance of light showers.

Looks very hot on the thurs with overnight thunderstorms.

techie can you put the r1r's on please as i would like a hot day

 

thanks.

 

 

 

 

 

so as i have put 2 helmets in the boot and few bits for the trackday my boot is now full

 

so i come to the conclusion that we should probably make a list of if people are bringing tools/jacks etc etc

 

mainly because i have no way in getting clothes let alone jacks and tools in the car aswell and if i require them i would much appreciate borrowing someone elses who has a boot that is more useful than a silly s1 boot

...is what you get when you buy an impractical lotus !!

 

You could make use of the passenger footwell ?

 

Aren't Lee and Pete trailering as a minimum so they should be bringing some tools along.

I will be bringing a microfibre cloth and some demon shine if that helps ? 

[The Batman]

Ah thanks for offering to clean the lotus. That would be much appreciated

Looking at Paul's instructions earlier, I'll only manage one lap before I get black flagged for noise anyway.
